Life Sentence letra

I walked through those iron gates with both hands raised
Yeah, surrender wears so many different faces
Spent my whole damn life outrunnin' chains and law
Till love found my tracks with its crooked claw

The strongest man can fall without a fight
Just watch the tail-lights disappear into the night
Steel bars ain't nothin' but straight lines in the day
Compared to all the roads where you drove away

Love's the crime and love's the sentence
Mercy never was its preference
Biggest heist I ever pulled, biggest payoff too
My worst life sentence is lovin' you

I reckon every outlaw meets the bounty on his head
Mine went and left me half alive, half dead
The warden keeps the keys, but they don't fit this pain
A broken heart don't ever serve its time the same

Love's the crime and love's the sentence
Mercy never was its preference
Biggest heist I ever pulled, biggest payoff too
My worst life sentence is lovin' you

That empty whiskey glass with your red lipstick is still the strongest drink I have left
And love's the only judge that reached my soul beyond the flesh

Love's the crime and love's the sentence
Mercy never was its preference
Biggest heist I ever pulled, biggest payoff too
My worst life sentence is lovin' you
