To make love beneath the crimson skies, whilst our bodies softy burned
We blindly followed our own desires, paid no heed for the lessons learned
I met you as a stranger in an old hotel
The walls, they were crumbling, and you could tell

There was a sense of disaster hidden in the air
You gave me what I wanted when no one else was there

Cause I’m your lover in captivity
Your lover in captivity
Now, I’m broken and I'm in chains
And I’m naked for the world to see
I’m just your lover in captivity

So lock me in your metal cage, and throw away the master key
I won’t shake at the bars, for I know what it means to be free
The scraps that you give me are enough for me to keep hangin’ on
I know you were there at sunrise, but you had disappeared by the dawn

This crown is heavy and it's thorny
My minds feels cracked and I'm feeling horny

Cause I’m your lover in captivity
Your lover in captivity
Now, I’m broken and I'm in chains
And I’m naked for the world to see
I’m just your lover in captivity

Even my only friend, he done turned me in
The ancient curse that taints your lips, I know it, it must be sin
I know by now I can't trust anyone
I’ve had these scars ever since I was born

I've tried my best to hide this secret life
On the dressing room table I recall I saw a kitchen knife

Cause I’m your lover in captivity
Your lover in captivity
Now, I’m broken and I'm in chains
And I’m naked for the world to see
I’m just your lover in captivity
