Criminal
We've only just begun
To see what we've become
And all consequence is fleeting when you're in my view
And all of my pride is kneeling before you
I can't let you go
I can't let you go
I can't take it slow
No, I can't take it slow
And I want you to know
I want you to know
You are just what I need
Oh, I'm gonna take her as my own
'Cause she's too good to be alone
A prison of obsession
Like a criminal
I'm just a criminal
Oh, she's gonna look into my eyes
And tell me all those pretty lies
And steal my heart forever
Like a criminal
She's just a criminal
Your actions are uncouth
But the way that you feel won't let you tell the whole truth
Because you're subliminal
You're subliminal
Your trust is minimal
Trust is minimal
This is terminal
This is terminal
Will you risk everything?
Oh, I'm gonna take her as my own
'Cause she's too good to be alone
A prison of obsession
Like a criminal
I'm just a criminal
Oh, she's gonna look into my eyes
And tell me all those pretty lies
And steal my heart forever
Like a criminal
She's just a criminal
I'm holding you till you turn blue
With my infatuation
And you're leading me into a sea
Of my own speculation
Oh, I'm gonna take her as my own
'Cause she's too good to be alone
A prison of obsession
Like a criminal
I'm just a criminal
Oh, she's gonna look into my eyes
And tell me all those pretty lies
And steal my heart forever
Like a criminal
She's just a criminal
To see what we've become
And all consequence is fleeting when you're in my view
And all of my pride is kneeling before you
I can't let you go
I can't let you go
I can't take it slow
No, I can't take it slow
And I want you to know
I want you to know
You are just what I need
Oh, I'm gonna take her as my own
'Cause she's too good to be alone
A prison of obsession
Like a criminal
I'm just a criminal
Oh, she's gonna look into my eyes
And tell me all those pretty lies
And steal my heart forever
Like a criminal
She's just a criminal
Your actions are uncouth
But the way that you feel won't let you tell the whole truth
Because you're subliminal
You're subliminal
Your trust is minimal
Trust is minimal
This is terminal
This is terminal
Will you risk everything?
Oh, I'm gonna take her as my own
'Cause she's too good to be alone
A prison of obsession
Like a criminal
I'm just a criminal
Oh, she's gonna look into my eyes
And tell me all those pretty lies
And steal my heart forever
Like a criminal
She's just a criminal
I'm holding you till you turn blue
With my infatuation
And you're leading me into a sea
Of my own speculation
Oh, I'm gonna take her as my own
'Cause she's too good to be alone
A prison of obsession
Like a criminal
I'm just a criminal
Oh, she's gonna look into my eyes
And tell me all those pretty lies
And steal my heart forever
Like a criminal
She's just a criminal
