Black Veil Lyrics by Straight Line Stitch

When Skies Wash Ashore

2008

Show yourself, show me your face
Show me who you really are
Don't tell me the reason why you hide 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 suprise, I see it right through your eyes
Wicked malicious, are 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 over) Say it's for the last time, and 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!?
