Know that I loved you so bad, I let you treat me like that
I was your willin' accomplice, honey
And I watched as you fled the scene, doe-eyed as you buried me
One heart broke, four hands bloody
The things I did just so I could call you mine
The things you did, well, I hope I was your favorite crime
You used me as an alibi, I crossed my heart as you crossed the line
And I defended you to all my friends
And now every time a siren sounds, I wonder if you're around
'Cause you know that I'd do it all again
All the things I did just so I could call you mine
The things you did, well, I hope I was your favorite crime (ooh)
It's bittersweet to think about the damage that we'd do
'Cause I was goin' down, but I was doin' it with you
Yeah, everythin' we broke and all the trouble that we made
But I say that I hate you with a smile on my face
Oh, look what we became
All the things I did just so I could call you mine
All the things you did, well, I hope I was your favorite crime
Your favorite crime
Your favorite crime
'Cause, baby, you were mine
