Gowan - A Criminal Mind lyrics

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 ever known

They tried to reform me

But I'm made of cold stone

A criminal mind

Is 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

repeat chorus

I'm made of cold stone

Just like your prison walls

A criminal mind

I AM
