about

I AM A CRIME is a song
about growth & against social stigma

It has been recorded at Happenstance Records, in the countryside that touches the Po river, summer 2023.
It is part of the monologue "Storia di un assassino", written by Christian Poli and performed by the actor Andrea Santonastaso with the live band itself.

This is the first The Johnny Clash project's original song.

lyrics

Jealousy is a crime
Obsession is a crime
Sick love is also a crime
I know, the biggest crime it's me
I Am a crime

Frailty is a lot of grime
Addiction is a crime
A big mistake is not having a single dime
So the biggest crime it's me
I Am a crime

Here i leave all these bags filled with guilt, pain and filth
that i've paid with my blood and my brain.
I let the storm i had been dancing for
hit me with every single drop
I have been wounded, that made me Clean

wet and naked clean
Compassion is what i mean
when i gaze at the mirror and the things in between
Can't see the biggest crime
it don't own me, nor it is mine
I forgive and leave behind
to lay here there's no more time
