Crime of Passion

lyrics

I met a man who said he’d lost it all
His head was spinning from the force of the fall
The year was ’65 when he lost his little boy
And for 47 years he’s been tripping on his toys
So I don’t blame the man for what they say he’s done
He didn’t use a knife and he didn’t use a gun
Instead he took a match to the bridge to enter town
And walked away without a word as he burned that fucker down

The day was dark and grey, and the rain was coming down
Mixed in with the motor oil and seeped into the ground
The wheels began to slip, the wheels began to slide
He closed his eyes, lost control, and drove over the side
The river shimmered, the fire made it shine
When years of metal riveting had started to unwind
The old man cried, as he burned away his chains
He’ll forever hold his little boy in the bloodflow of his veins
