Thieves of Legendary Degree

Writer's picture: Jeremy PalmerJeremy Palmer

I don’t care, I want to learn

If we’re bound to crash and burn

If that’s so, I want to choke

On that seductive, sensual smoke

I don’t care if it’s cancerous

I want to know what the answer is

Die of Disease

                Or not know

Where this is gunna go?

Of the possible projection

My selection is to ingest the infection

Does this end in miraculous magic

Or chaos, quite catastrophic

 

I will be the king

                You, your majesty?

Perhaps

                The queen of tragedy

 

Or maybe

                You and me

We are thieves of legendary degree

Born to be bandits but not lovers

Until we stole the hearts of each other’s

I am your intimate invader

You, my pretty perpetrator

Criminals with concealed identities

Masterminds of this insanity

Stealing love from a world of disbelief

Performing an impossible feat

Picket pocketing Truth from Deceit

 

Time for one last epic heist

Hustle some happiness out of this hectic life

If authorities give chase

We will run one,

Wonderful, final race

Blind lovers on the lamb

Being forever chased by the The Man

Down the dirt road

Into the desert of the damned

I just want you

To be where I am

 

I am in it – FULL SEND

I don’t even care what’s at the end

This might sound

                Absolutely Absurd

But

                Here we go

Burn

Baby

Burn
