The Thief

from High Lands by Sahara Surfers

lyrics

I obey the thief in my shattered sake
can I linger sweet in poisoned times
can I believe your words - do I?

Can you talk of me my darkened haze
I forgot to taste or never knew it in first place
there’s no meaning in pretending smiles
when the whole world feels like ruins
of a place you refused to find

I still obey, the joker’s won - beaten steps I’m on
I try to free the soul I own - that I always seek to calm
but still it’s totally pinched and worn
and still I’m fine, always wanted to have a piece
of your spark in my mind

Can you talk of me, the tears I’ll cry
and will you turn them into something that
better suits my eyes
if there is no goal in at least one try
I will refuse to breathe and sing or write
for all the sense has died

Can you talk of me, the tears I’ll cry
and will you turn them into something that
better suits my eyes
if there is no goal in at least one try
I will refuse to breathe and sing or write
for all the sense has died
