Lisa Bullard - Band of Thieves

I'm holding on to what we used to be
Holding on to every single memory
Do you see the difference between now and then?
Everyone so happy all the time, everyone would fit in
Used to be living in the spotlight, now you're just forgotten
Used to smile so constantly you feel awkward when you're not
But you manage to fake a smile anyway, to take it off at the end of each day
You get to thinking, who do you smile for?
You might as well not smile at all
So this one's to the band of thieves
The misfits hiding in each corner
The ones who try to make a difference
Who may not even make a dent
The one who had a difficult time
Crying himself to sleep that one night
This one's to the band of thieves
The band of misfits in every shadow
Don't you want to be five years old again, making best friends with every stranger?
Not caring what the person looks like, but knowing that they're perfect inside
But turn around and that life's all gone, so you decide to give in to reality
Don't you notice the girl in the corner with the tear streaming down her face?
So this one's to the band of thieves
The misfits hiding in each corner
The ones who try to make a difference
Who may not even make a dent
The girl who tried to talk to the pretty girls
Then got shunned for the rest of her life
This one's to the band of thieves
The band of misfits in every shadow
Please tell me you see me here
I know your life's not that easy
Don't you know I'm suffering too?
I just need a shoulder to cry on
Go give the girl in the corner your hug
Cause that might change the world
So this one's to the band of thieves
The misfits hiding in each corner
The ones who try to make a difference
Who may not even make a dent
This one's to the band of thieves
The band of misfits in every shadow
