lyrics

The Jealous Thief

Some people don’t like me
But then they pretend
They ask me for my soul
As though I were a friend
The very thing that they want is the thing they despise
This complex creature can do nothing but hide behind me

If you delve deeper you will see
Don’t applaud this mystery
Cause’ I’m a fool to work for the jealous thief
The jealous thief

My burdens you will think
Were there's after all
I’ll barely be standing before this joke gets applause
We want them to reveal their true desires
Like a vampire, like the dead
It can only take life

(Chorus)

The jealous thief is in love with my soul
But I make them feel cold
And I don’t give them hope
Cause’ I’m a fool to work for the jealous thief

(Chorus)
