By Crooked Steps

I’m addicted to feeling
Stealing love isn't stealing
Can't you see that I understand your mind?
I’m a walking believer
I’m a ghost and a healer
I’m the shape of the hole inside your heart
Now I looking for a brighter side
Crooked steps would take me higher
I don't care if you wanna to cry
I’m a soldier for hire
Killing all you admire
And you live in denial but that will change
Now I looking for a brighter side
Crooked steps would take me higher
I don't care if you wanna to cry
When blood is raining down
It cuts a deep deep river
And we're diving
Yeah we're diving
My crooked steps right behind you (right behind you)
My crooked steps right behind you (right behind you)
My crooked steps right behind you (right behind you)
My crooked steps right behind you (right behind you)
I’m a walking believer
I’m a ghost and a healer
Can't you see that I understand your mind?
Can't you see that I understand your mind?
My crooked steps right behind you
My crooked steps right behind you
My crooked steps right behind you
My crooked steps right behind you
My crooked steps right behind you
Right behind you, right behind you, right behind you
