Ransom
Music and Lyrics by Morgan James and Doug Wamble
Looking out the window of an empty room
Don’t know where I am or how long I been gone
Listening to nothing but the sound of my breathing
And the tears that hit the floor cause I’m alone
You’re the one that told me to surrender
Laid down my weapons and I met your demands
Then I gave up and I gave you everything
Laid down my heart in your hands
I paid I paid I paid
But you killed me anyway
Nothing I could do would keep you satisfied
I told you I would pay it all if you name the price
All the money in the world can’t show you my worth
But I spent it all so I could survive
I paid I paid I paid
But you killed me anyway
I gave I gave I gave
But you take it all away
Looking out the window with an empty heart
Don’t know where I am but I know I’m alone
Used to be that I was living for you
But I’m dying here now that you’re gone
