Mike Oldfield - Hostage - 2000 digital remaster lyrics

You can't speak; you can't sleep You daren't move; you're confused You never talk; you can't walk You can't feel; you're not real If I open my eyes, just far enough I can see what you're doing Go on, fight to the end; it's tough enough When you're on the road to ruin, yeah! [Chorus] You're a hostage of the heart Twisted 'round the smallest finger Two burning eyes are tearing you apart Turn your soul into a cinder There's no rest; you're possessed You can't leave; you can't breathe The door slams; your head hangs You blank stare; you don't care If you open your eyes just far enough You see the street lamps flicker Go on, fight to the end; it's tough enough When you know the end is bitter [Chorus] You're number's up; you're eyes shut You're on the brink; you can't think You want to run, but you're stunned You can't lie; you don't try If I open my eyes, look hard enough I see the blue light flashes Go on, fight to the end; it's tough enough Riding on the road to ashes [Chorus x 2] I'm a hostage of your heart You can twist me 'round your finger Your burning eyes are tearing me apart Turn my soul into a cinder Boy, boy, hostage of your heart Can you twist me 'round your finger?
