More Alesana!
@ 12:14 PM
Congratulations, I Hate You--Alesana
no one ever said that life was fair and I'm not saying that it should be
so knowing that you are what you want to be and I'm not comes as no surprise
but don't expect me to be happy for you
and don't smile at me and tell me things will work out for me too
I don't want your pity...I hate your pity
taste your vanity and its sweet bitterness
as you hide behind your veil of my stolen hopes and lost dreams
...you took them all...
I watched you steal my thoughts and had to see you smile
as you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy
swallow your pride.
beg me to make this easier and listen to my hopeless cries
suffer alone in emptiness
I lust to see you swallowed by the mess that you left in your wake
disgust lies deep within your empty gaze...
beg me to make this easier and listen as my hopeless cries
send stares into your meaningless eyes
my envy can't describe how I loathe you for having all the stars
leaving my eyes to marvel the sky knowing it should be mine
yet it's you I see wasting the dream that only I deserve
I'll tear off your face to see your smile.
as you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy
swallow your pride.
beg me to make this easier and listen as my hopeless cries
send stares into your meaningless eyes

(Spoken)
Tis the oldest story in the book
He desires the one thing he can not have.
My darling queen, I lay myself at your feet
And I shall stay the hands of fate
Wind cries out, heavens boil above voicing discontent to my sins
I have found the way to trick the ferryman
I have deceived the ancient Gods
Cold flesh lends to me its secrets
(Each day brings me closer to you)
for a price too high
(My tragic victory)
I shudder at what I have done
Darling queen I lay at your feet...
Chills take me as she wakes, throat gasps tainted breath
I've reclaimed you my stolen bride
Can your soul forgive my crimes of passion?
I would not close the casket; I'm so consumed by your pain
Faint screams echo through the night...
Cold flesh lends to me its secrets
(Each day brings me closer to you)
for a price too high
(My tragic victory)
I shudder at what I have done
The pains of death can no longer haunt you
(As the dawning sky brings forth one forsaken thought)
As the dawning sky brings forth one
(Forsaken thought)
Death can not win for I now dwell in the palace of decay
(And I shall stay)
The hands of fate
Night descends, sinews twitch
My pale queen finally stands to taste silent lips now cursed with her love
Cold flesh lends to me its secrets
(Each day brings me closer to you)
for a price too high
(My tragic victory)
