Razorlight - Hostage Of Love lyrics

rate me

<BR>

You make yourself a prisoner of me<br>

You blind yourself so you don't have to see<br>

You turn your life to a power above<br>

You make yourself a hostage of love<br>

<br>

You turn from me, you turn from the strain<br>

Devote yourself to the power again<br>

Distance yourself from all that we vowed<br>

You broke those rules, you're my hostage now<br>

<br>

I am a sinner and I am a saint<br>

I am a devil, I am a ghost at the wake<br>

God feed the swell and pull of your tears as they break<br>

I am the limit of the load you can take<br>

<br>

You are the pulley and I am the winch<br>

I am salvation and you're herald of sin<br>

I'll take you beyond your limits of trust<br>

Ransom yourself, hostage of love<br>

<br>

You see we've been born again<br>

Since you've slept there in that lion's den, den<br>

You can not be saved<br>

You gave your innocence away, ohh<br>

<br>

I've turned my cheek and I've suffered the blow<br>

Truth of my story is widely unknown<br>

Word of derision, I have swallowed with a smile<br>

For telling my story I have been crucified<br>

<br>

Now like a mad man, I give my laurels to you<br>

Like a hero, forsake my trophies for you<br>

No where disciple of this devil that is in the blood<br>

Am I not also your hostage of love?<br>

<br>

You see we've all been born again<br>

Since you've slept there in that lion's den, den<br>

You can not be turned<br>

Until your innocence is old<br>

<br>

And you seek out to live alone<br>

Though it hurts to make it on your own, own<br>

You cannot be saved<br>

You gave your innocence away, ohh<br>

<br>

You will be made a hostage of love<br>

Hostage of love, hostage of love<br>

<BR><BR>

<BR>
