Thunder Thief (feat. Jane Silence) - Schaffer The Darklord

Something to believe in

‘Cause all I see is reachin'

I need things to sink my teeth in

In your eyes I’m seein'

Got that sinking feelin'

And now you’re going under it’s your thunder that I’m stealin'

(So give me) One good reason

(Just) Something to believe in

(‘Cause) ‘Cause all I see is reachin'

I need things to sink my teeth in (teeth in)

In your eyes I’m seein' (seein')

Got that sinking feelin' (feelin')

And now you’re going under it’s your thunder that I’m stealin'

High five

Up high

Down low?

Oh too slow

No really, though

You’re having to go with the business of show

So way to go, but I don’t know

About your work, maybe someday you will make it better

Not bad for an amateur

You gave it a shot, A for effort

Take a letter

And this bitter pill for swallowing

And break a leg

But I hear it’s awfully hard to follow me

And opening up for me it ain’t no picnic neither

Either you get booed

Or you play to

An empty room

Because no one will be there

Alert!

Emergency!

You need rehearsal urgently!

You’re paying your dues, but choosing third world currency

I recall those days in hazy memories, you know

You kind of remind me of me

Minus eloquence and energy

And everybody knows it

And you’re probably getting sick of it

I haven’t slept in days, I’m drunk, and still I’m more articulate

Go on hit me with your best shot, come on- do your worst

And then just watch me win an Oscar for pretending it hurts

(But it won’t!)

Nice try, little buddy

High five, watching with

Sidelines, ‘cause it’s my time

Bye Bye

I’m a thunder thief

A cunning sneak

I’m coming up from underneath

To undermine

I’m unrefined

But I might have to blow your mind

Nice try, little buddy

High five, watching with

Sidelines, ‘cause it’s my time

Bye Bye

I’m a thunder thief

A cunning sneak

I’m coming up from underneath

To undermine

I’m unrefined

But I might have to blow your mind

Oh my every time you speak, I think you’re finally fine

But them I’m reminded your fatal flaws are underlined and underscored

And I’ve ignored it, for so long intentionally

I’d sing your praises;

well they’re enough to mention we have little in common

There’s nothing wrong and feeding from the bottom

I’ve done it too, just not as often

Once you get your fire, and you’ve climbed a little higher

Then admire me, as the goal to which you will aspire

(Alright, alright, alright, alright)

All night as I caught your sight I saw that you got white

But it’s alright

Don’t be frightened by it, it’s just called a spotlight

And it won’t bite

Obscurity can be a safe place

Never embarrassed means you’ll never have to save face

So if you quit while you’re behind, and now it’s time to retire

I say you made a fine attempt, because I’m kind of a liar

And should you get inspired for another try- reminder

Like DMC advised- you and your kind can call me sire

(So) Nice try, little buddy

High five, watching with

Sidelines, ‘cause it’s my time

Bye Bye

I’m a thunder thief

A cunning sneak

I’m coming up from underneath

To undermine

I’m unrefined

But I might have to blow your mind

(So) Nice try, little buddy

High five, watching with

Sidelines, ‘cause it’s my time

Bye Bye

I’m a thunder thief

A cunning sneak

I’m coming up from underneath

To undermine

I’m unrefined

But I might have to blow your mind

So nice try (One good reason)

High five (Something to believe in)

Sidelines (Cause all I see is reachin')

My Time, Bye bye (I need things to sink my teeth in)

I’m a thunder thief (In your eyes I’m seein')

I’m coming up from underneath (Got that sinkin' feelin')

Yeah I’m a thunder thief (Now you’re going under it’s your)

I’m a thunder thief (Thunder that I’m stealin')

So nice try (One good reason)

High five (Something to believe in)

Sidelines (Cause all I see is reachin')

My Time, Bye bye (I need things to sink my teeth in)

I’m a thunder thief (In your eyes I’m seein')

I’m coming up from underneath (Got that sinkin' feelin')

Yeah I’m a thunder thief (Now you’re going under it’s your)

I’m a thunder thief (Thunder that I’m stealin')
