What Parents Need to Know

About Crooked X

Parents need to know that they have little to worry about with Crooked X. The band's clean lyrics cover the typical teen topics like exploring the world ("I can't slow down / I see the whole world comin'") and experiencing periodic angst ("I got to find some shelter / Where everything that hurts / Just seems to fade away").
