lyrics to "thick as thieves" by dashboard confessional....gosh it just speaks to me..i'll never be able to explain the hold it has over me.
"Would it kill you to breathe easy?
Only seventeen miles lay
Between you and me
I could make it if I had to
I don't break easily
You've got my counsel, thick as thieves
If there's a crime we'll keep it secret,
For there's only trace amounts left in your blood.
You may be a sinner, but you may be justified.
Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
Will it kill me to breathe?
Not as easy as you think it is.
Between you and me
I can fake it if I have to
I don't break easily
I need your counsel, thick as thieves
I have no crime to keep a secret
It was hers. it was not mine
I may be a sinner, but it wasn't me this time.
Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
Well listen to yourself
There is a hemorrhage in your mouth
It won't stop bleeding
Well you may be the trigger
But I will hold the smoking gun
You'll get away clean
I'll keep your secrets 'til the grave has swallowed me
And I will never tell a tortured soul they're burning by my side
That I am a sinner
I am a savior
I am a lie."
