Body Thief from Scottmandu by Scottmandu

It was summer you were sleeping
With your window open wide
Like a stalker I came creeping
Through the darkness to your side

In a moment I took over
Felt a shiver down your spine
You awoke in late October
In the skin that used to be mine

I walked into your life like a body thief
Claimed your possessions and gave you grief
Stole your time and brought you low
What’s yours is mine now and you better let go

All I need is one lifetime
But there’s someone else in my mind
Who wants forever- who wants it all
Who wouldn’t take a gift like that?

Now I’m feeding your obsession
This is no way to behave
In a frenzy of attention
Who is master and who is the slave?

I walked into your life like a body thief
Claimed your possession and gave you grief
Stole your time and brought you low
What’s yours is mine now and you better let go
You better let go, you better let go
