lyrics

I’m cabled up to the nines
Strung up on a rack
You leave me no escape
And where there’s no escape
We can fall in love with you

You captured my heart
Imprisoned us in dreams
Scattered screams and real
Strange friends and careless
Strangely careless

Why did you take me?
You didn’t, I know
Stockholm Syndrome
Why did you take me?
You didn’t, I know
Stockholm Syndrome
Why did you take me?
You didn’t, I know
Stockholm Syndrome
Stockholm Syndrome

We pay you to love you
To treat us like a curse
To show us crumbs of abuse
And where you have abuse
You can get used to it

You took us from the streets
Asked them for a ransom
We fell for it
You’re handsome
Profiteer and gambler

Why did you take me?
You didn’t, I know
Stockholm Syndrome
Why did you take me?
You didn’t, I know
Stockholm Syndrome
No need to rescue me
Why did you take me?
You didn’t, I know
Stockholm Syndrome
No need to rescue me

No need to rescue me
