By Crooked Steps Lyrics
I’m addicted to feeling,
Stealing love isn’t stealing,
Can’t you see that I understand your mind?
I’m a walking believer,
I’m a ghost and a healer,
I’m the shape of the home inside your mind
Not looking for a brighter side,
Crooked steps will take me higher,
I don’t care if you want to cry
I’m a soldier for hire,
Killing all you admire,
And you live in the cloud but that will change
Not looking for a brighter side,
Crooked steps will take me higher,
I don’t care if you want to cry
Blood raining down,
Cuts a deep, deep river,
And we’re diving
And we’re diving
By crooked steps,
Right behind you (Right behind you)
By crooked steps,
Right behind you (Right behind you)
By crooked steps,
Right behind you (Right behind you)
By crooked steps,
Right behind you (Right behind you)
By crooked steps,
Right behind you (Right behind you)
I’m a walking believer,
I’m a ghost and a healer,
Can’t you see that I understand your mind?
Can’t you see that I understand your mind?
By crooked steps
Right behind you
By crooked steps
Right behind you
By crooked steps
Right behind you
By crooked steps
Right behind you
