Lyrics
Criminal
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
By your side, whatever may come
Guilty by association
Put me in chains and lock me away
Flip the switch, start digging your grave
Living by every word you speak
They come for you, they come for me
Won't say a word in my defense
I won't give in
I wanna doubt the whole of this
I'm gonna walk like I've been missing them
They said you are a fool, but I know you're the truth
To follow you must be criminal
No one thinks they have blood in their hands
But we all blamed an innocent man
Turned our backs and we left you alone
Sold you out and surrendered our souls
You were strong, you never backed down
Made a way for the lost to be found
You were accused, convicted, condemned
You gave it all, you'd do it again
I wanna doubt the whole of this
I'm gonna walk like I've been missing them
They said you are a fool, but I know you're the truth
To follow you must be criminal
I wanna doubt the whole of this
I'm gonna walk like I've been missing them
They said you are a fool, but I know you're the truth
To follow you must be criminal
I wanna doubt the whole of this
I'm gonna walk like I've been missing them
They said you are a fool, but I know you're the truth
To follow you must be criminal
