The Lyrics

A while back, I was reading the Nonsensical Lyrics page under Backstreet Boys and someone said that the original lyrics didn't make sense because the girl that the singer loves may be a convicted felon on the run. I hope that this makes that person happy.
All your felonies have always made me feel afraid
You've always got guns in your hands
People say you're crazy and that you're insane
Cause you killed an innocent man
But why you went insane is still a mystery
You heard those voices in your head
And then your best friend's boyfriend, he was history
I don't want you here with me

Yes, I care
Who you are (felon)
Where you're from (prison)
What you did
So no, you can't love me
Who you are (felon)
Where you're from (prison)
What you did
That's why you can't love me

Girl, every little crime that you have done
Instills such a fear within me
You broke out of prison and you're on the run
I don't want you here with me

Yes, I care
Who you are (felon)
Where you're from (prison)
What you did
So no, you can't love me
Who you are (felon)
Where you're from (prison)
What you did
That's why you can't love me

You try to hide it so that no one knows
But, oh yes, it shows
When they go look up your past
What you did and where you broke out of
Yes, I care
That's why you can't love me

Yes, I care
Who you are (felon)
Where you're from (prison)
What you did
So no, you can't love me
Who you are (felon)
Where you're from (prison)
What you did
That's why you can't love me
