The Thief - Minor Victories

Cut from the leash of love

As if that wasn’t enough

Now I watch you buck like a raging bull and split your lips

For what is already gone

This is not how you should remember me

A room so empty

Who’s the thief?

There’s nothing left for us to steal

Let’s go outside

This isn’t you

This isn’t me

It’s not safe here anymore

Let’s go outside

Let’s go outside

Playing your king of hearts or the victim

And in the time it takes to get back a stolen kiss

We become light years apart

The in between, eyes like holes

Push past the ghosts of all our fears

And stagger into the light

Face of love forsakes the thief

Cut away by the sun
