[Verse 1]
It was a murder by the book
Can't have done it
A liar and a crook had it coming
Got my finger to the trigger
Locked and loaded with an alibi (Alibi)
The desperation in the air suffocation
A violent affair captivating
Look me dead in the eyes
As your heart beats for the last time (For the last time)
[Chorus]
They're coming after me now, too late
Thought I could outrun this mistake
The prints all lead to me
I left them at the scene
Thought I planned the perfect crime
[Verse 2]
Shotgun remy in the backseat
Eyes wide, they're never gonna catch me
Tonight, I'm gonna take your breath away
And if I could speak quite honestly
I never thought they'd come for me
There wasn't hope, there wasn't time
I've compromised my perfect crime
[Chorus]
They're coming after me now, too late
Thought I could outrun this mistake
The prints all lead to me
I left them at the scene
Thought I planned the perfect crime
(Comin' after me now)
Running out of time (Running out of time)
The prints all lead to me
I left them at the scene
Thought I planned the perfect crime
[Bridge]
(In a shallow grave
I'll make you behave
From a mile away
I'll steal your fate)
In a shallow grave (Shallow grave)
I'll make you behave
From a mile away
I'll steal your fate
[Pre-Chorus]
They're coming after me now, too late
Thought I could outrun this mistake
[Chorus]
They're gunning after me now, bang bang
Chasing down the freeway, escape
I've got a loaded gun
There's nowhere left to run
Thought I planned the perfect crime
(Thought I could outrun this mistake)
The prints all lead to me
I left them at the scene
Thought I planned the perfect crime
