Simpson, Charlie - Forty Thieves Lyrics






My body is toxic
And now there’s visitors living in my veins yet
I’m just a host in their selfish games well
Oh god where are you now?
I thought you loved us all the same

I was up looking for you all night
I’m sure I heard your voice in the darkness
I was up looking for you all night
'cos you know you are the fortress I am bound too

I was shattered when I found you
And all your skin was white there were crystal lines running
Between your lips and
Down through your spine there was
Nothing in your eyes that I could recognise
For the pain you left I hope you made it there

I was up looking for you all night
I’m sure I heard your voice in the darkness
I was up looking for you all night
'cos you know you are the fortress I am bound too

It’s funny how the simplest things
Are often the hardest
But all I ever wanted was to love you

I was up looking for you all night
I’m sure I heard your voice in the darkness
I was up looking for you all night
'cos you know you are the fortress I am bound too

    Love it!! Why does it say still young though??

    G.... R....

    I'd guess it's cus of the first album being called Young Pilgrim 

    G.... R....

    @Spedly I think it's more that the title of the track is 'Forty Thieves' and the 'Still Young' part is an error, referring to a different track (two videos ago).

  16. J.... K....

    Great song

  17. W.... D....

    The beginning sounded like a fightstar track

    W.... D....

    Yeah a lil bit like Mono

    W.... D....

    Yeah one of their best tracks as well. Fightstar are my fav band

    W.... D....

    William Doyle I know I'm 2 years late but yeah it kinda reminds me of We Left Tracks of Fire (the beginning) and sounds like it's straight out of a Fightstar album.
