Lyrics: Sarah Slean. Night Bugs. Me, I'm a Thief.

Here comes again
Blood in the vein
Seven a.m., the cars come
Gotta fly, gotta say goodbye
Leave them before they leave me

Turning the sheets
Rolling in his sleep
He wants me to go faster
I know that she's somewhere underneath
But I don't know how to find her

Me, I'm a thief
I'm a falling star
I'm a photograph taken
From where you are

I love you still, always will
Here's hoping you'll be waiting, but I
Gotta fly, gotta say good bye
Gotta find out what's aching

Me, I'm a thief
I'm a falling star
I'm a photograph taken
From where you are

So, shed your tears
That's what they're for
I don't expect you to understand this
War

I go quietly
("And, oh, they beg me to steal")
No, you don't get me
("There's nothing, nothing to feel")
No, you don't get me
("And, oh, they beg me to steal")

Oh, me, I'm a thief
I'm a falling star
I'm a photograph taken
From where you are

Shed your tears
That's what they're for

I don't expect you to understand this
War

Me, I'm a thief
("Here comes again, blood in the vein")
I'm a falling star
("Seven a.m., the cars come")
I'm a photograph taken
("Here comes again, blood in the vein")
From where you are
("Seven a.m., the cars come")

Shed your tears
("Here comes again, blood in the vein")
That's what they're for
("Seven a.m., the cars come")
I don't expect you to understand this
("Here come again, blood in the vein")
War
("Seven a.m., the cars come")

Me, I'm a thief
("Here comes again, blood in the vein")
Oh, I'm a falling star
("Seven a.m., the cars come")
I'm a photograph taken
("Here comes again, blood in the vein")
From where you are
("Seven a.m., the cars come")

So, shed your tears
("Here comes again, blood in the vein")
'Cause that's what they're for
("Seven a.m., the cars come")
I don't expect you to understand this
("Here comes again, blood in the vein")
War
("Seven a.m., the cars come")
