Heavy Hangs the Albatross - Alesana

I’ve made up my mind and I will be leaving

Leaving this cruel, dark world for the soulless to share

But first…

Women will shriek and watch their husbands bleed

Child will cry and watch their mothers die

Because tonight…

Tonight we all go to hell!

Why?

I have to let go of what happened to my love

I am taking out on everyone else all the problems I’ve brought on myself

When I made your heart melt

My belle, we soon will meet again

There’s nothing left for me to lose except confusion

I’m finished trying to tell myself this will go away

There’s no one left to talk me down

My feet are slipping…

One day I hope my name doesn’t bring back memories

Of the day that I left her

Goodbye, so long

My heart belongs to the one I am chasing after

For better, or even for worse, remember me forever…

Now the only question left is how to take you all down with me

The coroner will have his hands full tonight

That is if he is not among the dead

Dead will choke the streets with such vulgarity that grown men will weep

And then you will find the end is drawing night

The dizziness stuns me, would someone please distract me?

Can I really get through this?

Can I really betray myself?

There’s sweat on my hands and a knife at my throat

And as the blade bites my skin Annabel appears…
