the richter scales - stockholm syndrome lyrics
[verse 1]
the moment you entered the room, my heart began to pound
and everyones’ eyes turned to you, but no one made a sound
your every word was our command (just tell us what we have to do we don’t want any troubles)
was it your charm, or was it the shotgun in your hands?
you fired two shots in the air in a captivating way
you needed a hostage to take to make your getaway
i knew all at once who it should be (oh please oh please pick me oh won’t you please oh please oh pick me)
you’d already captured my heart; why not take all of me? please pick me!
[chorus]
they tell me it’s not right
they tell me it’s not real
they tell me it’s a stress-induced reaction to the whole ordeal
they tell me that it’s stockholm syndrome, but i know it’s really love
[verse 2]
i cherish the time that we spent in your cozy hideaway
without any windows in sight, who cares if it’s night or day?
dreaming our dreams, planning our plans (i knew we’d be together now it’s you and me forever)
i wanted to hold you so much. if only you untied my hands, but i understand!
[chorus]
[bridge]
love is that feeling you get when you find something special in someone that no one else sees
everyone gives you this stupid advice, saying “you can do better” or “run for your life”
but i heard the sirens outside, and i knew that we had something special, but this was the end
you ran out the back door, but i saw you crying, and i knew the cause of all your tears was our love, and not the tear gas
[verse 3]
once, it was just you and me, but i let you slip away
now everyone’s searching for you, the feds and the cia
the secret it out; the story’s unfurled (i don’t know how they got your name i swear i didn’t tell them)
your face is all over tv; you’re the most-wanted guy in the world, the whole world!
[chorus]
don’t tell me it’s not right
don’t tell me it’s not real
don’t tell me it’s a stress-induced reaction to the whole ordeal
don’t tell me that it’s stockholm syndrome (it’s stockholm syndrome)
when i know that this time, it’s really love!
love!
