I'm a criminal
Of the heart

I took advantage
From the start

I cast my spell
I had you caught

I left you stranded
In thought

Victim of my volatile heart
Your forgiveness I seek
Until I can heal myself
Insanity is my plea.

I put myself on trial
I give myself over

For the crimes
of yesterdays denial
haunt me today

so selfishly
Guilty is my plea
To insanity

Blind I had become
To the pain of the fatherless son.
