Jackie Evancho - Case 23 Lyrics

Jackie Evancho Lyrics

"Case 23"

I should've known better
We did this together
So this is it
I'm complicit
And I'm on trial

They pass out their judgement
What I say's redundant
All minds are made
Our price is paid
I'm going away

Ooh...
I didn't mean for this
Ooh...
No reward, but all the risk
Did the crime
Doing my time
Taking the blame for us

I heard you're the victim
You cheated the system
Well, life isn't fair
And I wouldn't dare
Dispute your claim

They'll say I deserve this
And my love is worthless
So I'll remain
Here in these chains
They'll forget my name

Ooh...
I didn't mean for this
Ooh...
No reward, but all the risk
Did the crime
Doing my time
Taking the blame for us

Oh, you were there that night
Twenty-three years to life
Still, you're justified

I'm taking ownership
While you're pleading the Fifth
I know you've got scars on your mind
Believe me, I've got mine
And you walked that line
And you made it out fine

Ah, ooh...
I live without shame
Can you say the same?
Take the blame
