Been trying hard to think of something nice
About you just to paint you in a better light
Only time we talk is when we fight
You told me that I stole your best years
That's not something i'm supposed to hear
Like father, all your children turn to beer
I'm a thief
If I leave and that hit the reset
And the years that I stole
That could have been your best
Got returned to the time
That you first heard my scream
In my last heartbeat
I would give them to you
Would that make it alright
I don't have much to lose
You're a thief of all my best years
Wish I could've had less years
I would give back my life
You're a thief of all my best years
You're a thief of all my best years
Keeping men around wouldn't be so hard
Could've had the money
Could've made your mark
You never even told me what your real dreams are
You wouldn't have a kid stuck in rehab
My downward spiral, going mad
We've both dreamed about the life you could've had
And I don't wanna waste
All your weeks and your days
On the same shit that got you
Stuck here in this place
So if you want them back
God, I wish you'd just take em
Cause i'm wasting them anyways
I would give them to you
Would that make it alright
I don't have much to lose
You're a thief of all my best years
Wish I could've had less years
I would give back my life
You're a thief of all my best years, best years
You're a thief of all my best years
Wish I could've had less years
You're a thief of all my best years, best years
You're a thief of all my best years
Wish I could've had less years
