The Thief

Lucy Kaplansky

Composed by: Lucy Kaplansky/Richard Litvin
We were sitting at a cafe 
You were listening like you had nothing better to do 
You were feigning interest badly, 
I guess interest is too hard for you 
So I stopped talking, and just watched you 
Watched the way your mouth made faces at me 
Watched the way your eyes looked through me 
Looking for something new you could take from me... 

 

And I know what you are 
You're the thief who steals from your friends 
I know what you are and 
Everything in the world does not belong to you 

Everything you ever gave me 
Were just scraps you didn't want anyway 
All the people you discarded 
Guess you never thought you might want them back some day 

I've been loyal, I've been honest 
Well, to tell you the truth, I don't know what for 
I've knelt down with all the others 
But I'm not on my knees anymore... 

 

Last night, in the dark, in my mirror, 
I thought I saw you 
I threw the mirror on the floor 
And it kept breaking and breaking and breaking and breaking...
