EmDC You make yourself a prisoner of me EmDC You blind yourself so you don't have to see EmDC You turn your life to a power above EmDC You make yourself a hostage of love
EmDC You turn from me, you turn from the strain EmDC Devote yourself to the power again EmDC Distance yourself from all that we avowed EmDC You broke those rules, you’re my hostage now
