STRAIGHT LINE STITCH LYRICS

1. Never See The Day

There's nothing that you can take from me
That you don't have to a certain degree
God help me feel something 'cause I feel nothing

What do you want from me?
I look around, but I can't see
Gave you my life, gave you my soul
I've lost control

Not in a million years could I shed so many tears
I gave you my life, gave you my soul
I've lost control

What do you want from me?
There's nothing left, I'm on empty
Gave you my life, gave you my soul
I've lost control

What can I even say?
When every word seems so cliché?
Gave you my life, gave you my soul
I've lost control

There's nothing you can take from me
There's nothing I can do for you
There's no place I would rather be
There's nothing that could hide the truth

No matter how you try to get inside
I'm through with all your lies
The sky's open wide

This is a new day, I'm coming around
All of the kings are losing their crowns
I always knew that you'd let me down
But I'm wrapped around your finger, I'm wrapped around you

This is a new day, I'm coming around
All of the kings are losing their crowns
I always knew that you'd let me down
But I'm wrapped around your finger, I'm wrapped around you

Never see the day
There's nothing that you can take from me
There's nothing 'cause I feel nothing
Nothing
Nothing
I feel nothing
Nothing
What do you want from me?

2. Promise Me

This is the last day the last day that I sway
No longer will you dictate what I do or say
I've taken a leave of absence I've taken a leave of the senses
& There's nothing in the world that could change this- I can't change this
No regrets
I'm calling on you angels of truth
Tell me that you'll never fall through
Promise me Promise me
Don't crumble like paper mache
Tell me that you'll always fine your way
Promise me Promise me
This is the last day the last day that I sway
No longer will they dictate what I do or say
Not another dying day a part of me that's wasted away
& There's nothing in the world that could change this- you can't change this
No regrets
I'm calling on you angels of truth
Tell me that you'll never fall through
Promise me Promise me
Don't crumble like paper mache
Tell me that you'll always fine your way
Promise me Promise me
Standing on the sidelines where I've been left behind
Right here on the sidelines waiting for the right time
Life goes by
I'm calling on you angels of truth
Tell me that you'll never fall through
Promise me Promise me
Don't crumble like paper mache
Tell me that you'll always fine your way
Promise me Promise me

3. Taste Of Ashes

[feat. Jamey Jasta]

Let them pull the wool over your eyes – no hope for the fallen
Misconceptions of a false paradise – these words are unspoken
The blind leading the blind but I decline – we walk the straight line
The one who holds the truth be divined – death is forever
The writings on the wall now the mighty fall
Divided we cannot stand bury your head into the stand
Killing the fat of the land an albatross across your neck- thorn in your side
Don't be afraid of the dark you're still held up by the stars
The light will carry us over
The dice have been cast & your position must be steadfast- we are the chosen
Let no man pull us under never deter- there is no contrast
You can't always crucify what you don't understand- beware of the vampire
& this time you'll see who has the upper hand- the world is a wasteland
Don't be afraid of the dark you're still held up by the stars
The light will carry us over
When all this time has gone by you'll stop & ask yourself why
The light will carry you over
Open up your eyes / read between the lines
However long the night the dawn will break
However long my eyes are closed I'm wide awake
Stand, stand, stand up & fight
It won't be long before this candle burns again
Don't be afraid of the dark you're still held up by the stars
The light will carry us over
When all this time has gone by you'll stop & ask yourself why
The light will carry you over
However long the night the dawn will break
However long my eyes are closed I'm wide awake
Stand, stand, stand up & fight

4. Eucharist

I heard a voice just yesterday that told me I'm slipping away
I never felt like this before the sky's not blue anymore
But the wind still blows & the story goes
Lend me your wings fallen angel I'd like to fly away from here
I'm coming home
On & on we ride the storm with our blinders on & our faith no more
On & on we dream but it feels so real I can barely breathe
My life has changed don't even remember the game
I never felt like this before the skies are washed ashore
But the wind still blows & the story goes
Lend me your wings fallen angel I'd like to fly away from here
I'm coming home
On & on we ride the storm with our blinders on & our faith no more
On & on we dream but it feels so real I can barely breathe
I'll find my way like the sun finds the day
& the wind still blows I'm- coming home
Lend me your wings fallen angel I'd like to fly away from here
I'm coming home
On & on we ride the storm with our blinders on & our faith no more
On & on we dream but it feels so real I can barely breathe
Tonite I'm not alone the light is all around me
Change is in the air- I'm coming home

5. Black Veil

Show yourself
Show me your face
Show me who you really are
Don't tell me the reason why you hide yourself from me is because you think that we are similar

With blood on your hands you are unclean
With blood on your hands you are unclean

Preying on those who are depraved
But yourself you know you cannot be saved- you cannot be saved!

So many unshed tears to undergo a pain so severe
You try to take me by surprise
I see it right through your eyes
Wicked, malicious, you're blameless and faultless

Forgive you? How can I? I can't even forgive myself
What you, you take, you take from me
What you, you take, you take from me

I know who you are... I see right through you..... the real you
Please give me something to pull myself through this
Can't you see that it's been so long overdue
Say it's for the last time
Never again
Lie and tell me I'm blind
Never again

Why would you do this? You could never explain this
Why would you do this?
Never again

For the last time
Forgive you? How can I?
Forgive you? How can I?
Forgive you? How can I forgive you?

