DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL Thick As Thieves Lyrics

"Thick As Thieves"

Would it kill you to breath easy
Only seventeen miles lay between you and me
I could make it if I had to
I don?t break easily
You?ve got my counsel thick as thieves
If there?s a crime, we?ll keep it secret
For there?s only trace amounts left in your blood

You may be a sinner, but you may be justified

Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I?ll make it right

Will it kill me to breath
Not as easy as you think it is
Between you and me
I could fake it if I have to
I don?t break easily
I need your counsel thick as thieves
I have no crime to keep a secret
It was hers it was not mine

Well I may be a sinner, but it wasn?t me this time

Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I?ll make it right

Well listen to yourself
There is a hemorrhage in your mouth
It won?t stop bleeding

Well, you may be the traitor
I will hold the smoking gun
You?ll get away clean
I?ll keep your secrets
Till the grave has swallowed me
And I will never tell a tortured soul
That are burning by my side
That I am a sinner, I am a savior, I am alive

So keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I?ll make it right
