Spock's Beard - The Water: III: A Thief in the Night lyrics

I was a general

Of darkness and light

I was to be the major man

It was some kind of sight

I was going to stand alone

And do what was right

Now I'm just another stepping stone

A thief in the night

So where were all of those

Angels and priests

Who said they'd carry me

Beyond my beliefs

Where are all of them now

They're gone from my sight

My mother and father deserted me

Like thieves in the night

Yes, where are all of them now

They're gone from my side

My mother and father deserted me

Like thieves in the night

I was the water

I was the ocean king

I ruled the red sky

I could do anything

'Til you, you

You messed me up

You, you

You all messed me up
