Stockholm Syndrome Lyrics

I still remember lying curled on my bed
With my face in my pillow and
My heart filled with dread
Because I’m independent
And each time I defy
You denounce all my value
And you tell me that I’m killing you

It always feels
Like something is wrong
But you’re my only one
This is where I belong
And you sing me lullabies
And stroke my head
But I can’t help but feel
That someday you will kill me

We love each other but
It’s stockholm syndrome
When does a family quit the guise of
Sanctity?

I still remember crying
No, no, no!
As you read through my emails
Telling me I should go
See a counsellor or something
That will fix up my head
Because I was so abusive
And you feel like I am killing you

It always feels
Like something is wrong
But you’re my only one
This is where I belong
And you sing me lullabies
And stroke my head
But I can’t help but feel
That someday you will kill me

We love each other but
It’s stockholm syndrome
When does a family quit the guise of
Sanctity?

I still remember when you thought
I was cheating
With a girl from the venue
Though she wasn’t a lesbian
And you pulled out a knife
And no I couldn’t believe it
And yet nothing escalated
So the memory’s defeated

You’d imagine that I wouldn’t want it
Anymore
There’s a root deep in my childhood
That is keeping score
It’ll never let me win the way I
Need to now
And there’s nothing I can do
And yeah it really fucking kills me
