Crookes uploaded a snippet of her singing “Perfect Crime” acoustically along with the caption:
Love after heartbreak sometimes feels like the perfect crime… I don’t want to be defined by trauma even if I have to throw gun fingers in the mirror to prop myself up.
Lyrics From Live Performance
[Verse 1]
Late night on smoke
Pistols at dawn
Last time the bullet hit before my gun was drawn
You strip my guard down
Man I can't believe
God forbid I choose my wants over my needs
[Pre-Chorus]
But
I wanna tear into another love
I wanna dare myself to crash into us
Think I was scared to take another touch
I'm a bad bad loser
Ima stay close to ya
You don't even know me do ya?
[Chorus]
I'm a killa, I'm a killa, I'm a killa
Bang bang, gun fingers in the mirror
I won't get caught this time
Commit the perfect crime
I'm a killa, I'm a killa, I'm a killa
Bang bang, gun fingers in the mirror
I won't get caught this time
Commit the perfеct crime
[Verse 2]
I'm gon' make slow love [?] sеx
And suffer no side-effects
I pull myself down to you
So keep a glass of me too
I get away with it, I get away with it
They'll be talking 'bout me after I die
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna tear into another love
I wanna dare myself to crash into us
Think I was scared to take another touch
I'm a bad bad loser
Ima stay close to ya
You don't even know me do ya?
[Chorus]
I'm a killa, I'm a killa, I'm a killa
Bang bang, gun fingers in the mirror
I won't get caught this time
Commit the perfect crime
I'm a killa, I'm a killa, I'm a killa
Bang bang, gun fingers in the mirror
I won't get caught this time
Commit the perfect crime
[Bridge]
I'm a bad bad loser
Ima stay close to ya
I'm a bad bad loser
You don't even know me
[Chorus]
Oh,I'm a killa, I'm a killa, I'm a killa
Bang bang, gun fingers in the mirror
I won't get caught this time
Commit the perfect crime
I'm a killa, I'm a killa, I'm a killa
Bang bang, gun fingers in the mirror
I won't get caught this time
Commit the perfect crime
