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 and
And you sing me lullabies and
But I can't help but feel that
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
The guise of sanctity? We love each other
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
I still remember crying, "No, no, no!"
As you read through my emails
See a counselor or something that
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 and
And you sing me lullabies and
But I can't help but feel that
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
The guise of sanctity? We love each other
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
I still remember when you
With a girl from the venue
Though she wasn't a lesbian
And you pulled out a knife, and, no
And yet nothing escalated
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
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
The guise of sanctity? We love each other
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
But it's Stockholm syndrome
