Alesana - Tilting The Hourglass

You take my breath away...
But I'll never taste your lips
As fate keeps me locked away
I must close my eyes to see your face


Emptiness has darkened my eyes
As I hopelessly beg for my life to end
... tell me why...
My iron eyes tell the tale
Heroes always pay in their blood
I can be only this

I see the fear growing in their lost eyes
My purpose is so clear... I am the ax
I am the ax and this is why I must not fear the end
And when I'm gone will you forget me?
Pen wears it's steady course across the page
Resigned to it's designs to take the hive

Emptiness has darkened my eyes
As I hopelessly beg for my life to end
... tell me why...
I wish I could make you see, I wish I could make you see through the pain
Through the end, I wish I could make you see the greater purpose that I have to serve...
No one else will fight... no-one else will fight... so I must
My iron eyes tell the tale
Heroes always pay in their blood
I can be only this

I see the fear growing in there...

left your eyes
your tongue fell still
your treason is silence

Alesana - The Third Temptation Of Paris

The horizon, now as dark as the crimes that brought them here,
Is filled with my impending dread
My foolish actions will cost so many good men
Achilles has come...


A thousand sails approaching
Sent here in her name to reclaim the one I stole
And destroy the walls of Troy

Desire leaves me numb to all the pain surrounding me
Storms will arise to condemn me
I will not die before her eyes...
It ends tonight

Tragically I now must accept the penance I have earned
She is cursed and tonight we die
In the dawn of this, my end, I hold my sword true
I must let her go...

A thousand sails approaching
Sent here in her name to reclaim the one I stole
And destroy the walls of Troy

Desire leaves me numb to all the pain surrounding me
Storms will arise to condemn me
I will not die before her eyes...
It ends tonight

It ends tonight, I am alone
Pain fills her eyes, I am alone

I must save my honor, I cannot let them win, the blood of many spills
Sacred and profane is our love in death...

Alesana - The Last Three Letters

Dearest love,
I hope this message finds you well
As these endless thoughts drip from my soul
Every single word secretly paints a fairytale
Of when we will melt into one...

Eyes forfeit sight to the pain
Cold scalpel's steel whispers tear at my very core
As I cling to my memories of you
I am so scared... So scared... I need you with me

Were the last words that I wrote for you enough to tell you
That in my death the light that shone through my painful darkness
Was a blinding vision of your eternal smile?

It's me again,
Is it me or am I wrong to be concerned?
Will the beauty of your pen ever cross my eyes again?
Was this all a lie? Why?

Were the last words that I wrote for you enough to tell you
That in my death the light that shone through my painful darkness
Was a blinding vision of your eternal smile?

Make it stop, make this pounding in my head stop
Fill my lungs with air, give me one more day to make her dreams come true
She understands right? that I'm not coming back...
She understands right? that I'm not coming back...
Make it stop, make the pounding stop
I'm not coming back, I'm not coming back, I'm not coming back...
I don't know what happened... Who would have thought my life would end up like this?
I never even got the chance to see her face, or to touch her hair... And now it's too late.
I didn't mean to hurt her, not hurt her like this... I can't feel my legs
I can't feel my legs and I can't even cry... How could somebody die like this?
Who would have though my life would end up like this...

If my words ever reach you I'll assume you don't care
Never knew that silence could cut so deep or that you could twist the blade
Now I curse all of your beautiful lies...
I love you and goodbye...

Were the last words that I wrote for you enough to tell you
That in my death the light that shone through my painful darkness
Was a blinding vision of your eternal smile?

Cold scalpel's steel whispers tear at my very core
As I cling to my memories of you...

Alesana - Sweetheart, You Are Sadly Mistaken

Mark my words this night is far from it's end
Please spare me your threats and your useless remarks
Go ahead, I dare you!
Take one step closer to this gap baby! I'll show you what I mean!
I can't let fear get the best of me right now
Keep smiling and soon you will pay!


Close your eyes and let your mind escape into a world of dreams
I won't wake you
Close your eyes and keep them shut
The next part isn't going to be a very pretty sight
Forget about tonight, tomorrow will be here so soon
And we'll be busy singing, "The wicked witch is dead!"
Once upon a time seems so like a fairy tale, I guess
For us it's true

Who's laughing now?
Blood pours from her dry mouth as she begs for mercy
Oh, how she screams!
If you think you'll win my forgiveness
Awww, sweetheart, you're sadly mistaken!
You shouldn't have brought us! You shouldn't have hurt us!
You have not one clue what you've started but trust me
You'll know when I'm finished!
(Its time, baby!)

