The Crypt - Thief Lyrics

(You thief) Are you fascinated from what's under the dirt?
(You thief) To break the ground and disturb what's left and force rebirth
But can you hear them begging louder till they break through the earth
Snatching the corpse and moving towards the profits they earn

A broken life for the crooked and weak
Selling a body to make ends meet
Tearing at the living so worn and scorn
Disappoint those of the unborn (You thief)

Did you ever realize that the afterlife should remain inside?
Do you fear if the dead you steal is worse than death in your eyes?

And when you break the surface of the earth
The only thing on your mind is what that flesh is worth
And so you dig, dig, dig, deeper and deeper
To steal the soul from the son of the reaper

Thief, Thief
From the son of the reaper

Let's go to a place where the dead cease to sleep
We'll dig up the bodies and leave the rest to the keep
And so you dig, dig, dig, deeper and deeper
To steal the soul from the son of the reaper

There will be no rest, there will be no peace

And when you break the surface of the earth
The only thing on your mind is what that flesh is worth
And so you dig, dig, dig, deeper and deeper
To steal the soul from the son of the reaper

Thief, Thief
From the son of the reaper
