Stockholm Syndrome Lyrics

Early James Stockholm Syndrome

[Verse 1]
Oh say it ain't so
If you really want to
But the eye in your eyes
It says otherwise
My Tasmanian tongue twist
At the unconvinced girl
But her mind has been made
The bricks are laid

[Chorus]
She waits and she waits
Just hoping I'll take the bait
I guess I'm in season
I wait and I wait
Hoping for a stalemate
In spite of our dreams
Stockholm syndrome
Where did I go wrong?

[Verse 2]
She's a leech on a leash
I just can't shake her off
And with each sip she takes
I'll just justify the loss
I swear the time before the last was the last straw
Now all that's left is the needle and blood to draw

[Outro]
She waits and she waits
Hoping I'll take the bait
I guess I'm in season
I wait and I wait
Just hoping for a stalemate
In spite of our dreams
Stockholm syndrome
Where did I go wrong?
