Hostage Lyrics by Dan Henig

Paper Planes & Hurricanes

2016

[Verse 1]
You pull me in
Darkness, blindfolded
I can’t see, anything
No Idea where we’re going
I don’t care, anyway
Cause it feels right
Take me, where you wanna go
You lean in and whisper

Don’t make a move, I’ll let you leave tonight
Maybe bandaged and bruised, but the pain will subside

So shut up shut up
You’re cuffing my hands
Get up get up
I’m at your command
I’m in your sights and you got me locked in

[Chorus]
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage

[Verse 2]
You said
Stick ‘em up, hands high
You’re mine tonight
Don’t say a word, alright?
You’re gonna be just fine
Dangerous, this love, serpentine
I take your hand and follow, trust you I’m gonna survive

Don’t make a move, I’ll let you leave tonight
Maybe bandaged and bruised, but the pain will subside

So shut up shut up
You’re cuffing my hands
Get up get up
I’m at your command
I’m in your sights and you got me locked in

[Chorus]
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage

[Bridge]
I’m not running ‘cause I love this feeling
Yeah my heart’s locked, you can throw away the key now baby
I’m not running ‘cause I love this feeling
Yeah my heart’s locked, my heart’s locked…

[Chorus]
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage
(Oh woah)
You're holding me hostage
