ransom
(1.24.22)

she told me she could tell i was starting to fall
and i know you notice but do you see at all?
because i'd like to take in every inch of your being
if you say you're not a thief, what's this heart you're stealing?

you kidnapped my reasons
i want it to be real
when i can't see you
how do you deal?
you kidnapped my sadness
but held it for ransom
when you're not with me
how can you deal?

she told me she could tell it was different this time
i wonder if you notice; do you think it's a crime?
because i'd like to love you, someday or never
if you swear that it's true, where are your endeavors?

you kidnapped my breath
i want it to be real
when you can't see me
how do you deal?
you kidnapped my standards
but held them for ransom
when i'm not with you
how can you deal?

you kidnapped my tears
i want so badly to be real
when i don't see you how do you deal?
you kidnapped my tears
i want too badly to be real
when you're not with me how dare you deal?
