Thick As Thieves (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

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 couldn’t keep,
And it was enough – we didn’t have to spoil anything,
And 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,
But it wasn’t enough – and now we’ve gone and spoiled everthing,
Now we’re no longer as thick as thieves.

You came into my life –
Then like a perfect stranger you walked away – walked away –
Walked away – walked 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 changes our minds,
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 we’ve gone and spoiled everything
Now we’re no longer as thick as thieves.

Thick As Thieves (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Remember how it all began
The apple and the fall of man
The price we paid
So the people say

Down the path of shame and let us dare
To bite the hand that fed us
Fairy tale, the moral end
Wheel of fortune, never turns again
Never turns again

The worst of it has come and gone
In the chaos of millennium
And the falling out
Of the doomsday crowd
Their last retreat is moving slow
They burn their bridges as they go
The heretic is beautified
Teach the harlot’s child to smile

Rocked again by indecision
Should we make that small incision
Testify, to the bleeding heart inside
We cut, we scratched
We ran, and we slashed
And when he opened up at last
Found a cul de sac
Deepened black
Of smoke and ash
Deepened black
Smoke and ash

The wicked king of parody
Is kissing all his enemies
On the seventh day
On the seventh week
The tyrant’s voice has softened now
But just for one forgiving hour
Before the rise of his
Iron fist again
Fist again

I’ve come tonight
I’ve come to know
The way we are the way we’ll go
And to measure this
The width of the wide abyss

I’ve come to you in restless sleep
Were all your dreams turned bitter sweet
With voodoo doll philosophies
Day gloy holy trinities
The wicked raft that leaves the shore
Of ferries drunken souls a board
Pilgrims march to Compostela
Of visions of their saint in yellow

Follow deep in trance
Lost in a catatonic dance
Know no future
Damn the past
Blind war, ecstatic
To save their lives