Close your eyes and let your mind escape into a world of dreams
I won't wake you
Close your eyes and keep them shut
The next part isn't going to be a very pretty sight
Forget about tonight, tomorrow will be here so soon
And we'll be busy singing, "The wicked witch is dead!"
Once upon a time seems so like a fairy tale, I guess
For us it's true

You'd better run faster than that
I know you're feeling scared but so am I
Don't you dare turn around... Hold on as tight as you can!
I know that you're afraid but so am I
There's no time for tears... run till you can't feel your legs!

Close your eyes...
Forget about tonight, tomorrow will be here so soon
And we'll be busy singing, "The wicked witch is dead!"
Once upon a time seems so like a fairy tale, I guess
For us it's true

Look who's laughing now!
Blood pours from her dry mouth as she begs for mercy
If you think you'll win my forgiveness
Awww. sweetheart, you're sadly mistaken!
(It's time, baby!)

Alesana - Red And Dying Evening

You've taken the last of me
The god's of your innocence shall not protect you from the hate of my wrath
You've taken the last of me... blame the end on yourself
You deserve each tear that falls
Scratch out your eyes


The blood will drown in red and I will leave you for dead
A lovely evening draped in regret
The shadow of justice now engulfs you
As cold hands reap the pain they've sewn
You've taken the last of me
Blame the end on yourself
You deserve each tear that falls
Scratch out your eyes

The blood will drown in red and I will leave you for dead
A lovely evening draped in regret
Forever gone
The taste of your death replaced the smell of your breath
A lovely evening draped in regret

Suffocate your will to live with my pain
You were so easily seduced by greed
You could never feel my calloused hands closing around your throat
Taste your loss
Wake into the nightmare that has become our love
May your screams never cease
You've taken the last of me

Alesana - Pathetic, Ordinary

She haunts me in dreams
I see her silhouette dance across landscapes of golden
Light and autumn
... in my dreams...


Her soft eyes see through my tortured soul
Vanishing any hope for fantasy
The thing I'd give, to prove myself to her, to make her see...

Jaded eyes awake as her selfish words rain from such placid lips
Still I kiss her silken flesh

Frigid air leaves me breathless
Foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
I confess... I scare myself
Through the howling wind, on my knees, I cry
... listen to me...

I'm broken by her silence to a love unseen
Blood soaked feathers rained down
My wingless angel so broken falls gracefully from the sky
To waiting arms... to waiting arms...

Frigid air leaves me breathless
Foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
I confess... I scare myself
Through the howling wind, on my knees, I cry Frigid air leaves me breathless
Foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
I confess... I scare myself
... listen to me...

Such foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
Jaded eyes wake to the sounds of my voice as I scream to her
In dreams I've seen her silhouette dance across golden light
And autumn... in my dreams...

Alesana - Obsessions Is Such An Ugly Word

I toss and turn and lie awake... it torments me, I must know why
It just seems too easy... what is beyond that door?
As I take a step back I wonder could I go on and turn the key?

Look away! Turn away!
I should remember nothing is what it seems
For once in my life I will resist... temptation has
Come alive again!
When all is said and done I may not be able to move on
If I don't know what lies beyond
Desire is now the one in control
Am I strong enough to not ever know what I'd find?
Should I press on?

I can almost hear anguished cries as they suffer
Welcome to the bodies!
I should run...
I should run but I just can't see to move

Look away! Turn away!
I should remember nothing is what it seems
For once in my life I will resist... temptation has
Come alive again!
When all is said and done I may not be able to move on
If I don't know what lies beyond
Desire is now the one in control
Am I strong enough to not ever know just what I'd find?
What sinful trance awaits me as the key turns?

Now it is done... the key has been turned
All that is left is my embrace
Her trembling is driving me wild!
Her shrieks are so intoxicating!
Eyes filled with tears will strain to see
Welcome home! I am your prison!

