Ashes Remain - Criminal Lyrics

By Your side, whatever may come
Guilty by association
Put me in chains and lock me away
Flip the switch, start digging the grave

Living by every word You speak
They come for You, they come for me
Won’t say a word in my defense
I won’t give in

I wanna talk a whole lot less
I’m gonna walk like I’ve been listening
They said You were a fool
But I know You’re the truth
To follow You must be criminal

No one thinks they have blood on their hands
But we all blamed an innocent man
Turned our backs and we left You alone
Sold You out and surrendered our souls

But You were strong, You never backed down
Made a way for the lost to be found
You were accused, convicted, condemned
You gave it all, and You’d do it again

I wanna talk a whole lot less
I’m gonna walk like I’ve been listening
They said You were a fool
But I know You’re the truth
To follow You must be criminal

I wanna talk a whole lot less
I’m gonna walk like I’ve been listening
They said You were a fool
But I know You’re the truth
To follow You must be criminal

I wanna talk a whole lot less
I’m gonna walk like I’ve been listening
They said You were a fool
But I know You’re the truth
To follow You must be criminal
