Stockholm Syndrome Lyrics

Lyric discussion by musicgirl100 

Cover art for Stockholm Syndrome lyrics by One Direction

Stockholm syndrome, or capture-bonding, is a psychological phenomenon in which hostages express empathy and sympathy and have positive feelings toward their captors, sometimes to the point of defending and identifying with the captors. I guess the singer is talking about how this girl has captured his heart and is holding it hostage. He can't get her to "let go" of him making him want to never leave her. This makes him fall more deeply in love with this girl even though she is now taken by another man.

@musicgirl100 I think it is all in his mind..

not physically holding him hostage
