Remember all the weeks that we'd spend holed up in my house Just a couple of thieves hiding out from the cops We had a couple of things and I thought that I had you and I thought that you had me But then you blamed me for taking the same things from you that I caught you taking from me I was only picking up all the feelings you left lying on the ground I tried to hide it but I could tell you knew even though I never made a single sound Red handed, I tried to touch your face But you just pushed me out the way and left me believing I was to blame Because you knew the time had come and just outside the police were surrounding the place
You got away I told them I made you do it I could never rat you out Even though you left me standing there while they came in to take us down
Now I'm serving my time, and I tried to write you once or twice even though I dont expect that you'll reply I've got a few more years in here I think, and It's gonna give me the time that I think I'll need to sort you out of my mind And I hope you always get away from the police, and I hope you always get whatever help you need, but I pray that when the day comes and I get free, I pray that you will stay away from me
