About

“Prisoner” debuted during The Weeknd’s show in U.K. and was dubbed “Mood Music 2” (like “The Hills”, which was dubbed “Mood Music” when it debuted during SXSW 2015).

That first performance did not feature Lana Del Rey’s falsetto vocals. When the track listing for BBTM came out and people realized L...

Prisoner Lyrics

[Verse 1: The Weeknd]
You bring good to my lonely life, honestly (Honestly)
It's hard for me to look into your eyes
When I say (I say) that I would be nothing without your love ('Out your love)
I feel the rush and it's amazing

[Pre-Chorus: The Weeknd]
Maybe I've been always destined to end up in this place (Up in this place), yeah
I don't mean to come off selfish, but I want it all (I want it all)
Love will always be a lesson, let's get out of its way (Out of its way)
'Cause I know (Ooh, yeah), all I know (Ooh, yeah), all I know (Ooh, yeah)

[Chorus: The Weeknd & Lana Del Rey]
I'm a prisoner to my addiction
I'm addicted to a life that's so empty and so cold
I'm a prisoner to my decisions
Woooo, woooo, woooo

[Verse 2: Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]
(Ah-ah)
I think I've been in Hollywood for too long (For too long)
'Cause I can feel my soul burning, feel it burning slow
But I would be nothing without the touch (Out the touch)
I feel the rush and it's amazing, hmm

[Pre-Chorus: Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]
Maybe I've been always destined to end up in this place
I don't mean to come off selfish, but I want it all (Want it all)
Love will always be a lesson, let's get out of its way (Out of its way)
'Cause I know (Ooh, yeah), all I know (Ooh, yeah), all I know (Ooh ,yeah)

[Chorus: The Weeknd & Lana Del Rey, The Weeknd]
I'm a prisoner to my addiction
I'm addicted to a life that's so empty and so cold
I'm a prisoner to my decisions
Woooo, woooo, woooo (Ohh)
I'm a prisoner to my addiction
I'm addicted to a life that's so empty and so cold (Empty and so cold)
I'm a prisoner to my decisions
Woooo, woooo, woooo

[Outro: Lana Del Rey]
I don't know
I get so wrapped up in a world where nothing's as it seems
And real life is stranger than my dreams
