I'm as swift to pick your pocket as I am to pick your lock And slip into your picture perfect world just to piss it off A lot of tricks up my sleeve, yes I mean to rip you off I leave a lot of empty wallets, all away from which I walk If you are rich enough, then you oughtta listen up I'll be quickly stripping you of every single frill and pomp Just because you are another name upon the list I got Robbing every prick aristocrat until I hit the top See, with every breath I take and with every tick and tock I'm just another step ahead, a vigilante in the dark I'm the whisper in the wind, the paranoia in your gut All I know is how to take, so I won't be giving up
I'll never let go of my inner klepto Cause I've been one ever since the get-go I have only come here to collect gold So I thought I'd let you know I am the darkness, come to creep in And when you can't sleep, I am the reason With all the light gone, I can see your demons You're never safe from me when you're bleeding secrets
Plagues, cults and kings can't even keep up Can this be real or something that I dreamed up? These mean streets are greased up with steampunk Every rooftop's a new spot to freerun In a bleak city that's stripped clean of freedom And where decency is seen as treason For these sick people, there's not much that could be done Honestly, all I could care about is cha-ching (UH) Homeowners insurance, you're gonna need some And I won't kill you unless you give me a reason I mean, please, I am the master thief, son That's a fact that you might need to sleep on
I'll never let go of my inner klepto Cause I've been one ever since the get-go I have only come here to collect gold So I thought I'd let you know I am the darkness, come to creep in And when you can't sleep, I am the reason With all the light gone, I can see your demons You're never safe from me when you're bleeding secrets
Don't let the shadows creep in They'll seek out all your demons Resurrect your secrets so Beware of where the dark is deepest I'm as swift to pick your locks as I am to pick your pockets I'm not a Robin Hood because I'm only good at robbin' Should the Baron dare declare war upon me, then I'll drop him Leave it to the people to knock the nails into his coffin
I'll never let go of my inner klepto Cause I've been one ever since the get-go I have only come here to collect gold So I thought I'd let you know I am the darkness, come to creep in And when you can't sleep, I am the reason With all the light gone, I can see your demons You're never safe from me when you're bleeding secrets
