River Bigby - Thief

Just like that
We were gone
It didn't take us very long
A moment held
In hands like stone
But felt like rain
Eyes cried storms
You were here
Next day not
You came to me
But you were lost
At least I thought when you spoke soft
Words are twisted
But hurt like frost
Bitter cold
Keep us warm
Inside a house
Of four wheels and doors
I picked you up
Didn't drop you off
You couldn't leave
Never had the guts
I forced you in to shelter me
From a mind of misery
And full of rot
What's the use
When one can't love
The only one that they have got
I'm just corrupt in my old ways
Of telling lies to make you stay
I couldn't help it
If it's not mine
Then I just take
I'm just a thief
But I'll only steal from me
All I wanted was a piece
You were always free
You were never really mine to keep
But a thief is always a thief
A thief is always a thief
Seasons changed leaves dropped off
The branches they were rotten on
And snow was falling
And we were just caught up
Pathetic on my own
I have no trust
I crushed the life from you in spots
Like diamonds they are all still rocks
I broke you down
But you were strong
I was a strangler
You were beauty
Pure and young
I turned your cheeks
Made you cold
Showed you scorn of heavy loves
Dragged you down
Turned you into mud
So if you don't want me at all
Why did you stay so fucking long
Was there something in your heart
Or was it me that did not belong
Or did I steal you all along
I'm worse it seems
Than I had thought
I'm worse it seems than I had thought
If it's not mine
Then I just take
We never were
But we are fake
Fast fading characters of days
Gone to grey
I only stole it just to waste
I only steal to feel the pain
I only take the things we made
A prisoner of mind untamed
I just take
I'm just a thief
