Thieves in the Night

[Intro]
Pray for the day, that it all goes away
Pray and you'll pray and you’ll pray and you'll pray
But it's coming to stay, coming to stay
The darkness it washes, it washes away
Pray for the day, that it all goes away
Pray and you’ll pray and you'll pray and you'll pray
But it's coming to stay, coming to stay
The darkness it washes, it washes away

[Verse]
Pick me up out of this haze
The blistering blaze of my enemy's gaze
Their darkness will bind, a grip on my time
But the sand rushes by, it keeps rushing by

[Chorus]
So, upward we climb (echoed in time)
Confusion is blind (nothing will rhyme)
We're thieves in the night (thieves in the night)
Thieves in the night (thievеs in the night)
So, upward we climb (echoеd in time)
Confusion is blind (nothing will rhyme)
We're thieves in the night (thieves in the night)
Thieves in the night (thieves in the night)

[Bridge]
You've nestled me in this heart of stone
You’ve made this heaven-less hell your home
But now you cry out, you scream and moan
Oh God, how didn’t you know?
You pray and wish the sky away
Blew out the candles this dying day
But we've been bleeding the words to say
To take what remains

[Chorus]
So, upward we climb (echoed in time)
Confusion is blind (nothing will rhyme)
We’re thieves in the night (thieves in the night)
Thieves in the night (thieves in the night)
So, upward we climb (echoed in time)
Confusion is blind (nothing will rhyme)
We're thieves in the night (thieves in the night)
Thieves in the night (thieves in the night)

[Outro]
Skirt out the shadows in silhouette
As the hour slinked toward Bethlehem
And the star doth blow at the precipice
To be born again
The world defeated fell at their knees
At the altar of this slouching beast
Oh, the king in waiting is speaking peace
This is the end
