soul stealers - leslie fish lyrics

[verse 1]
they come to your cradle early when you’re still too young to fight
and they pull away the covers, and they take away the light
and they put your mom and dad to sleep, so it does no good to yell
soul stealers come to steal your soul and cast you into h*ll

[verse 2]
they slip a black sack over your head, and they whisper, “it’s only a dream”
they paralyze your body, so you cannot run nor scream
helpless and invisible, they carry you away
right past your sleeping family just at the break of day

[chorus]
soul stealers! soul stealers! catch you in their plan
soul stealers! soul stealers! resist them if you can

[verse 3]
soul stealers’ ways are many and hard to understand
for they murmur words of comfort as they take you by the hand
they’ll show you the painted horses, and they’ll tell you what to feel
and if you disagree with them, they’ll break you on the wheel

[verse 4]
and when you’ve learned to agree with them and that struggle won’t avail
they’ll teach you games to play with them; they’ll teach you how to fail
they’ll slip cold shackles around your feet, and they’ll beat you in the race
and they’ll teach you that’s your lot in life; they’ll teach you that’s your place
[chorus]
soul stealers! soul stealers! catch you in their plan
soul stealers! soul stealers! resist them if you can

[verse 5]
they steal the light out of your eyes and the thoughts out of your brain
they steal the songs right off your lips and the life blood from your veins
they’ll bend your back and they’ll break your heart; they’ll use you as they will
they will teach you how to work for them, and your soul they’ll take and k!ll

[verse 6]
and now you know why your daddy drank and why his hair turned gray
and why your mom so seldom laughed, and why they could not play
and now you think that the soul stealers were a nightmare long ago
but you’re haunted by an emptiness that will not let you go

[chorus]
soul stealers! soul stealers! catch you in their plan
soul stealers! soul stealers! resist them if you can
