 Struggling with Criminals? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

Well there were days when you thought you'd just go under
And the weekends you never understood
When you flew from the bar only 17
You didn't bleed, and no one ever thought you would

And there were straights and lines and every sort of option
To stay away from broken mirrors and your friends
But the summer was strung with some mightily thread
You know I would never wait around, oh

Come see the hiding rain
Come see the stillness in all them worms

Come see the lovable strain of someone diving for all you know

Come see the strain of a real end-try
Come meet the criminals of this Napoleon ride

And there were the nights we thought we would just surrender
To the stories of the miracles of gulls

Oh and you flew from your sheets
Where your hours gone
Never sleep and no one ever thought you would

Come see the hiding rain
Come see the stillness in all them worms

Come see the lovable strain of someone diving for all you know

Come see the strain of a real end-try
Come meet the criminals of this Napoleon ride

And there are illusions and they're just not even ?some
To walk around a shiny peak of snow
And what a picture that is to be saved for us
Now it's standing like it's just for us to know

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 real end-try
Come meet the criminals of this Napoleon ride
