Lock Me Up Lyrics

You're tellin' me
To live my life without you
I'd rather do the time
Put me away for a hundred years
If lovin' you is a crime
I can take the torture
I can take the pain
But tryin' to fight this feelin'
Will leave me nothing to gain
I can live with hunger
I can deal with doubt
But doin' without your love
Is somethin' I can't talk about
You better lock me up
And throw away the key
You better lock me up
If you takin' away your love from me

You took my love
And bound it up in shackles baby
My heart is behind bars
And more it seems
My feelings are incarcerated
I'm constantly on guard
Grab the silver bullets
Fetch a loaded gun
You say that I'll get over it
I'll give you twenty to one
I'll be your Dr. Jekyll
Till you turn me out
But find yourself some cover
The minute Mr. Hyde gets out
