Crooked Thief

Took my last dime
like you stole 
my last heart before it hit the ground
Crook thief is what you are
you claim you my best friend
More like a copy cat
When I look in the mirror it's like
 I' am looking at another reflection of a twin

Crooked thief
Crooked thief
Crooked thief

I broke bread with you
I shared my moments with you
even introduce you to my family and friends

I can't even turn my back without
worrying that you will stab me in the back again

I pulled out the last straw and this one was short
So more like it's time to cut you off

Crooked thief
Crooked thief
Crooked thief

you got to go if you don't understand
I will spell it out for you

CUT OFF
Don't need you in my life
Tired of standing up for you
every time
when you do wrong
its seem like I' am always
the one standing in the cold
covering up for all your lies

No more
Only blood begin shed here
is mine
You cut 
You leave
I 'am running out of bandages to cover up these cuts and bruises
No more of me caught in your lies
I' am cutting you off
I' am moving on
So take this last advice
You cut off
I don't need a crooked thief in my life
