Criminal
Darlin', you're callin' again.
I answer like a schoolgirl in ribbons
and curls with nothin' left.
My heart burns up like a paper doll,
my heart can't take it anymore.
When you gonna see it my way
and strip life to its bones?
This could be a simple take-in,
I'm pullin' water from a stone
'cause you know what you're doin' to me
when you left me like a criminal,
when you left me like a criminal,
when you left me like a criminal.
Trap me, my pulse pinned beneath
the weight of what you could be,
so happy with me,
or so I'm told.
My heart burns up like a ship on fire,
my heart is caught on either side.
You only ever see it your way
to keep what you control.
Love isn't simple, take it,
'cause I'm here on my own.
And you know what you're doin' to me
when you left me like a criminal,
when you left me like a criminal,
when you left me like a criminal.
Heart burns up like a paper doll,
my heart can't take it anymore.
My heart sparks up like a solder wire,
my heart needs you to feel alive.
My heart burns up like a ship on fire,
my heart is caught on either side.
My heart sparks up like a blade on steel,
my heart holds on for something real.
And you know what you're doin' to me
when you left me like a criminal,
when you left me like a criminal,
when you left me like a criminal.
