Crooks Lyrics by Black Peaks

Statues

2016

[Verse 1]
I open my eyes
As the crowds come rushing by
They're running away
I pull down the mask
As the gas drips to the ground
They're running away
[Chorus]
Violins
Play us away
Take what they stole, give what they took away
Violins
Play us away
Take what they stole, give what they took away
[Verse 2]
We've opened the doors
As the sweat drips from our eyes
No running away
Man or machine
As the blood drips to the ground
No running away
[Chorus]
Violins
Play us away
Take what they stole, give what they took away
Violins
Play us away
Take what they stole, give what they took away
[Outro]
Violins
Play us away
Take what they stole, give what they took away
Violins
Play us away
Take what they stole, give what they took away
Away, away, away
Take what they stole
Take what they stole, give what they took away
