One Thief to Another



Just a little wire,
some time, some skill,
and a good place to hide.
It's all it takes.
Master one lock,
and no door in the world will be safe.

Now, you're working the same tools,
but remember every job is different.
No two locks are the same.
I don't mean to wax poetic,
but it's almost like
they've got personalities of their own.

It takes finesse, ingenuity,
showmanship, and (most of all)
patience. Never rush.
Every lock was made for opening,
remember that.
It wants you to win.
