Pendown - Same Old Crime Lyrics

I haven't seen the sky for a second today
I was locked behind a door and a curtain so grey
It wouldn't let me catch a glimpse of the outside
I can't tell the difference between day and night
I've lost my sense for time, time and time again
I missed the ticking of the clock and the hours melt away
I was busy arguing with the voice inside
I guess you've won again, you sneaky stupid mind

You're a thief, a liar, with a wicked smile and eyes on fire
Burning words into my head and every time I believe everything you say
Cause you're a liar, with a wicked smile and eyes on fire
Burning words into my head and every time I believe everything you say

It's just a trick, I've seen it a thousand times, how come I repeat the same old crime
I know how it works, I know when it hurts it's too late I'm already hearing the words
Convincing me to hang myself up on my fears, down from my shelf
My shelf is empty, books are gone, no more fiction to hold on to
Stranger places, foreign worlds, making me forget to hurt
Reminding me of better times, without the pain without the crime
Give back what you stole from me
I want you to set them free
I want you locked up deep inside, in chains cause you're a thief

You're a thief, a liar, with a wicked smile and eyes on fire
Burning words into my head and every time I believe everything you say
Cause you're a liar, with a wicked smile and eyes on fire
Burning words into my head and every time I believe everything you say

I might have lost the day to you but I'm not scared to make it through
I'll give my life another shot so come and show me what you've got
Tie me up and knock me down, I'm used to rest on cold dead ground
Eat me whole and spit me out, I'll get back up without a doubt
I might have lost the day to you but I'm not scared to make it through
I'll give my life another shot so come and show me what you've got
Tie me up and knock me down, I'm used to rest on cold dead ground
Eat me whole and spit me out, I'll get back up without a doubt
I might have lost the day to you but I'm not scared to make it through
I'll give my life another shot so come and show me what you've got
Tie me up and knock me down, I'm used to rest on cold dead ground
Eat me whole and spit me out, I'll get back up without a doubt

You're a thief, a liar, with a wicked smile and eyes on fire
Burning words into my head and every time I believe everything you say
Cause you're a liar, with a wicked smile and eyes on fire
Burning words into my head and every time I believe everything you say