6. Adult Cinema

Now showing for your viewing pleasure
To be insecure but how to endure
Why would you wanna be anything like me
Is this how we choose to live our lives
Feeding off others pain just to survive

Here's your ticket and a front row seat to the Saturday matinee
All the names may have changed but the story's still the same

Don't get up it gets even better
These delusions of grandeur
Why would you wanna be anything so deceived
Is this how we choose to live our lives
Feeding off others pain just to survive

Here's your ticket and a front row seat to the Saturday matinee
All the names may have changed but the story's still the same
As the children laugh and play out loud no ones there at home to work it out
All the names may have changed but the story's still the same whoa

Anything you want of me but it just gets harder
You take me break me hold me choke me, mold and control me
The same words repeating myself
The same energy depleting itself
One day this will all be over and no one will be left to recover
and you will find that I am human

So use to being empty with no one to comfort me
I'll let you see it at my own expense
After all enjoying the pain wouldn't make much sense
Here's your ticket and a front row seat to the Saturday matinee
All the names may have changed but the story's still the same
Look away this is hurting me you'll only end up deserting me
Look away I can't save you I'll only be there to deprave you
Look away, I can't save you look away

7. What You Do To Me

Please heal me, feel me, kill me
It's not easy
Never knew how cruel you are
That no one that can run that far
Better stick around and hold your ground
Under my bleeding heart

So hang on, won't be long
Is this what life is
Something's gone wrong

These days I cannot cope at all
I need some kind of miracle
To shake me from this confusion
It's what you do to me
My heart lies bleeding in your hands
Time stops and turns around again
It doesn't matter what you say
It's what you do to me

You hurt me, desert me, divert me
It's not easy
Never knew that losing you
Could be so hard
But now I'm scarred
And every time I dream
I start to scream
Under the falling stars

So hang on, won't be long
Is this what life is
Something's gone wrong

These days I cannot cope at all
I need some kind of miracle
To shake me from this confusion
It's what you do to me
My heart lies bleeding in your hands
Time stops and turns around again
It doesn't matter what you say
It's what you do to me

It's what you do to me
It's what you do to me

They cut the pieces all around
Always wondered why we fight
Never even made a sound
Never thought I'd see the light

And I'm not falling
I'd rather stand alone

These days I cannot cope at all
I need some kind of miracle
To shake me from this confusion
It's what you do to me
My heart lies bleeding in your hands
Time stops and turns around again
It doesn't matter what you say
It's what you do to me

It's what you do to me
It's what you do to me

It doesn't matter what you say
It's what you do to me

These days I cannot cope at all
I need some kind of miracle
To shake me from this confusion
It's what you do to me

It's what you do to me
It's what you do to me

8. Seneca Tragedy

Temperature is rising no disguising these cries tonight
Spin the wheel this is real doesn't matter if your right
Lost in the shadows outside this room take my last breath
I would die for you
Wake me from this dream where everything is so unclean
Take it all away
The world is crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
I hold on tight
The world keeps crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
Lets make this right tonight
The picture is fading tired of waiting my hearts on ice
Say a prayer you can swear in the end we'll burn the sky
Chemical silence, a violent blue just hold my hand
I would die for you
Wake me from this dream where everything is so unclean
Take it all away
The world is crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
I hold on tight
The world keeps crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
Lets make this right tonight
I'll wait until my heart starts beating again so I can make sense of it all
Don't know where I'm going but I know where I've been try to make sense of it all
The world is crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
Just hold on tight
The world keeps crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
Lets make this right tonight
The world is crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
Just hold on tight
The world keeps crashing down on me with every second that I breathe
Lets make this right tonight

9. The Word Made Flesh

Intensify the pain as I speak these words
So personal to me do I make things ten times worse
Throwing all sense of caution to the wind
The next tragedy will begin where this one ends

With everything that's happening I allow
If I held this all inside I'd be dead by now
Reality dawns and ends the world of make believe

Suffering silently is done I know my day will come
I die every time I say these words that kill something in you
The word made flesh the word is flesh

With everything that's happening I allow
I let this out and it all affects you somehow
Reality dawns and ends the world of make believe

I've only said what I felt to play the hand that I was dealt
So I must stay but my cards are right here on the table
Suffering silently is done I know my day will come

Breaking my bones this friction its burning like a sick addiction
I refuse to place the blame, but whoever you are, go back from where you came

10. Yesterday's Gone

I'd take the next train going anywhere if I knew you where there
I'd swim across the ocean & sail the seven seas just to have you here with me
All I ever asked for & all I ever wanted now has flashed before my eyes
So many broken promises when you run out of time
The morning that you left I felt a pain no one could heal- I wish it wasn't real
& I can still remember all the laughter that we shared- life is so unfair
You lifted me up & fueled my dreams now yesterday's gone
When I breathe I whisper your name in memory cause yesterday's gone
& I know I can move on from that cold December rain straight from my heart
I wish you could see how I've changed
How can I get through another show with out your face in the crowd?
Still feel that chill in the air when the lights go down
Nothing can be said to make this all go away- just take it day by day
Every time I fall behind I think about your smile- & I go another mile
You lifted me up & fueled my dreams now yesterday's gone
When I breathe I whisper your name in memory cause yesterday's gone
& I know I can move on from that cold December rain straight from my heart
I wish you could see how I've changed
The world still turns
What does it mean?
I silence the scream, It feels like I'm falling down
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
You lifted me up & fueled my dreams now yesterday's gone
When I breathe I whisper your name in memory cause yesterday's gone
You opened my eyes & set me free but yesterday's gone
Now the wind whispers your name in memory cause yesterday's gone
& I know I can move on from that cold December rain straight from my heart I wish you could see how I've changed
