Steal Tomorrow Lyrics

Well I give you all my rain
I give you all my sweet horizons
And another sense of _____

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

Hell I'm guilty of the crime
But like a bird above the Alcatraz
I'm whiter than your gown

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

I will dance and sway
While you dream away
Bring your curtain down
Then I'll burn this town
It's just a way to steal tomorrow

Well I tell you that I'm down
And now believin' by the tickets
Your messiah is in town

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

While we're riding on our plane
Well I have bought a special backpack
Just to run away from shame

I'll have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

I will dance and sway
While you dream away
Bring your curtain down
Then I'll burn this town
It's just a way to steal tomorrow

Hell I'm guilty of the crime
But like a bird above the Alcatraz
I'm whiter than your gown

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It should be in the first verse "I will give you all my sweet horizons and another son to blame". And later on in the song it should be "Well I tell you that I'm down, I will even buy the tickets"
