[intro][melancholic piano ostinato] The moment that I let you in I knew I'd always let you win I took a chance now five years passed And I wonder if I'd do it again I needed you to trust me but you went behind and hurt me Now I don't know if I'll ever see you again [verse] I've been trapped for a long, long time I thought it'd be different with you in my life But nothing changed When I thought you'd break me out You just left me here locked inside [chorus] You took my heart like a thief Locked it up like a piece In a game you never let me play How can I get some relief When will my heart be released from the prison of your love [verse] I didn't want to test you but I hoped you'd rescue me from this misery, so weary of this dreary life stuck going nowhere All I wanted you to do was confide in me, trust in me Break my cage, I'd follow you anywhere [verse] But instead you kept me away I sat and I waited but my trust you betrayed Do you even love me? When I confronted you All you did was lie, you wouldn't let me in [chorus] You took my heart like a thief Locked it up like a piece In a game you never let me play How can I get some relief When will my heart be released from the prison of your love [instrumental interlude] [bridge] I wanted adventure All I got was indentured to be the comfort of your troubled soul [breakdown] I thought I could be trusted All I got was disappointment Now I feel like the greatest fool [bass drop] [chorus] You took my heart like a thief Locked it up like a piece In a game you never let me play How can I get some relief When will my heart be released from the prison of your love You had my heart on a leash But you broke it to pieces And left me here alone in my cage Now I can't handle this grief My heart won't beat now in peace It's locked away in the prison of your love [break] [outro] Oh, why'd I have to let you in I wish I wouldn't let you win you had your chance you let it pass But I know I'd do it over again I know that I can't trust you, but even though it hurts to think about I just wanna see you again [breakdown] You took my heart like a thief Locked it up like a piece In a game you never let me play How can I get some relief When will my heart be released from the prison of your love [end]
