Clever Thief
Sometimes
I cannot believe that my soul survived
When everything else has perished in the fire
I really thought by now I’d have learned to fly
Every open window still makes me want to try
I know I should not give
in to despair
Yes, I know that all of you still care
I promise I won’t surrender to my grief
But she’s such a clever thief
My mind cannot rest at
ease while my heart still cries
And everyone else can see it in my eyes
They really thought by now I’d have learned to let go
Let my mourning end and bask in your afterglow
I know I should not give
in to despair
Yes, I know that some of you still care
I promise I won’t surrender to my grief
But she’s such a clever thief
She will work her way deep
inside my heart
To collect a debt I cannot pay
She will use all of her ploys to tear me apart
And steal my soul away
Sometimes I cannot believe
that my soul survived
When everything else has perished in the fire
I really thought by now I’d have learned to fly
Every open window still makes me want to try
I know I should not give
in to despair
Yes, even if no one else still cares
I promise I won’t surrender to my grief
But she’s such a clever thief
