Stockholm Syndrome

Verse 1

When I'm alone at 3 AM, I check my phone, and it's a message from him
He tells me he knows I'm awake right now
I tell him, "Go away. I can't talk now."
He knows his cue to flood my mind in between all the cracks and folds that he can find
And so what's left, what's left behind is madness here and there
Madness here and there

Chorus

Take your pain and leave
Who cares?
Nobody's running away anymore; not afraid anymore
So, just ask yourself, "Do you love him or not?"
Or not (I'm in love)

Begging on your knees to stay
The damage to my brain that you've caused
Imagine how much all this cost
You can't imagine
But that's why you're not welcome here

Verse 2

When I'm alone caressed in night, he holds me close; closer than tight
I tell him I'm not in the mood right now
He tells me there's no way I can back out
He chokes my thoughts and strains my senses
Kills all my consciousness and numbs my defenses
He tells me that he is in charge in here
Oh, the magic that he brings

Chorus

Take your pain and leave
Who cares?
Nobody's running away anymore; not afraid anymore
So, just ask yourself, "Do you love him or not?"
Or not (I'm in love)

Begging on your knees to stay
The damage to my brain that you've caused
Imagine how much all this cost
You can't imagine
But that's why, that's why, that's why

(Ah, ah, ah, ooh
Ah, ah, or not
I'm in love
Ah, ah, ooh
Ah, ah)
