The Thread
by The Devil Wears Prada

Album: The Act

Intro: Mike Hranica
Ten thousand tons
Somehow gaining mass

Verse 1: Mike Hranica
It senses the symptoms
Of a life's thread rusting out
It features the dangers
With a mind for pure corrosion

Refrain: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica
You won't say a word
Why won't you look my way
As we gaze through the window
The ash storm begins to rain

Pre-Chorus: Mike Hranica
Iron oxide tells the difference
Patterning what this used to be

Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica
I've got some feelings
Some feelings as of late
Meanwhile the ceiling
Is what I can't shake
What if we don't change?
What if we stay the same?
Then you're the ceiling
The ceiling that I can't shake

Verse 2: Mike Hranica
You can see my hands
Reaching out, grasping at the thread
Hear her laughter reverberate
Through the lowest rings of hell

Pre-Chorus: Mike Hranica
I'll be gone
Once you're through with me
I'll be gone
Once you're through with me

Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica
I've got some feelings
Some feelings as of late
Meanwhile the ceiling
Is what I can't shake
What if we don't change?
What if we stay the same?
Then you're the ceiling
The ceiling that I can't shake

Post-Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica
The ceiling that I can't shake
The ceiling that I can't shake
Shake

Bridge: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica
You won't say a word
Why won't you look my way?
As we gaze through the window
The ash storm begins to rain
You won't say a word
Why won't you look my way?
As we taste the shattered glass
The ash storm begins to rain

Refrain: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica
After all is said and done
Unable to tolerate
You can watch me go under
Brought down by the weight
After all is said and done
Unable to tolerate
You can watch me disappear
Brought down by the weight

Outro: Mike Hranica
You should speak up
You should speak up
Let me feel your voice
Let me feel your voice
