Lyrics

Crime

I'm intrigued by the light
Like a moth lost in flight
I didn't know what I was thinking
I was so stuck in my ways
Didn't realize

I just pace back and forth
Didn't wanna go out no more
Such a way of living
I didn't think I would easily give up the fight

Not as sweet as I might seem
My friends said I can get real mean
I'll leave your head ringing
I'll take you out for the rest of the night
I'm intrigued by the light
Like a moth lost in flight

Now I'm just sitting up in my room with the shades closed
Trying to change my situation
Ribbons wrapped around me
Such a way of living
I didn't have the passion I once had, once upon a time

Didn't think being down was committing a crime

    Shamir - Heterosexuality

    Affirming, thought-provoking and living with a freedom that enriches as much as it informs, it's a remarkable record.
