And perhaps you were everything
I could never be
The exhilarating thrill
I'd come to love chasing
The sweet escape
I always longed to reach
So when you became
Another cage to keep me in
A rope that tied me down
I suddenly wondered
Was this Stockholm syndrome
An attachment to a captor
An illusion of freedom
When all along
I've been locked up now
More than I had ever been
