the acolyte
Singer:alesana
dead and lost with tired faces
antiquated passion laid to rest
no smiles for the memories we have
rotting with the corpses of our past
here we stand left in the dark! kick back!
here we are screaming for help! strike back!
do you think that we have a fighting chance?
shall we dance on the wings of hope and together fly through the sky?
we are not living for this! i will take back what is ours!
scream it like you mean it!
no time to rest for sleep beckons the weak
please understand and listen
i don't think i am ready for goodbyes
if we try to finish what we began
i don't think i can bring you back
so kiss me before you go and whisper three sweet words
there must be something that i missed
i wish i could think outside of the box now
no stone will be left unturned
with god as my witness i will find a way
to beat the wheels of time
i wake up beside you and we smile
scream it like you mean it!
no time to rest for sleep beckons the weak
please understand and listen
i don't think i am ready for goodbyes
if we try to finish what we began
i don't think i can bring you back
so kiss me before you go and whisper three sweet words
rearrange the stars above
open your eyes and gaze the skies above a world that we have made
yet i still remain in this cursed place
this must be hell! i will escape!
till there's nothing left but a hole in the sky
please understand and listen
i don't think i am ready for goodbyes
if we try to finish what we began
i don't think i can bring you back
so kiss me before you go and whisper three sweet words
rearrange the stars above
