Why must I always Follow the fatal call You carry me down Then you lock my doors I'm left in an empty room Waiting for truth He'll be here soon And his face is tired and worn A fading star in the dawn
Like thieves We live our lives to please Like thieves
Slowly I'm learning What I should value most I'm in remission I'm a living ghost Blind faith I've learnt to hide A vast cathedral deep inside There's so much that I don't need I just want to believe
Like thieves We live our lives to please Like thieves
And all the world's a mess Saving art there's nothing left Don't try to understand Steal some joy if you can
Like thieves We live our lives to please Like thieves
