Listen to "The Crime" here: https://vyd.co/thecrime 1 in 3 women experience violence in their lifetime. While "The Crime" was born out of a specific traumatic experience, every woman can relate to the fear it portrays. 30% of the proceeds from this song will go to The Circle, a global feminist organization confronting violence against women and girls. ____________ Lyrics: I think about you when I’m trying to sleep Who did what to you to then do that to me? I find a glimpse of you on every street In every white sedan, in every man I see I watch you floating in my free drink You’re the loose thread of a “no strings” situation A midnight altercation I hear you echo in a “why not” In a frat house with the lights off In a basement A game I wasn’t playing But still lost The crime of being alive The crime of catching your eye Not being meek and polite And smiling back at you The crime of walking alone Half a block from home My scarlet letter, your stones The pointless blood they drew A split second of judgment And I’m still being punished The crime of being a woman The color’s gone but I still have the bruise Still peeling parts of me from the sole of your shoe I can’t make sense of it, were you born with wickedness Or was it taught to you? My sin was that you couldn’t own me Threw a tantrum like you’re owed me Like I’m worthless Like I’m fashioned out of your rib Did I pay for evils of another? For the harsh words of your mother? In your verdict, what’d I do to deserve this? I’m still lost The crime of being alive The crime of catching your eye Not being meek and polite And smiling back at you The crime of walking alone Half a block from home My scarlet letter, your stones The pointless blood they drew A split second of judgment And I’m still being punished The crime of being a woman It sits like a rock in my stomach The crime that’s never unpunished The crime of being a woman ____________ Credits: A No Storage Production Directed by: Meg Darbourne Produced by: Amanda Maddocks Director of Photography: Sonali Chugani Production Company: No Storage Productions 1st AD: Mary Grebing 1st AC: Mandie Zamora Gaffer: Taylor Widener Grip: Arian Romero Swing: Nareh Dovlatyan Production Designer: Maggie Nuttall Editor: Natalie Hill Colorist: Sophie Huang Talent Coordinator: Kerri Brooks Talent Manager: Kelli Fannon PA: Emma Ryder Featuring: Jules Brave Kara Canella Devon Gabriella Nicole Han Reese Herron Sophie Holohan Vera Lorenzo Nora Mae Suzanna Martinez Jennifer Mika Enny Owls Veronica Valdes ____________ Follow Taylor Bickett: Instagram:   / taylorbickett   TikTok:   / taylorbickettmusic   Facebook:   / taylorbickettmusic   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Fxg1... #TaylorBickett #TheCrime
