The Thief - Short term investment Lyrics




This is not some egocentric autobiography
It's just a word of caution if you choose to get close to me
I'm not the average heart filled guy you can use whenever you need
I'm passionate about what I do and that's all I need to feel

I never thought I had it in me to stand against the wind
But as the years slipped away my old raincoat got too thin
I knew this was something bigger than me in my comfort zone
I had to step into the daylight and face it on my own

We could die at any given moment, maybe at home or out in the street
Yes, it's a dark starting point in the morning but it reminds you to appreciate the routines

I'm a short-term investment
If you can't keep up with my sarcastic tone
The mere weight and the darkness
Might be too much for you to carry home

From a childhood nice and safe into a toxic grown up world
I still wonder where it went but I have given up my search
This is the modern standard, it's not better anywhere else
Keep telling me to shut up but my questions will never end

We could die at any given moment, maybe at home or out in the street
Yes, it's a dark starting point in the morning but it reminds you to appreciate the routines

I'm a short-term investment
If you can't keep up with my sarcastic tone
The mere weight and the darkness
Might be too much for you to carry home

You know, once you've seen the downside it's never that far away
Some things can't be unseen and I'm collecting them to this day
I know my humor is dark and foul just like the future I foresee
Well, I'm comfortable where I am as I'm counting on you to leave

We could die at any given moment, maybe at home or out in the street
Yes, it's a dark starting point in the morning but it reminds you to appreciate the routines

I'm a short-term investment
If you can't keep up with my sarcastic tone
The mere weight and the darkness
Might be too much for you to carry home

I'm just another nobody in the middle of a no man's land
My only footprints here will be what I made by hand
And if my songs and lyrics should deeply speak to you
You might have to rethink, rethink your whole life through

We could die at any given moment, maybe at home or out in the street
Yes, it's a dark starting point in the morning but it reminds you to appreciate the routines

I'm a short-term investment
If you can't keep up with my sarcastic tone
The mere weight and the darkness
Might be too much for you to carry home
