lyrics

THIEF

I’ve got to raise my voice
Not going to hide any more
All the highs and the lows
Murder and the white noise

It’s about time we learnt
Compassion and Empathy
Our fellow man
Suffering at the hands of greed

Reticence it called my name
I said no leave me alone
If I don’t live to better the world I’m in
Then I’m just a thief in somebody else’s home

You build up walls
Then we knock them right down
And that look in your eyes
Just like a building storm

You’ve got to watch your words
Better hold your tongue
The fight’s never over
Until the war is won

Reticence it called my name
I said no leave me alone
If I don’t live to better the world I’m in
Then I’m just a thief in somebody else’s home

I’ve got to raise my voice
Not going to hide any more
