Greatest Theft Lyrics

Save me from myself

I'm becoming someone else

I know I'm not good at just listening

I know your plans are good

And your heart is kind

But I won't pretend like this

World hasn't got my mind

And I don't need my name in lights

Or something more pretty

It's a lot more simple

And a matter of dignity

If I give you all of me

Will there be anything left

Does a God steal human hearts

Isn't that the greatest theft

I tried to go to church

But I couldn't find you there

There was a spirit in the room

A TED talk from a millionaire

I know you're in the trees

And the birds hear your song

I'd rather walk alone

And just humm along

And I don't think I'm bitter

At your shepherds or their flock

I just want to do it better

Somehow I think that's what youd want

I'll ignore the manager story

I like it better when you're a king

When we finally meet in heaven

I want a diamond and a ring

Cause I tried really hard

To be your special little boy

But since Moses struck the rock

Gods don't give that anymore

And I thought we could be one

The mortal and divine

But you don't share your glory

At least not with humankind

If I let go

Will there be anything left

If I let go

Will there be anything left

If I let go

Will there be anything left

If I let go

Will there be anything left

I know there won't
