Bleeding Secrets
I'm as swift to pick your pockets
as I am to pick your locks and
slip into your picture perfect world
just to piss it off
A lot of tricks up my sleeve
yes, I mean to rip you off
I leave a lot of empty wallets
all away from which I walk
If you are
rich enough
then you oughta
listen up
I'll be quickly strippin' you
of every single frill and pomp
just because you are another name
upon the list I got
Robbin every prick aristocrat
until I hit the top
With every breath I take
and with every tick and tock
I'm just another step ahead,
a vigilante in the dark
I'm the whisper in the wind,
the paranoia in your gut,
all I know is how to take,
so I won't be giving up
I'll never let go
of my inner klepto,
'cause I've been one
ever since the get-go
I have only
come here to collect gold,
so I thought I'd let you know:
I am the darkness,
come to creep in,
and when you can't sleep,
I am the reason
With all the light gone
I can see your demons
You're never safe from me,
when you're bleeding secrets
Plagues, cults and kings,
can't even keep up
Can this be real,
or something that I dreamed up?
These mean streets
are greased up with steampunk,
every rooftop's a new spot to free-run
In a bleak city
that's stripped clean of freedom,
and where decency
is seen as treason
For these sick people
there's not much that can be done,
honestly,
all I could care about is cha-ching-uh
Homeowner's insurance,
you're gonna need some,
and I won't kill you
unless you give me a reason
I mean please,
I am the Master Thief, son
that's a fact,
that you might need to sleep on
I'll never let go
of my inner klepto,
'cause I've been one
ever since the get-go
I have only
come here to collect gold,
so I thought I'd let you know:
I am the darkness,
come to creep in,
and when you can't sleep,
I am the reason
With all the light gone
I can see your demons
You're never safe from me,
when you're bleeding secrets
Don't let the shadows creep in,
they'll seek out all your demons,
resurrect your secrets
so beware of where the dark is deepest
I'm as swift to pick your locks
as I am to pick your pockets,
I'm not a Robin Hood,
because I'm only good at robbin'
Should the Baron dare declare
a war upon me,
then I'll drop him,
leave it to the people to knock
the nails into his coffin
I'll never let go
of my inner klepto,
'cause I've been one
ever since the get-go
I have only
come here to collect gold,
so I thought I'd let you know:
I am the darkness,
come to creep in,
and when you can't sleep,
I am the reason
With all the light gone
I can see your demons
You're never safe from me,
when you're bleeding secrets
