Criminal
Thomas Reid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I think I wanna disappear
Or maybe I just need you here
With me
Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I'm still waiting for your keys
To hit my door oh baby please
Come home

Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I think I wanna disappear
Or maybe I just need you here
With me
Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

Make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I'm still waiting for your keys
To hit my door oh baby please
Come home

Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

Make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I think I wanna disappear
Or maybe I just need you here
With me
Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I'm still waiting for your keys
To hit my door oh baby please
Come home

Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I think I wanna disappear
Or maybe I just need you here
With me
Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

Make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I'm still waiting for your keys
To hit my door oh baby please
Come home

Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

Make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I think I wanna disappear
Or maybe I just need you here
With me
Does that make me a criminal
Make me a criminal

I'm still waiting for your keys
I just, don't wanna be here




And I'm really sorry but
I don't know how to be okay without you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Thomas Reid's song "Criminal" seem to evoke feelings of love and loss. The first line "I think I wanna disappear" suggests a desire to escape from something or someone. However, the following line "Or maybe I just need you here" reveals that the escape is not from the world, but rather from the pain of living without the person he loves. The repetition of the phrase "Does that make me a criminal?" suggests that the singer feels guilty for wanting someone so much, as if it is a crime to love deeply. The line "Make me a criminal" can be seen as a plea to be punished for loving in a way that is deemed excessive or taboo.


The second verse reflects a longing for the return of the beloved, with the words "I'm still waiting for your keys to hit my door oh baby please come home." The singer is clearly desperate for the return of the other person, as the line "I just, don't wanna be here" suggests he is struggling to cope with the pain of separation. The closing lines "And I'm really sorry but I don't know how to be okay without you" reinforce the idea that the singer is willing to do anything to be reunited with the one he loves, even if it means being branded a criminal.


Overall, the song seems to explore themes of love, longing, and the emotional turmoil that comes with losing someone you care deeply for. The repetition of the chorus creates a sense of urgency and desperation, as the singer pleads for the return of his beloved.
