Thick As Thieves (Demo Version)

Times were so tough

But not as tough as they are now

We were so close

And nothing came between us, and the world

No personal situations

Thick as thieves us

We'd stick together for all time

And we meant it but it turns out just for a while, we stole

The friendship that bound us together

We stole from the schools and their libraries

We stole from the drugs that sent us to sleep

We stole from the drink that made us sick

We stole anything that we could keep

And it was enough

We didn't have to spoil anything

We'd always be as thick as thieves

Like a perfect stranger

You came into my life

Then like the perfect Lone Ranger

You rode away, rode away

Rode away, rode away

We stole the love from young girls in ivory towers

We stole autumn leaves and summer showers

We stole the silent wind that says you are free

We stole everything that we could see

And it wasn't enough

We didn't have to spoil anything

We'd always be as thick as thieves

Like a perfect stranger

You came into my life

Then like the perfect Lone Ranger

You rode away, rode away

Rode away, rode away

Thick as thieves us

We'd stick together for all time

And we meant it but it turns out just for awhile, we stole

The friendship that bound us together

We stole the burning sun in the open sky

We stole the twinkling stars in the black night

We stole the green belt fields that made us believe

We stole everything that we could see

But something came along that changed our minds

And I don't know what and I don't know why

But we seemed to grow up in a flash of time

While we watched our ideals helplessly unwind

No, we're no longer as thick as thieves, no

We're not as thick as we used to be, no

We're no longer as thick as thieves, no

We're not as thick as we used to be

No, it wasn't enough

And now we've gone and spoiled everything

Now we're no longer as thick as thieves
