Keep your distance, Back off from my ice cold sorrow
Wish pasts could be forgot so I could trust tomorrow
Don't touch, eyes dart too much
Sharp teeth, fast feet, stabbed gut
My tightly wrapped blanket forever frayed
My faith in public life begins to fade
Pre-chorus:
Closer to madness
Nitro'd by sadness
Each daylight robbery removes some skin
Torment inside
From the city now I hide
Into naked darkness I begin
Chorus:
This robbery has stolen me my courage
This robbery has stole my peace of mind
Ashamed of first world problems
Still I shake from top to bottom
This robbery has stolen me, my luxury of safety.
Can you comfort me in arms so strong, so safe
PUsh the world back to its proper place
When eyes close, see the face
Thief hits, thief runs, thief wastes.
And though the cops will never solve the case
I'll go on loving this great human race.
