Jack’s Mannequin
Hostage
This might hurt, come back to earth
Come back to earth
We don't mean to drag you down
Thin air, slingshot
You always find somewhere to wander off
When I need you around
So you wait until the last song ends
You say I was your only friend

But I won't hold you hostage
And I won't set you free
I always leave the lights on
And you return to me
Please don't lose the keys
I won't hold you hostage
I won't hold you

Pain recedes, all things will pass
And this is gonna pass, pass
I'm just trying to keep you calm
Oh, in the face of all your dreams
They might soon slip away
Then miss you when they're gone
And we waited for the cab outside
I offered you a place to hide
But I won't hold you hostage
And I won't set you free
I always leave the lights on
And you return to me
Please don't lose the keys
I won't hold you hostage
Please don't lose the keys
I won't hold you hostage

This might hurt, come back to earth
Come back to earth, yeah

I won't hold you hostage
And I won't set you free
I always leave the lights on
And you return to me

No, I don't want your ransom
Just say you'll never leave
Just say you'll never leave
I always leave the lights on
And you return to me
Please don't lose the keys
I won't hold you hostage
Please don't lose the keys
I won't hold you hostage
Please don't lose the keys
I won't hold you hostage
I won't hold you
