Lawrence Gowan A Criminal Mind Lyrics

A Criminal Mind Lyrics

You see my hands are steady 

 You've seen my face before 

 Soon you can take your last look 

 And they'll close the door 

 I stand accused before you 

 I have no tears to cry 

 And you will never break me 

 Till the day I die 

 

 (Chorus) 

 A criminal mind is all I've 

 All I've ever known 

 They tried to reform me 

 But I'm made of cold stone 

 My criminal mind is all I've 

 All I've ever had 

 Ask one who's known me 

 If I'm really so bad... 

 I AM 

 

 I've spent my life behind these steel bars 

 I've paid my debt in time 

 But being brought to justice 

 That was my only crime 

 I don't regret a single action 

 I'd do the same again 

 These prison walls secure me 

 And I'm numb to pain 

 

 repeat chorus 

 

 Before you hand me over 

 Before you read my sentence 

 I'd like to say a few words 

 Here in my own defense... 

 Some people struggle daily 

 They struggle with their conscience 

 Till the end 

 I have no guilt to haunt me 

 I feel no wrong intent 

 

 A criminal mind is all I've 

 All I've ever known 

 Don't try to reform me 

 Cause I'm made of cold stone 

 My criminal mind is all I 

 All I've ever had 

 Ask one who's known me 

 If I'm really so bad... 

 I AM 

 Oh I AM 

 Oh I AM 

 I'm made of cold stone 

 Made of cold stone 

 Just like these prison walls 

 A criminal mind 

 Oh 

 

 Made of cold stone 

 I'm made of cold stone 

 Just like your prison walls 

 I'm made of cold stone 

 A criminal mind 

 I am 

 A criminal mind...
