Pathetic, Ordinary
Alesana
On Frail Wings Of Vanity And Wax (2006)

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
...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...
