This is Stockholm Syndrome, by Yo La Tengo, from their fantastic "I Can
Hear the Heart Beating as One" record.  The verses and choruses mostly
go like this except the 2nd chorus kinda walks down to the Am in the 3rd
verse.  Not 100% sure of the words as they're a little hard to hear
amongst all the falsetto.
