The Thief

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
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
