She wonders what's in it for me
Maybe I should show her a little bit of mercy
I've got her, but still I feel so alone
She wants love something I can't give
She wants more, no, I'm not ready for it
Got other reasons to live

You know that I'm guarded that I'm running away
You can come and go, I don't want you to stay
Oh no, no, I don't want you to stay

Cause I'm a thief and I'm a liar
Take these flames put out the fire
I'm not sure what you thought of me
Stick around and then you'll see
There's nothing for you, nothing for us
Got no time for love, no time for trust
Always find a need to leave
Baby, I'm a thief
Baby, I'm a thief

She wonders what's in it for me
Holding onto any little thing I give
So she don't feel so alone
I need space something she can't give
She wants time but I'm done wasting it
Got other reasons to live

You know that I'm guarded that I'm running away
You can come and go, I don't want you to stay
Oh no, no, I don't want you to stay

Cause I'm a thief and I'm a liar
Take these flames put out the fire
I'm not sure what you thought of me
Stick around and then you'll see
There's nothing for you, nothing for us
Got no time for love, no time for trust
Always find a need to leave
Baby, I'm a thief
Baby, I'm a thief
Yeah, oh oh oh

I don't know why I do the things that I do
I paint a picture in your head, you paint a picture for two
The worst part is its nothing new
I gave the sentence yet you're the one that tightens the noose
You know I got this fear of being alone
The same time I can't let anyone in my home
I know your hurting, but I don't know how to heal
Just another heart that I steal

Cause I'm a thief and I'm a liar
Take these flames put out the fire
I'm not sure what you though of me
Stick around and then you'll see
There's nothing for you, nothing for us
Got no time for love, no time for trust
Always find a need to leave
Baby, I'm a thief
Baby, I'm a thief...
