Prince of Thieves (Demo) Lyrics by Louis Berry

.45 - EP

2015

[Verse 1]
I am what you think I am
A solider of the sky
A common prince of thieves
I am a master of disguise
But complicated conversations never go away
[Refrain]
You can put me in the courtyard
Or put me in the cage
But I won't play
[Verse 2]
A man of many deeds
So they did try to cut me down
I showed them what I mean
I pulled a loaded .45
'Cause people keep talkin' what they shouldn't say
[Refrain]
You can put me in the courtyard
Put me in the cage
But I won't play
[Chorus]
See, you've got to hide your feelings
They'll watch you and they'll beg
And then they'll bring you down
You gotta hold onto what you believe in
Even when they say
That words aren't made of sounds
And I don't wanna fear
Like I'm too old for this game
And I don't wanna fear
Like I'm too young for the hole
Like I'm too young for the grave
[Verse 3]
They couldn't find a man to recognise my frame of mind
So they put me in a suit and tried to keep a man in line
I twisted and I turned
But I couldn't pull away
[Refrain]
So they put me in a courtyard
Put me a cage
I would not play
[Verse 4]
They took me my hand into the corrugated doors
I stood there and I listened to the men inside the walls
I couldn't stop the laughter
Then one of them did say
[Refrain]
You can put him in the courtyard
Put him in a cage
But he won't play
[Chorus]
See, you've got to hide your feelings
They'll watch you and they'll beg
And then they'll bring you down
You gotta hold onto what you believe in
Even when they say
That words aren't made of sounds
And I don't wanna fear
Like I'm too old for this game
And I don't wanna fear
Like I'm too young for the hole
Like I'm too young for the grave
