Ballad of the Thief

Deep inside your eyes
I'm spotting all the lies
You're trying to hide from me
You say gambling can be wise
Cause it's really hard to rise
In this shallow society

Right behind your face
You hide your evil ace
And you wait for me to play
But it's a shadow what you chase
Cause you're walking by a trace
That will slowly fade away

I will never play your game
Things would never be the same
It's not me you have to blame
I don't share your belief
The Ballad of the thief

You want me to go blind
And love to fill my mind
With pictures of what you do
Even though you look so fine
I may offer you some wine
But I won't give up to you

Tell me why you're still
Selling me as real
What I see on my phone
You are very fine to see
And I like your company
But I live on my own

All is perfect in your frame
Steal the money for the fame
But I still find it lame
So you won't be my chief
The Ballad of the Thief

But now I know your plan
To conquer every man
And take them inside your hole
And you know I'll stay away
Cause I know that you will pay
For everything you stole

You'll forget about my name
I'll keep everything you claim
You may say I got no shame
But my name is not Riff
