The Criminal Songtext / Lyric

Hold my crown as we follow the sounds

Ooooooooh

Choking the trigger is a chore

We're all criminals of war

Ooooooooh



I just got the call and it's time to go

Where the oil falls like snow

And the bullets steal the show

To my family, my brothers, and all of my friends

Say goodbye; I am going off to war

And I am not coming home



I've given everything for someone else's war

Tell me what we're fighting for



That boy that you loved

He is gone, he is lost forever

He just killed a man

Who had promised his daughter

He'd sing to her again

La la la la...






I've given everything for someone else's war

Tell me what we're fighting for

I've given everything for someone else's war

Tell me what we're fighting for



Hold my crown as we follow the sounds

Ooooooooh

Choking the trigger is a chore

We're all criminals of war

Ooooooooh



I've given everything for someone else's war

Tell me what we're fighting for

I've given everything for someone else's war

Tell me what we're fighting for



One last kiss we better make this one count

'Cause I can't seem to deal with the fact

That I may never see you again

Send this letter to my mother who cries in her bed

She is scared; 'cause her boy's gone off to war

And he's not coming home

Ooooooooh
