Hostage

Keep you falling in circles, in the dark
Better, better be careful, hearts break hard
Tied up in my headspace, got you dizzy
Love me, love me until I'm all you see
I got stars, in my eyes
Twist you around (ah-ah)
I'll get you high, yeah
Heaven is a place we found
Lightning in my energy, I'm all you ever need
I got you on your knees, yeah, begging for it
I ain't let you play for keeps, but never play for free
I got you on your knees, yeah, dying for it
Keep my lover hostage
Better work for it if you want it
Keep my lover hostage
Nevеr need another once you got it, hostage
Sinking, into my ocеan, dreams like drugs (drugs)
One taste you'll be hooked, no, you can't get enough
Top shelf, tight but love only for the best
If you dare, I'll take you somewhere that you've never been
I got stars, in my eyes
Twist you around (ah-ah)
I'll get you high, yeah
Heaven is a place we found
Lightning in my energy, I'm all you ever need
I got you on your knees, yeah, begging for it
I ain't let you play for keeps, but never play for free
I got you on your knees, yeah, dying for it
Keep my lover hostage
Better work for it if you want it
Keep my lover hostage
Never need another once you got it, hostage
Fighting fire with my flames
Drive you mad, drive you insane
Cross my heart and swear to make you mine
Lightning in my energy, I'm all you ever need
I got you on your knees, yeah, dying for it
Keep my lover hostage
Better work for it if you want it
Keep my lover hostage
Never need another once you got it, hostage
