I Fought the Law

The first part is mending the wire
On fences I have crossed
Got a jump start to cover my tracks
And throw the search team off

The cold mud and lingering frost
Won't leave much to my name
And I know the panic you feel
Isn't easy to contain

Shredding the ledgers
You keep in the desk drawer
Censor it down to the guest room

Cutting the phone lines
I never expected
But nobody else is left

Gathering bank notes
Your cut in a suitcase
Settling dust on the floorboards

Burning the tips off
From each of your fingers
Wishing you could've done more

If I fought the law
And fell from the social grace
Please intimidate the witness
Incriminate their wavering faith

If I fought the law
And fell from the social grace
Please intimidate the witness
Incriminate their wavering faith

If I fought the law
And fell from the social grace
Please intimidate the witness
Incriminate their wavering faith

If I fought the law
And fell from the social grace
Please intimidate the witness
Incriminate their wavering faith
