He bends and he breaks
If you give they will take away
His passion, his pain, his grace.
He exhales,
A thousand black flowers explode
into butterflies as they're away
Rip them out, take them,
Burn the coals as they crush and
Leave nothing
that resembles the soul of a man
See him numb, see him crushed
See him numb, See him crushed
Rip them out, take them
Burn coals as they crush and
Leave nothing
that resembles the soul of a man
Leave him numb. leave him crushed
Leave him numb, leave him crushed
Took the fire inside
One too many times
He's burning over and out now,
He fails
Up against the raging tides,
No more fights
Everything you ever wanted to see,
See it in his eyes
One more time, one more time
Climb down to test the waters,
My hands feel like they're rusting away yea, away yea.
So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter
I'll stay here as long as you let me,
Decisions been made obvious so I will return
Where I started I'll stay there
Unfinished
I'll wither away
Rip them out, take them,
Burn the coals as they crush and
Leave nothing
that resembles the soul of a man
See him numb, See him crushed
See him numb, See him crushed
Rip them out, take them
Burn the coals as they crush and
Leave nothing
That resembles a soul of a man
Leave him numb, Leave him crushed
Leave him numb, Leave him crushed

Review about The Theft Song's meaning | Reviewer: BlUe_AcE11 | 9/2/09
This song is awesome; Atreyu is definitely one of my favorite bands. This song is about lead singer Alex Varkatzas freedom when he was an alcoholic, it is sad yet very meaningful and completely badass!
this is definatally my favorite band of all time.
Every song they sing is amazing. I listened to Ex's and Oh's and Becoming the Bull like thirty times every day, back when they were my favorite songs. I hope to go to an Atreyu concert some time with my friends, it would be amazing!!
This song literally is the most amazing thing ive ever heard. Bradon Saller's voice is godly. I wish i could be that guy because of this song. If you want the full extent of this man's skill. you need this song
wow | Reviewer: someone | 1/1/09
I love this song. Its so sad, to me its about a child taken into the adult world too early and is constantly pushed so much that he has no escape until he is old and worn out, with no hope of returning to his past, because his childhood was stolen.
Atreyu = <3 | Reviewer: Mickey | 7/18/08
I love atreyu! They are by far my favorite band of all times! This song just takes my breath away here u have this metal band with all these hardcore songs and then they have this one song that is so soft and toned way down from their normal and they totally rocked it! Only the best are able to do such a thing! And Atreyu is beyond the best!!

This song has a great deal of meaning in it as do all of their songs but with this songs meaning they did perform it well it wouldnt sound right if they made it any harder than they did so A+ to Atreyu You Guys Rock!!
they rocked ever since | Reviewer: Pj(huge fan of this band) | 11/22/07
since they first came out in the late ninetys ive loved atreyu,especially theyre hardcore stuff and seeing them go from "suicide notes and butterfly kisses" and "the curse"and"a deathgrip on yesterday"(which were all great albums).Seeing this much of a melodic difference makes me love the band even more
ROCK ON!!!!
mmmmm. | Reviewer: libby | 9/17/07

"He exhales,
A thousand black flowers explode
into butterflies as they're away"
