Sevendust - Criminal lyrics

Well, the truth is out, the voices fade
No reaching out, no safe escape
You don't seem broken up
That killer spirit worn
We play it out, we choose our fate
Our time runs out, we lose that race
It really burns you up
You think this was enough

Why do we care if it ends here?
Why live the lie anymore?

Run away like fire, crash and burning out
It's too hard to let it go
Can you read my mind if I scream inside?
Who's the hero now if I'm so criminal?

You have my word but lost your faith
The changes come but way too late
I wish we knew enough
To have a sense of worth
Disgrace will burn, our eyes don't see
The cruelest parts that cut so deep
But nothing shuts us up
You'd think we've had enough

Why do we care if it ends here?
Why live the lie anymore?

Run away like fire, crash and burning out
It's too hard to let it go
Can you read my mind if I scream inside?
Who's the hero now if I'm so criminal?

You cut a man down
Tell me now, what have I done?
And let it all out but you
Don't hear a thing at all

Run away like fire, crash and burning out
It's too hard to let it go
Can you read my mind if I scream inside?
Who's the hero now if I'm so criminal?

If I'm so criminal no, I'm no criminal
I'm no criminal no criminal
