I turned on the news, just yesterday
I didn't believe that all sense had gone astray
Tried to put it all down to ratify renegades
Lord what I have found? I proceeded to pray
It's a wonder what we hear, our hearts on our sleeves
When it's too much to bear, when they're hurt by the thieves
Chorus
The thieves are it again
Stealing my piece of mind
But they won't win
Because my soul they'll never find
The thieves are it again
Stealing my piece of mind
Can't get under my skin
Because my soul they'll never find
Go to work all tired, thinking about the plot
I'm trying to get inspired, but I got to beat the clock
If only I could be free to pursue all my dreams, life would be heavenly, don't you agree?
Life's so full of cruel taunts
And it's a wonder we wear our hearts on our sleeves
When it's too much to bear, when they're hurt by the thieves
And even though I've been wronged, I've gotta believe
I can't give up the fight, or give in to the thieves
Repeat Chorus
I'm sure it's not that bad (This is really messing with my head)
I'm sure it's not that bad (Take back all the things I said)
Try not to be so sad (From my life I know you should be leaving)
I know you think I'm mad (You better stop that silent thieving)
