Straight Down The Line - Sea Power

Straight down the line with love

Straight down the line with hate

I never felt so good

I never felt so great

It all looks so familiar

It’s all there if you’re willing to

Cross the military ground

I am lost but I’ll be found

Sunshine, gunfire, lemonade

I won’t be getting hurt today

Fifteen miles without a break

Just for one more month of grace

I have said romance is dead

Created destruction in my head

But I did not know

It’s a soldier soaked in blood

But I never felt so good

Straight down the line with love

Straight down the line with hate

I never felt so good today

I never felt so great

He made me a meal out of the scraps

Then he talked to a photograph

He would rather take your pain

Than see you get hurt this way

Cos you can’t make it alone

You can’t make it alone

And you can never know

You can never know

Don’t go any further

Don’t go any further

I never knew that it could feel so good

I never knew that it could feel so good

I never knew that it could feel so good

I never knew that it could feel so good

Cos you do not know

It’s a soldier soaked in blood

But you never feel so good

Straight down the line with love

Straight down the line with hate

I never felt so good

I never felt so great

Straight down the line, straight down the field

Straight down the line, nothing is real

Imploding, combusting

Better yet, the scent of death

Cos you can’t make it alone

You can’t make it alone
