Nathalie McLachlan Barnhill - Prisoner Lyrics

You’re sipping on that poison
That I poured up in your cup
Forty minutes ’til it kicks in
Boy, I can’t wait, you better hurry up

I like it most in the night when I can hear him crying
Full of delusion, confusion, so shocked and surprised
Could not resist, he was next on my list
And I couldn’t tell him

Gonna be keeping you my prisoner
I love you lots and, baby, news hurts
But don’t you cry ’cause I’ll be good to you
While keeping you locked as my prisoner
My prisoner

Oh, oh, oh
Prisoner
Oh, oh, oh
Prisoner

It’s our little secret
Nobody ever has to know
Let me know if you can keep it
Just nod your head now, don’t you tell me no

I like it most in the night when I can hear him crying
Confusion, so shocked and surprised
Could not resist, he was next on my list
And I couldn’t tell him

Gonna be keeping you my prisoner
I love you lots and, baby, news hurts
But don’t you cry ’cause I’ll be good to you
While keeping you locked as my prisoner
My prisoner

Oh, oh, oh
Prisoner
Oh, oh, oh
Prisoner
