The Theft lyrics

He bends and he breaks

If he gives they will take away

His passion, his pain, his grace

He exhales

A thousand black flowers explode

Into butterflies as they're away

Rip them out, take them

Burn to coals as they crush and leave nothing

That resembles a soul of a man

(See him numb, see him crushed)

See him numb, see him crushed

Rip them out, take them

Burn to coals as they crush and leave nothing

That resembles a soul of a man

(Leave them numb, leave them crushed)

Leave them numb, leave them crushed

Took the fire inside

One too many times

He's burning over and out now

He flails

Up against the raging tides

No more fights

Everything you ever wanted to see

See it in his eyes

One more time, one more time

Climb down to test the waters

My hands feel like they're rusting away, yeah, yeah, yeah

So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter

I'll stay here as long as you let me

Decision's been made obvious so I will return

Where I started I'll stay here

When I'm finished I'll whither away

Rip them out, take them

Burn to coals as they crush and leave nothing

That resembles a soul of a man

(See him numb, see him crushed)

See him numb, see him crushed

Rip them out, take them

Burn to coals as they crush and leave nothing

That resembles a soul of a man

(Leave them numb, leave them crushed)

Leave them numb, leave them crushed