Alesana - Not A Single Word About This

I'd push you away but you are the only thing I know

I can't help believing in you... the idea of beauty leaves me enslaved
Say you'll stay for tonight and I promise you this will be the last

I'd push you away but you are the only thing I know
At your feet I now lay for you are the only thing I know


I stare blindly into my reflection
A piece of me lost... I am terrified that I cannot breathe without you
I am nothing in my eyes if not lost
I can't see past your eyes, without them I would die
Shackles cut my wrists as I fight the chains
None can hold me

I'd push you away but you are the only thing I know
At your feet I now lay for you are the only thing I know

In a room where I once told you everything, I am alone
Once beholden to nothing and no one
How is it that I am slave to these eyes which glisten with untold secrets
That I crave so wildly to understand?
I must steel my heart to your warm gaze
I'll claw out my eyes and see you no more
Its because of you I sometimes wish that I would die
Sometimes I wish I would die leaving you behind
Enraptured by my ignorance, I now deserve sympathy

Alesana - Nero's Decay

Our empire has fallen
The columns came crashing down
Faster that children could outrun the shadows
Drunk with hysteria the survivors are running for their lives
As precious dreams erupt before their very eyes


Tonight, it's over...at long last we will fall
Ruins will fight in our stead

My flesh is burning from the embers
But still the brilliant tale of our utopia survives
Tonight her beautiful exterior may crash and burn to ash
But the fight for her honor will rage on
I hope I never see the end
I hope I never have to live without her comfort
But for now she dies... oh Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone...

Wind chokes on the ashes as acrid smoke strangles the sun
Their jealous arrows ran, hollow drums pound at the gates
Breaking the din of screams
Our feeble offerings to forgotten Gods are left to rot in temples of their lust
As they lay forth their plans to destroy our pride, our home

Tonight, it's over...at long last we will fall
Ruins will fight in our stead

My flesh is burning from the embers
But still the brilliant tale of our utopia survives
Tonight her beautiful exterior may crash and burn to ash
But the fight for her honor will rage on
I hope I never see the end
I hope I never have to live without her comfort
But for now she dies... oh Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone...
...beg the flames for our mercy...
These aged walls have seen too much
To forget the past in the face of this final trial
Watch her crumble so true as mayhem cuts her down
Let them have our treasure, her voice lives on
Let them take our city for her splendor lives on

...at long last we will fall...

Alesana - Goodbye, Goodnight, For Good

Help me to sleep...

Jealousy rears it's ugly head
I won't forget the things you said before you turned your back
Goodbye, goodnight, for good...remember my face when you feel the pain
Say goodbye...


Now I'll fight with my eyes closed for the things I've let go
Sweet breath escapes...choke on the lies that were your last goodbye
Hear my voice as you sleep...
Sleep tight, goodnight...choke on the lies that were your last goodbye

Goodbye helps me to sleep without your memories
And my shattered dreams collect dust on what used to be a lie
It haunts me no more and now you're gone, you've left me alone
I wasn't wrong to feel this way inside so goodbye, goodnight, for good

Now I'll fight with my eyes closed for the things I've let go
Sweet breath escapes...choke on the lies that were your last goodbye
Hear my voice as you sleep...
Sleep tight, goodnight...choke on the lies that were your last...

I find pleasure in the taste of your decay
I anxiously watch you fade away

I can't explain what's happening inside of me
I refuse to fight you anymore
All I know is I have to make sure...make sure you never wake up again

Soft flesh gives way to trembling hand...

Beautiful eyes are sewn shut
Searing thread suffocates the light

Alesana - Endings Without Stories

This time I die

Our love ruined by your malignance
Broken shards of feelings are now just tainted memories left
Beautiful dreams that I cherished now are so disgusting as I strangle the light from you

I watched the smile fading from your face
You bled till there was nothing in your veins
Blood stains my hands so I won't forget you
Its all over now so dry your eyes
Never forget you, be afraid to die
Blood stains my hands so I won't forget you

Tears fall as your screams of anguish rage throughout the heavens
Amidst the penance you must pay
Caress this bullet as eyes close to the painful memories you left
Consume the rest of me
My vision of you has now turned to dust, your porcelain smile gone

I watched the smile fading from your face
You bled till there was nothing in your veins
Blood stains my hands so I won't forget you
Its all over now so dry your eyes... never forget you, be afraid to die
Blood stains my hands so I won't forget you

You let me go
You let me go too soon
I love you are meaningless words that slip away as I slit your throat
And I will slit your throat

Alesana - Daggers Speak Louder Than Words

Eyes open to splattered blood
Cold tile mocks me as I arise to find the knife is still in my back
Shifting thoughts now slow with venom
Take me as I stagger...is this all we were worth?
I've lost you for good without regret
Your once gentle words are bleeding from my eyes
Screams of terror now fill my every breath
I know you'll rue the day you ever met me
I'll lay you down to sleep when sorrow will bury the blade hilt deep


You know I would have died for you
Now I'm forced to choose between a life of revenge or regret
As I thirst for vengeance, my heart struggles to come to grips
Why would you leave me to die, turn, and walk away?

