[Verse 1] We've got a hostage situation Tough talk and less negotiation It ain't no fun now that I've become A prisoner to the one who's tryna save me, yeah [Chorus] If I give you everything you want Will you set me free so I can be alone? Don't you know my heart's already out the door? My love is the ransom (the ransom) Cause I gave you everything that you needed But you keep on increasing your demands You just don't captivate me like you did before My love is the ransom (the ransom) My love is the ransom [Post-Chorus] R-A-N-S-O-M You want a R-A-N-S-O-M You want a R-A-N-S-O-M You want a R-A-N-S-O-M (my love is the ransom) [Verse 2] If I lie to satisfy your ego If I comply, would you finally let me go? You're hanging on to a heart that's long gone Don't confuse my fear with love, it's crazy [Chorus] If I give you everything you want Will you set me free so I can be alone? Don't you know my heart's already out the door? My love is the ransom Cause I gave you everything that you needed But you keep on increasing your demands You just don't captivate me like you did before My love is the ransom (the ransom) My love is [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] If I give you everything you want Will you set me free so I can be alone? Don't you know my heart's already out the door? My love is the ransom (the ransom) Cause I gave you everything that you needed But you keep on increasing your demands You just don't captivate me like you did before My love is the ransom (the ransom) My love is the ransom [Post-Chorus] R-A-N-S-O-M You want a R-A-N-S-O-M You want a R-A-N-S-O-M You want a R-A-N-S-O-M
