Crime of passion

Lost in the city, alone with your ghosts
Take all the chances is what you want most
Stirring the ashes awakens desire
Turning your spirit to fire

Oh no --- i'll take no more of the blame
Oh no --- i'll not be a moth in the flame

You kept me locked in the same old jail
It was a crime of passion
Your love was harder than a bed of nails
It was a crime of passion

I saw i was falling right into your game
Moment by moment it got more insane
Change can be broken, slaves can be freed
Waving goodbye as they leave

More of your madness with each passing day
What makes you think you're the one to be saved?
Your cynical wisdom, you're my hell on earth
I'm leaving you in the dirt

Oh no --- i'll take no more of the blame
Oh no --- i'll not be a moth in the flame

You kept me locked in the same old jail
It was a crime of passion
Your love was harder than a bed of nails
It was a crime of passion
You had me burnin' and i had to escape
That's my solution
You call it love but i call it hate
It was a crime of passion
