Izzy La Mac - Criminal Lover Lyrics

Lover
You're a criminal lover
Up under the covers
You preach it
You're tryna make me reach it
Some clear state of mind
That leaves my prejudice behind
I said, well hell, I resign
You know I thought we were fine
But when you talk it's white fire
And I am burnt by the demon of desire
Tryna tell me I'm fine
But I'm a deaf, dumb and blind one
I'm like some slick saline creature
Grew legs, left my ocean to meet ya
Foreign feature in the play
Dance of living, night and day
So roll up, one, two
Get in line coz it's quite a view
And you can see the lions hack at her
Whack, snack
Attack her 'till she's stew
Don't worry it's nothing new
Like a well rehearsed recipe
Taste is based on chemistry
Like everything, this energy
Won't last for eternity
Coz it's hurting me
This siege for sleep
The lack of self-belief
And not knowing who I'm gonna be
Although it's right in front of me
Hauling me and pulling me from chasing my dream
My last face-lift was self-esteem but apparently
I'm so stupidly
Close mindedly dumb
Probably because I was fifteen years old
When I stopped sucking my thumb
Can't know shit about electrodes
Or the way that things in gardens grow
Especially stuck stuck stuck stuck on your inferiority road
Release me
Let me go
This is my corner get your own
I'm on the phone
You're up in my zone
Why can't you let me be alone
Lover
You're a criminal lover
Up under the cover
I see your face and I'm smothered
By all the criminal nothings
Oh, tell me, did you love her
Maybe it was all play pretend
Maybe it was all in my head
I can't go back now
Can't pretend
All of your criminal nothings
Are all just false promises
It's not gonna get better
'Till you want it to get better
In the meantime, just admit it
You're liking the attention
Don't you think I know
What you got going on
Let's step back a minute and
Let's fast forward
To twenty five years later
When your mind is finally made up
You're gonna fix this bitch of a problem
But, shock horror, solution not changed, up
We go, fighting against the current
Tryna get back to that morning
Where all your bullshit started
Why didn't you fix yourself then
Could of helped yourself, don't pretend
That it was my fault for not supporting
You in that web you got yourself caught in
Coz I did it, I fought it
And I know that you thought it
The last resort it's a rest assured miss
On the life that we're born with
You have a beginning, I wasn't in it
So stop blaming the past on the present
I ain't taking that man, no forget it
Life destroys you only if you let it
Lover
You're a criminal lover
Up under the covers
I see your face and I'm smothered
I'm peeking out through the shutters
I grab your throat and scream
You're a criminal lover
Maybe it was all play pretend
Maybe it was all in my head
I can't go back now
Can't pretend
All of your criminal nothings
Are all just false promises
Maybe it was all play pretend
Maybe it was all in my head
I can't go back now
Can't pretend
All of your criminal nothings
Are all just false promises
Betrayal
Conceived behind a veil
Shadowy folks
Conniving in the skins of the devils
Oh, I'm rattled
To see my hands are shackled
Mouth is covered feet are tied
And I bet you were so surprised
To look down and find
You'd sharpened your knife
You open your mouth
So wide
All these words tumble out into the light
These hands aren't mine
The puppet master jiggle me from behind
And she got a hold of my mind
And in time
She'll get you on her side
Then you'll find
We were right, we were right
Swallow that all
Down you will fall
Cold, cold on the floor in the middle of our little fight
Do you know what I have to reply
No, of course you don't
You can't read my mind
No matter how hard you sit there and you try
Living in lies
Lets the living here die
Living in fights
Lets the living here die
Just coz there's two of you don't make it right
Not enough time to recoup in the night
From the might of your bite
When you bite for delight
Be careful what you're saying to me
I'll put it all over the radio
Don't you see
I'll see you on the big screen
Bitch
