BmDEm You make yourself a prisoner of me BmDEm You blind yourself so you don't have to see BmDEm You turn your life to a power above BmDEm You make yourself a hostage of love
BmDEm You turn from me you turn from the strain Devote yourself to the power again Distance yourself from all that we vowed You broke those rules you're my hostage now
BmDEmA
BmDEm I am a sinner and I am a saint I am a devil I am a ghost at the wake God feed the swell and pull of your tears as they break I am the limit of the load you can take
BmDEm You are the pulley and I am the winch I am salvation and you're herald of sin I'll take you beyond your limits of trust Ransom yourself hostage of love
DF#mBmBm You see we've been born again DF#mBmBm Since you've slept there in that lion's den den GDA You can not be saved GDA You gave your innocence away ohh
BmDEmA BmDEmAA
BmDEm I've turned my cheek and I've suffered the blow Truth of my story is widely unknown Word of derision I have swallowed with a smile For telling my story I have been crucified
BmDEm Now like a mad man I give my laurels to you Like a hero forsake my trophies for you No where disciple of this devil that is in the blood Am I not also your hostage of love
DF#mBmBm You see we've all been born again DF#mBmBm Since you've slept there in that lion's den den GDA You can not return GDA Until your innocence is earned
DF#mBmBm And you seek out to live alone DF#mBmBm Though it hurts to make it on your own own GDA You cannot be saved GDA You gave your innocence away ohh
BmDEmA You will be made a hostage of love Hostage of love hostage of love
