When the first dog cocked a leg, I had him shot
When the first dog cracked, I broke his back
I'm running through the river saying
Life's a lie
Life's a lie
People make such a mess
And as for me, I found the Crime inside of me [saying]
Life's a lie
Life's a lie
And with my blessing burn this down
And with my blessing burn them down
As for me it's more than this, it's restlessly.
I found the crime inside of me saying
Life's a lie
Life's a lie
Singing come to me, come to me, oh come to me
With my eyes wide open
Singing come to me, come to me, oh come to me
With my father's eyes
I am the Crime
There's nobody else, nobody else
I am the Crime
With this song in the air
My intentions were clear
She came down on a bad train
She came down on the back of me
She came down on the back of me
So my life's wrapped up in time,
Oh my life is restlessly
Oh my life is not the same
Life's a lie, life's a lie
Singing come to me, oh come to me...
I am the crime
There's nobody else, nobody else…
I am the crime
