Thief of words Thief of mind Is it envy? Resonation? Or is that poetry mine? You mine and you dig at my future thoughts Dig away at my throat till the language is lost Tossed, torn, thrown aside I lied you cried , you're a tourist to my eyes Shacked up in this place just somewhere to hide Then I finally realised They're yours to keep Maybe to be a poet I am just too weak you're a thief of mind Thief of soul Carrier of mystery Miner of gold Float along now With your shoulder strung sack You're striped stealing suit And your pen, jet black Write the things I'm going to say Cause they'll choke on my tongue or hit the hay anyway
