I'm onto you

before the night is through

I'm going to steal this diamond

hot rock to you



I just need to know 

I'm not the one you wanted

how am I to know what you want me to feel?

not the thing you keep

counterfeit or real?



It's a caper theme. 

there's a getaway car

A diamond to steal, 

a plan that might go wrong

If this is a set up. 

please let me know

I can't risk my life for a gilded stone

(I thought all along this was everything

Try not to look to hard to find that it's not real

I knew all along you weren't everything

Then in the darkest hour I watched you disappear)



I'm not the one you wanted

how am I to know what you want me to feel?

not the thing you keep

I'm onto you



It's a crafty scene, 

full of power and greed

You tell me not to steal, 

yet you still want a thief

You write out the plans. 

I carry out the act

But then I lose it all if I can't bring it back

(How was I to know this rock was so fragile

It cracked in my hands while I was holding on

An uncut stone is flawed and beautiful

Don't try to size me down to fit your tiny hands)



I'm not the girl you wanted

how am I to know what you want me to feel?

not the one you keep

counterfeit or real?



It's not real

You don't need to tell me that it's not real

You don't need to tell me



How am I to know

I'm not the one you wanted, 

I'm not the one you keep



I'm onto you

before this night is through

I'm going to steal my heart back

and find a love that's true

hot rock to you
