Thief
Remember me as a thief
That took without regret the time that wasn't mine to keep
Content to live the fever dream
An hourglass suspended on its side escapes defeat
Remember me as a thief
Remember me as a cheat
Refused to be contained within the lies they said believe
Packs of dogs and cigarettes
A narrative defied at the expense of all my rest
Remember me as a cheat
Forget the raving epithets, the disregard for consequence
Forget the constant hollow threats, forget the baseless confidence
The hell I always put you through, the beast of burden lived up to
The misdirection, the alcohol
Fuck anything I said at all
Remember me and my defeat
Tried to rise a bit above the ground beneath my feet
Brought back down by gravity
The land where I belong has laws with which I don't agree
Remember me and my defeat
Remember me in disbelief
A champagne whisper tongue tied by a season changing leaves
When the fever finally breaks
Conspiracy confirmed as I lie in a shallow grave
Know then as I'm on display
A different god watched over me if any one at all
Remember me as a thief
Remember me as a cheat
Remember me in my defeat
Remember me as a thief
That took without regret the time that wasn't mine to keep
Content to live the fever dream
An hourglass suspended on its side escapes defeat
Remember me as a thief
Remember me as a cheat
Refused to be contained within the lies they said believe
Packs of dogs and cigarettes
A narrative defied at the expense of all my rest
Remember me as a cheat
Forget the raving epithets, the disregard for consequence
Forget the constant hollow threats, forget the baseless confidence
The hell I always put you through, the beast of burden lived up to
The misdirection, the alcohol
Fuck anything I said at all
Remember me and my defeat
Tried to rise a bit above the ground beneath my feet
Brought back down by gravity
The land where I belong has laws with which I don't agree
Remember me and my defeat
Remember me in disbelief
A champagne whisper tongue tied by a season changing leaves
When the fever finally breaks
Conspiracy confirmed as I lie in a shallow grave
Know then as I'm on display
A different god watched over me if any one at all
Remember me as a thief
Remember me as a cheat
Remember me in my defeat
Remember me as a thief
