Of Crime and Passion
Why did you let me undone
When you knew I'd fall for the gaping hole
Where your heart should be?
Liar couldn't cut me deeper with a knife if you tried
Just take a look before you run off and hide
Until your victim arise
Clouds on you shoulder
Aren't they grazed by the afterglow?
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow?
Now don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion's rage
Summer of madness, the undertow
Dragged me up an alley for the blossoming fire
On a stranger's smile
Bride of wire, how disguise so easily cracked
Saw your heart turn spade
This orchid's turned to black
Graze on your shoulder
Like the clouds in the afterglow
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow?
Now don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion's rage
Way down by the shoulder
In the haze of the afterglow
Stranded together
And the storm is about to blow
Now don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion
Don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion
Don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion
Don't look away
When you knew I'd fall for the gaping hole
Where your heart should be?
Liar couldn't cut me deeper with a knife if you tried
Just take a look before you run off and hide
Until your victim arise
Clouds on you shoulder
Aren't they grazed by the afterglow?
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow?
Now don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion's rage
Summer of madness, the undertow
Dragged me up an alley for the blossoming fire
On a stranger's smile
Bride of wire, how disguise so easily cracked
Saw your heart turn spade
This orchid's turned to black
Graze on your shoulder
Like the clouds in the afterglow
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow?
Now don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion's rage
Way down by the shoulder
In the haze of the afterglow
Stranded together
And the storm is about to blow
Now don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion
Don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion
Don't look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion
Don't look away
