Criminal

I’ve been a bad, bad girl
I’ve been careless with a delicate man
And it’s a sad, sad world
When a girl will break a boy, just because she can Don’t you tell me to deny it
I’ve done wrong and I want to suffer for my sins
I’ve come to you cause I need guidance to be true
And I just don’t know where I can begin What I need is a good defense, cause I’m feelin’ like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed to the one I’ve sinned against
Cause he’s all I ever knew of love Heaven help me for the way I am
Save me from these evil deeds before I get them done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand
But I keep livin’ this day like the next will never come Oh help me, but don’t tell me to deny it
I’ve got to cleanse myself of all these lies till I’m good enough for him
I’ve got a lot to lose and I’m bettin’ high so I’m beggin’ you before it ends
Just tell me where to begin What I need is a good defense, cause I’m feelin’ like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed to the one I’ve sinned against
Cause he’s all I ever knew of love Let me know the way before there’s hell to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I’ve got to make a play to make my lover stay
So what would an angel say, the devil wants to know What I need is a good defense, cause I’m feelin’ like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed to the one I’ve sinned against
Cause he’s all I ever knew of love Fiona Apple
