We're All Thieves

Oh, how it seems
That we're all thieves
We betray love
And steal her dreams
We creep in when
She is dead asleep
We're self absorbed
And hopeless beings

When lights go out
We know it's time
To sneak inside
Commit our crime
I act as though
This gift is mine
Each time I feel
I've crossed the line

But still I go
With its closed eyes
And pull and tug
A million tries
So nonchalant
We wear our ties
I hide my face
Our lives just lies

Please keep them closed
I'll turn the keys
Oh, how it seems
That we're all thieves
We steal what's ours
Though they're her dreams
We take her thoughts
Yes, we're all thieves
