Confession of the 40th Thief

6 views

Lyrics

At the foot of the father like father ' What is the problem?
 Can't see the road so how could I follow?
 Got all choked up so how could I swallow?
 Your medicine but better yet let it soak in the sacrament so 39 thieves
 Couldn't rob us of our sacrilege
 39 thieves ' Teach you a lesson
 The 40th fell into the hell of his confession
 Down down never came back back up up
 Wave hits ' Mind freezes up
 Sky splits ' I gotta pick the pieces up
 Find the shards they're buried in the garden
 Hide your charge cuz it's a long way home
 Step lightly and careful ' You might see 39 thieves
 Down on their knees and it depends on the season
 If there's snow on the ground there'll be blood in the ice
 You'll be tempted to join 'em now
 They think I'm crazy ' has anybody saved me yet
 I think I'm poisoned ' living under constant threat
 Is this the plot or better yet an imposter?
 Like me the life we lead is easily broken
 Never thought I'd have to do this alone
 Hold on so I won't break
 Feeling just a little bit better
 Never knew how much my fingers could take
 Hold tight to the side of the cliff now
 This is it now you're never gonna get down
 Reach for the ground until it picks you up
 You see it's never enough until it lifts you
 At the foot of the father like father ' What is the problem?
 Can't see the road so how could I follow?
 Got all choked up so how could I swallow?
 Your medicine but better yet let it soak in the sacrament so 39 thieves
 Couldn't rob us of our sacrilege
 I trusted the rats swimming away from the sinking ship
 And left you to save face
 Been thinking since then
 The cracks in this skin are way to exposed to go away
 If there's another chance ' I don't wanna take it this time
 It's my interpretation of the last mistake
 That makes good and evil simple as a line
 Down the middle of my spine
 As the thought of you in broken space
 There's a laugh and whisper in the next room
 Catch a draft ' feel a quiver ' make ya head swoon
 Pretty pretty angry ' ugly ugly awake
 We're living on different pages ' Forgetting all the same poems
 Never thought I'd have to do this alone
 Hold on so I won't break
 Feeling just a little bit better
 Never knew how much my fingers could take
 Hold tight to the side of the cliff now
 This is it now you're never gonna get down
 Reach for the ground until it picks you up
 You see it's never enough until it lifts you up
