Ballad of the Thief Lyrics

Deep inside your eyes

I'm spotting all the lies

You're trying to hide from me

You say gambling can be wise

Cause it's really hard to rise

In this shallow society

Right behind your face

You hide your evil ace

And you wait for me to play

But it's a shadow what you chase

Cause you're walking by a trace

That will slowly fade away

I will never play your game

Things would never be the same

It's not me you have to blame

I don't share your belief

The Ballad of the thief

You want me to go blind

And love to fill my mind

With pictures of what you do

Even though you look so fine

I may offer you some wine

But I won't give up to you

Tell me why you're still

Selling me as real

What I see on my phone

You are very fine to see

And I like your company

But I live on my own

All is perfect in your frame

Steal the money for the fame

But I still find it lame

So you won't be my chief

The Ballad of the Thief

But now I know your plan

To conquer every man

And take them inside your hole

And you know I'll stay away

Cause I know that you will pay

For everything you stole

You'll forget about my name

I'll keep everything you claim

You may say I got no shame

But my name is not Riff
