[Verse 1]
Left my name on the dash of your car
Just initials
Scratched in metal
Tiny scar
Little signal
Kept the key that I never should’ve had
Call it habit
Call it selfish
Call it sad
Call it magic (yeah)
[Chorus]
This is a crime
I confess it in my head
Hands on my chest like I’m holding back the sirens
You turn away
But I’m clinging to the edge
Of every line that you said
Said in silence
This is a crime
I’m addicted to the scene
Bleeding out slow in a room full of silence
You’re in my mind like a fingerprinted screen
I can’t wipe clean
Can’t wipe you clean (uh)
[Verse 2]
Every night
Different lie to my friends
“I’m alright”
But I circle back again
Endless red lights
Leave my scent in the crease of your coat
So you’ll find it
Tiny ghost caught in your throat
When you try (to deny it)
[Chorus]
This is a crime
I confess it in my head
Hands on my chest like I’m holding back the sirens
You turn away
But I’m clinging to the edge
Of every line that you said
Said in silence
This is a crime
I’m addicted to the scene
Bleeding out slow in a room full of silence
You’re in my mind like a fingerprinted screen
I can’t wipe clean
Can’t wipe you clean (oh)
[Bridge]
Who gave you that power?
Who signed that warrant?
You haunt every hour
I still run toward it (yeah)
If loving you’s illegal
Then lock me in my habits
Let the sentence be forever
I already live inside it
[Chorus]
This is a crime
I confess it in my head
Hands on my chest like I’m holding back the sirens
You turn away
But I’m clinging to the edge
Of every line that you said
Said in silence
This is a crime
I’m addicted to the scene
Bleeding out slow in a room full of silence
You’re in my mind like a fingerprinted screen
I can’t wipe clean
Can’t wipe you clean (crime)
I can’t wipe clean
Can’t wipe you clean
