Future Islands - The Thief (Official Audio)

’The Thief’ taken from ’People Who Aren’t There Anymore’ out now, via 4AD Lyrics: I never had a place to call my own And slept so many nights out all alone I spent so many hours slowly breaking in And finally found someone who’d let me in But if I said too much, please let me know It wouldn’t be the first time I’ve been told I got this darkened tongue from this bitter cold Needed a little light to follow home I’d tip-toe past the lights I’d hit the glow Another silent night Found no one home This bric-a-brac has life that someone knows A pit-er-pat, of life, that I’ve been shown So I sit on my hands now Sit on my hands now Sit on my hands now When you leave I sit on my hands now Sit on my hands now Sit on my hands A little thief I know, I’ve been gone But I’ve been here all along Hidden in the things you keep Treasures that you went and buried deep…
