Pickpocket Lyrics

Picked you out my pocket And you fell into the road You asked me if I'd make it better Asked me if we could grow old together
But you don't mean a thing to me So I walked by quite happily And now I guess that you've moved on as well
Took me to the bricks you stacked to build a wall, keep peace intact Protect your family, keep them from harm, live peacefully But they came crumbling down the second you left town And now your family are gone, are gone
Understand me, take me fully Underground where I cannot be found Understand me, take me fully Underground where I cannot be
Found a letter that you wrote That had been stashed inside my wall Telling me all about your life It had been there for a quite a while It skipped out certain chapters that I thought had really mattered And now I feel like I missed out
Out, baby out, get out of town Baby out, baby out, get out Baby out, baby out, get out of town Before it catches up with you and you cannot withstand Before it catches up with you and you cannot withstand Before it catches up with you and you cannot withstand
