The Theft Lyrics

von Atreyu

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 him numb, Leave him crushed)
Leave him numb, leave him crushed

Took the fire inside
One too many times
His burning's over and out now,
He fails,
Up against the raging tides,
No more fights,
Everything you ever wanted to see,
I 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,
So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter,
I'll stay here, as long as you let me,
Decisions, then, made obvious
So I'll return to where I started, I'll stay there,
Unfinished,
I'll wither 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 him numb, Leave him crushed)
Leave him numb, leave him crushed
