Tyler Jarvis - Thief Lyrics

Midnight, staring at the ceiling
Can't fight how my heart's beating
Like someone is knocking at the door
And I've heard that voice before
It's harder than I thought to ignore
Saying you should give it up
Cause you're just not cool enough
So why bother trying to do what you love
Comparison's a thief faking love in the street
To every young heart that pays attention
Looks harmless like a child but he's been here a while
And knows the way to change what we see
To whatever he thinks we should see
Can't hide any of my feelings
He'll find out before I'm done speaking
I'm flirting with the fear of keeping up when I look at everyone
Maybe I just ran out of luck
It's not worth it anymore all this mental tug-of-war
I'm losing when I look at the score
Comparison's a thief faking love in the street
To every young heart that pays attention
Looks harmless like a child but he's been here a while
And knows the way to change what we see
To whatever he thinks we should see
Why don't we treat words like sticks and stones
I've found they have the power to break more than bones
Why don't we treat words like sticks and stones
I've found they have the power to break more than bones
Comparison's a thief faking love in the street
To every young heart that pays attention
Looks harmless like a child but he's been here a while
And knows the way to change what we see
Comparison's a thief faking love in the street
To every young heart that pays attention
Looks harmless like a child but he's been here a while
And knows the way to change what we see
To whatever he thinks we should see
