Under Suspicion
Love's Crime Scene: Under Suspicion
Lyrics
Well I've been mistreated - been lied to and cheated
Expresses being mistreated, lied to, and cheated.
Misled and abused - just like an old rag you threw away
Highlights feeling discarded and abused, akin to an object thrown away.
First you filled me with thunder - then you let me go under
Describes a sudden change from excitement to despair.
You can run - you can hide
Suggests the perpetrator trying to evade consequences.
But you ain't going to get away
Asserts that escaping consequences won't be possible.
'Cause you're under suspicion of
Implies suspicion regarding departure after causing heartbreak.
Leavin' the scene of a broken heart
Refers to leaving after breaking someone's heart.
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair
Suggests evading responsibility for emotional damage.
You ain't got a conscience and made
Accuses the person of lacking remorse for inflicting pain.
Me the victim of a cruel and unusual crime
Portrays the victimization experienced as unusual and cruel.
Now you're under suspicion - under suspicion
Reiterates suspicion regarding the actions of the person.
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair
Reiterates the suspicion regarding a fleeting and damaging romantic involvement.
No matter where you'll be going
Indicates the certainty of finding out the truth, regardless of the person's whereabouts.
I've got ways of knowin'
Asserts having means of discovering the truth.
And somewhere down the line
Implies an inevitable accountability for their actions.
You're gonna have to pay.
Emphasizes the impending consequences for the person.
'Cause you're under suspicion of
Repeats suspicion about leaving after causing heartache.
Leavin' the scene of a broken heart
Repeats the notion of departure after breaking someone's heart.
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair
Restates suspicion of avoiding responsibility for emotional harm.
You ain't got a conscience and made
Reiterates the accusation of lacking remorse for causing pain.
Me the victim of a cruel and unusual crime
Highlights the victimization as a cruel and unusual act.
Now you're under suspicion - under suspicion
Reiterates the suspicion regarding the person's actions.
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair
Repeats the suspicion regarding a brief but damaging romantic affair.
