Dashboard Confessional "Thick As Thieves" |
Would it kill you to breathe easy? Only 17 miles lay between you and me. I could make it if I had to. I don't break easily. You got my counsel, thick as thieves. If there's a crime, we'll keep it secret, For there's only trace amounts left in your blood. You may be a sinner, But you may be justified. Just keep your mouth shut. Keep your guard up. I swear I'll make it right. Will it kill me to breathe? Not as easy as you think it is. Between you and me, I could fake it if I have to. I don't break easily. I need your counsel, thick as thieves. I have no crime to keep a secret. It was hers, it was not mine. Well I may be a sinner, But it wasn't me this time. Just keep your mouth shut. Keep your guard up. I swear I'll make it right. Well, listen to yourself, There is a hemorrhage in your mouth. It won't stop bleeding. Well, you may be the trigger. I will hold the smoking gun. You'll get away clean, I'll keep your secrets 'til the grave has swallowed me. And I will never tell a tortured soul there burning by my side, That I am a sinner. I am a savior. I am a lie. So keep your mouth shut. Keep your guard up. I swear I'll make it right. Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
