Thieves & Villains All I Needed
Darling you disarm me with a look that fierce
that I'm alarmed it took as long as it did.
I don't write you much I know it's a god damn shame.
In a detroit moment breathe quiet resistance
to the car alarms and the shouts in the distance.
I've given up I know no better way.
When all I needed was something to believe in
I have thrown my faith away but my hope grows.
And all I needed was something to believe in.
I have kept the change alive as I unfold tonight.
I've come back home sick with sex on my breath for the last time.
I can't stomach the steps I have to take again to sweat you out.
I have gone to waste for the last time.
So fortunate I'm cursed so tangible it hurts.
I just want to make you feel something real enough to stay alive.
Approach the world with open eyes
and you will find there's heart in mind
