"Criminal" lyrics
"Criminal"
Have you gotten what you came for?
Did you ever feel ashamed for?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
Did you shoot down what you aim for?
Did you ever take the blame for?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
We'll meet tonight at your garden gate
Love betrayed with a kiss of fate
Bind my hands and bind my feet
Face-to-face at last we meet
In the darkened hearts of holy men
Truth is truth and must offend
Freedom dies as freedom lives
Fear just takes and love just gives
Have you gotten what you came for?
Did you ever feel ashamed for?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
Did you shoot down what you aim for?
Wold you ever take the blame for?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
The hand is raised and the people cry
The choice is made who will or die
Spirit claims what the flesh can't see
Reason lost in the mystery
Life is pain, life is trouble
Paths will cross and you're bound to stumble
Love will be what love will be
Love has got the eyes to see
Have you gotten what you came for?
Did you ever feel ashamed for?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
Did you shoot down what you aim for?
Did you ever take the blame (uh)?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
Love stands on fire
Love stands denied
Love arrives and love prevails
Tear my soul on a rusty nail
Thrown aside and torn asunder
Lightning flash and a crack of thunder
The earth will rise and the rivers flood
You break my heart, now the taste of blood
Life me high for all to see
Oh God, what have you done to me?
Have you gotten what you came for?
Did you ever feel ashamed for?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
Did you shoot down what you aim for?
Did you ever take the blame for?
Criminal is the name for
What you've done to me
For what you've done to me
For what you've done to me
For what you've done to me
For what you've done to me
For what you've done to me

Deconstruct me
And consume me

But I'm sick of myself when I look...
Big Head Todd And The Monsters - "Bittersweet" A little light looks through her bedroom window.
She dances and I dream, she's not so far as she seems,
Of brighter meadows, melting sunsets,
Her hair blowing in the breeze.
And she can't see me...
