Lyrics
I can tell who you've kissed
by the stain on their teeth
and the hitch in their breath
Then you turn up the dial
and they all but disappear
for a while
We used to run in the same social circles
But I've been telling everyone what you are
Now no one is taking your excuses,
you used up your goodwill
when you drove your hooks into your marks
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
Year stealer
I'm counting down your days
Rebreather
I know you'll never change your ways
I'm counting on it
Now you've changed up your style
To run with a younger crowd
who don't recognize they're in your thrall
They peacock the nostalgic appeal
of era they never lived
when danger was real
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
Year stealer
I'm counting down your days
Rebreather
I know you'll never change your ways
I'm counting on it
An entire generation of my family line
toiled for your benefit and yet you took their lives
My parents aunts and uncles narrowly escaped
but you planted a seed in them
to reap at a later date
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
I can never hope to be as immortal as you are
The closest I can get is to get far away from you
Year stealer
I'm counting down your days
Rebreather
I know you'll never change your ways
I'm counting on it
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
It's you or me even though
I am no worthy adversary
Year stealer
I'm counting down your days
Rebreather
I know you'll never change your ways
I'm counting on it
