THIEF
(As performed by: Our Lady Peace)
I don't want to understand this horror
There's a weight in your eyes, I can't admit
Everybody ends up here in bottles
But the name tag's the last thing you wanted
As the world explodes we fall out of it
And we can't let go because this will not go away
There's a house built out in space...
I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
And I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
But I can be your, be your...
Someone help us understand who ordered
This disgusting arrangement; time and the end
I don't want to hear who walked on water
Cause the hallways are empty, clocks tick
As the world implodes we fall into it
And we can't go home because this will not go away
There's a house built out in space...
I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
And I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
It's a long, long getaway
It's a long, long getaway
Make it home again
Make it home again
It's a long, long getaway
It's a long, long getaway...
I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
But I can be your, be your out of here
And I can be your, be your out of here
It's a long, long getaway...
There's a weight in your eyes, I can't admit
Everybody ends up here in bottles
But the name tag's the last thing you wanted
As the world explodes we fall out of it
And we can't let go because this will not go away
There's a house built out in space...
I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
And I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
But I can be your, be your...
Someone help us understand who ordered
This disgusting arrangement; time and the end
I don't want to hear who walked on water
Cause the hallways are empty, clocks tick
As the world implodes we fall into it
And we can't go home because this will not go away
There's a house built out in space...
I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
And I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
It's a long, long getaway
It's a long, long getaway
Make it home again
Make it home again
It's a long, long getaway
It's a long, long getaway...
I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
But I can be your, be your out of here
And I can be your, be your out of here
It's a long, long getaway...
By far one of my favorite songs.... and by one of my favorite artists.... It may interest you to know that this song was written about a young girl in Ontario with an inoperable brain tumor. Raine and his wife Chantal met the young girl and then wrote this song in her honor. Have a listen.
