Criminal Craves
Dan Elkan
Walked in places you never thought
Open spaces though left unlocked, they’re
Out of reach when you neither are here nor there
Can’t explain
The criminal craves what he doesn’t have
Open flames
The west coast sways where it never lasts
And you can go through the motions
Dragging your heels there
But you won’t be the last to laugh
Can’t explain
The criminal craves what he doesn’t have
Open flames, they won’t be stopped
We shiver and know that if we’d start
We’d never stop
We’d never stop
Can’t explain
The criminal craves what he doesn’t have
Open flames
The west coast claimed where it never lasts
You can go through the motions
Dragging your heels but like the one in the market over the knee said
Can’t explain
The criminal craves what he doesn’t have at all
