Stranglehold Lyrics by Thomas Frederick

Archive

2018

[Verse 1]
Walk up to your door
I've never met you before
It's clear that I am unsure
Of if I'm doing the right thing

But now I'm inside
Without a place left to hide
Do tell me what you decide
And let me know when it's coming

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm faced with an issue
Because I'm feeling trapped
But when I'm looking at you
You tell me to relax
And I can barely move
You hit me with a slap
And I've lost my life
Lost my life just like that

[Chorus]
And still nobody knows
It kills me, oh God it shows
Behind your heart of gold
You've got me in a stranglehold

You've chilled me to the bone
And caught me all alone, alone
My fate left to be told
You've caught me in a stranglehold

[Verse 2]
Staring me dead in the eyes
I realise not everything
Comes to a happy end

Preparing myself for what lies
As my prize
For believing you could be my friend

[Pre-Chorus 2]
What the fuck's gonna happen?
What will you do to me?
Meeting my assassin
Such perfect irony

And my seatbelt's fastened
I'm speakin' truthfully
When I say that I'm laughin'
When you outright lie to me

[Chorus]
And still nobody knows
It kills me, oh God it shows
Behind your heart of gold
You've got me in a stranglehold

You've chilled me to the bone
And caught me all alone, alone
My fate left to be told
You've caught me in a stranglehold

[Bridge]
And hence I'm facin' it now
Your hands to take me down
And who is left to bame
When nobody else knows your name

I've got to try to escape somehow
Before you try to snuff me out
I could try to beat you at your own game
But I'll never compare to your acclaim

[Chorus]
But still nobody knows
It kills me, oh God it shows
Behind your heart of gold
You've got me in a stranglehold

You've chilled me to the bone
And caught me all alone, alone
My fate left to be told
You've caught me in a stranglehold

And still nobody knows
It kills me, oh God it shows
Behind your heart of gold
You've got me in a stranglehold

You've chilled me to the bone
And caught me on my own, my own
My fate left to be told
You've caught me in a stranglehold
I'm locked up in your stranglehold
