Lyrics When They Come for You - Tender

When They Come for You

You took me from the wild
Maybe you didn’t think that I would see them again
Girl, let me go
I’ve seen your face
Did you plan it all?
When you bound me to the bed, baby I was strained
I’m not in pain
I’ve seen your shame before
You’re the captor, I’m the captive
On the silk is the scent you left
You’re the way out, and I’m the way in
I’m complacent, I’m the taken
Oh, collapse into my arms and escape the pain
Oh, you and me
Worlds apart
We’re different entities
We’re crawling over hot coals, blood-soaked
Pain is our remedy
Ice cold, real slow
Love with the enemy
If I know that you’re alone
They will come for you
Why don’t you cut me loose
I’ve confirmed of the fear
And the risk you put me in
Emotionless evening light
When you hand me in
Will I lose you to something much bigger than us?
I’m the volunteer
I could disappear for you
Tied up by chance
You fed my flame
You took me physically
I’m yours so willingly
Oh, collapse into my arms and escape the pain
Oh, you and me
Worlds apart
We’re different entities
We’re crawling over hot coals, blood-soaked
Pain is our remedy
Ice cold, real slow
Love with the enemy
If I know that you’re alone
They will come for you
Oh, oh, when they come for you
Oh, oh, when they come for you
Oh, oh, when they come for you
Oh, oh, when they come for you
