Dead Oceans - Criminals lyrics

Well there were days when you thought you would just go under And the weekends that you never understood When you flew from the bar only seventeen You didn't bleed and no one ever thought you would And there where straights and lines and every sorts of options To stay away from broken mirrors in your friends But the summer was strung with some mighty thread And no law would never wait around no bend (Chorus) Come see the hiding in rain, come see the stillness in all them ones Come see the loveable strain of someone diving for all you know Come see the strain of a reeling tribe Come meet the criminals, of this Napoleon ride And there were the nights when you thought we would just surrender To the stories of the miracles of gulls When you flew from your sheets where your hours gone You never sleep and no one ever thought you would Come see the hiding in rain, come see the stillness in all them ones Come see the loveable strain of someone diving for all you know Come see the strain of a reeling tribe Come meet the criminals, of this Napoleon ride There are illusions and then just not even wanting To walk around a shiny peak of snow What a picture that is to be saved for us How it's standing like it's just for us to know (Chorus Variation) There was a time in my life when I was carried by all of you Now I run like a man still don't know what I dive into Come see the strain of a reeling tribe Come meet the criminals, of this Napoleon ride