Alone, you stood so still as you watched me break
Did it now kill you too? what has led you to the dagger my friend?

You know I would have died for you
Now I'm forced to choose between a life of revenge or regret
As I thirst for vengeance, my heart struggles to come to grips
Why would you leave me to die, turn, and walk away?

My revenge is made so clear midst cold tears left with the betrayed
I'll see that you never forget this
I will hunt you down like a dog
Lies could never disguise what I saw behind me in you
Remembering times we have shared...my friend for life is gone
We'll let the embers serve as the only memory of last days, so long ago

Why would you leave me to die, turn, and walk away?
Why would you leave me to die after you had buried the dagger hilt deep?

...you're dead to me...
I would have died for you
Now I'm forced to choose between a life of revenge or regret
As I thirst for vengeance, my heart struggles to come to grips
Why would you leave me to die, turn, and walk away?
...you're dead to me...

Alesana - Better Luck Next Time, Prince Charming

Shadows dance around me as I race alone
I will never rest until she's in my arms
So close and yet so far away...
A simple kiss to bring her back,
To make this story end


Not all knights in shining armor can make your dreams come true
He's not quite as charming as he may seem
Come and claim your queen!

The wild beasts are ravenous, they will soon devour you
Dark howls echo bitter cries but they fall upon deaf ears

Not all knights in shining armor can make your dreams come true
He's not quite as charming as he may seem
Come and claim your queen!

You're pathetic! What good do you do?!?
She had faith in me, I was her only escape
A most deep and subtle poison welcomes her unblinking eyes to eternal sleep
If I had shown, she would be mine
Who is the fairest of all? Tell me again! Tell me again! You know its me!
A simple kiss to bring her back, to make this story end

Alesana - Best Ex-Friend

Pretty words roll off of your tongue
Come out of your mouth heard by everyone
So convincing I believed it
For so long I still can't figure out
Why many wont last, why many wont last
With the blink of your eye it's all gone away
... please give me one more stay, I guess that's why I feel I'm loosing again...


Miles we've walked the moons we've seen
Leave it all behind and start a new beginning.
I won't keep you searching when there's nothing left to find

[Chorus:]
'cause I'm not ready for this life... ready for this life
But I'm ready for tonight, I'm still wondering why
... days convincing me once we'd never be strong, this is goodbye...

Tears fall down like the mourning rain
A taste of strain does
Something's getting compromised
Fall in or fallen the damage is done
And there's no convincing with these words you've spoken

(Repeat Chorus)

Pretty words roll off of your tongue
Come out of your mouth heard by everyone
So convincing I believed it for so long
Still I can't figure out when you were wrong
... everything you ever said would ever make this right or guilty
Now you say you wonder why you're my best ex-friend...

Pretty words roll off of your tongue
Come out of your mouth heard by everyone
So convincing I believed it for so long
Still I can't figure out why
... everything you ever said would ever make this right or guilty
Now you say you wonder why you're my best ex-friend...

(Repeat Chorus)

'cause I'm not ready for this life
But I'm ready for tonight, I'm still wondering why
... days convincing me once we'd never be strong, this is goodbye...
Days convince...

Alesana - Beautiful In Blue

Silence screams, "you're just so beautiful in blue"
Breathless stares escape your undying eyes
Are you blind to my sorrow and sympathy?
A piece of me will die with your last breath...
This will all be over soon for you are so lost inside
Glazed eyes long for the waves' embrace
Drawn to an end so near...

Far away are days when you smiled just to hear my voice
Why are you trying to run away?
My love, I can't find the words to tell you...

Drown all of your fantasies with your final broken promise
Silent angel crashes through sky, having lost sight of the stars

Regail me with your tales of lonely, bittersweet loss
Giving up comes to easy when hope is gone
I'll walk away so you can choke on your dying breath
But if you side against me, to hell with you...

Far away are days when you smiled just to hear my voice
Why are you trying to run away?
My love, I can't find the words to tell you...

The fear has stolen her heart as she wakes from her dream
Treacherous ink finds her lungs, seizing her screams
Numb hands now reach too late to take back the light

Far away are days when you smiled just to hear my voice
Why are you trying to run away?
My love, I can't find the words to tell you...

Far away are days when you smiled...
Seas cry out butchering this tragic soul without hope
Their frailty is broken and now fades into the blue...
