Bloody Thief

Well it came down the line
Put your soul in a bind
All the prison and religion
On your mind
And no-one ever tried
To put you to sleep
For any words in a voice
Dark and deep

But you can let those demons rest
Leave it to me
Well I'll do my best
Because I know who you are
And who you're talking to
A bloody thief crying on a cross

And we left a few women
Crying by the door
What you stole in those days
It don't matter anymore
Because a thief he turns poet
When the nails go through
Well you told it God
Now I'm telling you

That you can let those demons rest
Leave it to me
Well I'll do my best
Because I know who you are
And who you're talking to
A bloody thief crying on a cross

Well I was fourteen
When I strummed my first chord
Seventeen said goodbye
To my lord
Then I got me a wife
And a baby boy
Who lets a thief have a life
To enjoy?

But we can let those demons rest
Leave it to someone
Who's gonna try their best
Because I know who you are
And who you're talking to
Na na na na na na na
