"Beautiful Criminal" lyrics

"Beautiful Criminal"

You're nothing that you wanted to be
Freedom that you wanted to steal
Do you even know what it means
Silence
Repetition that you're longing to keep
Like a shadow you're still trying to hold
Threaten everything that we know
What you [?]

Make the crowd love you
Just a little longer
Won't you raise hell
Better not alone
Leave them in a dust cloud
Planned our escape so well

Be my beautiful criminal
Beautiful criminal
My beautiful criminal
Be my beautiful criminal
Beautiful criminal
My beautiful criminal

A sentence that we both want to read
Race through the impossible night
Passion at the highest speed
Unite
We'll love them but we'll leave them behind
This car chase is black and white
A getaway plan from the start
Do or die

Make the crowd love you
Just a little longer
Won't you raise hell
Better not alone
Leave them in a dust cloud
Planned our escape so well

Be my beautiful criminal
Beautiful criminal
My beautiful criminal
Be my beautiful criminal
Beautiful criminal
My beautiful criminal

Be my beautiful criminal
Beautiful criminal
My beautiful criminal
Be my beautiful criminal
Beautiful criminal
My beautiful criminal
