Thieves and Lovers

In this dog eat dog world it was just me and her
Thieves and lovers
Yeah the fat cats, their wallets, their bank accounts
With a few less zeroes, the world our oyster
The rush freeing, no casualties
We just wanted money
Their affluence, they shall not miss
The relative pennies, but
One slip up on the job that was the cause of her demise
I never considered that trigger happy lawman in disguise
Who took away the one true
Yin to my yang

Now that she's left the world
Meaning's walked out the door
Intense regret
Survivors guilt has overtaken me

Just one moment
The consequence of my complacency
Beside myself, her memory piercing
Took a chance, took a chance with fate
Now it's too late, too late
Time slows as she falls
Someday, some way

Rising lividity, yeah mind is spinning round and round
I will not rest until that fucking lawman's in the ground
He'll rue the day, because now he's gonna have to pay

Took a chance, took a chance with fate
Now it's too late, too late
Engraved is your name, on this bullet gone astray
Someday, some way

No longer am I questioning inevitability
The only choice is duel
And it's me and you and the stage is set
Hands to holsters

Took a shot, took a shot hit his face
It wasn't too late, too late revenge is my end
And I'll see her once again
Someday, some way
