ALESANA

- The Thespian Lyrics

Baby, why are you doing this to me?
Sweetheart, are those your eyes
Staring straight back at me?
Angel, I see your smile everywhere
Darling, stop

Night falls and I'm running in circles
I'm being chased by my imagination

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine
Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine
No one deserves to live like this

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine
Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine
No one deserves to live like this

I touch your lips and stare in your eyes
You smile and it makes me fly
You are the reason my heart beats
Tonight, it's just you and me

Night as dark as my thoughts
Sets the scene for my return
Lightning nips at my heels
As I race home

Wearily I stagger
Towards the song of her pale voice
Demons jeer my attempt
To be free

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine
Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine
No one deserves to live like this

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine
Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine
No one deserves to live like this

I touch your lips and stare in your eyes
You smile and it makes me fly
You are the reason my heart beats
Tonight, its just you and me

Windows cast her gentle reflection
Her somber silhouette dances for me

Look at you, you miserable fool
Get off your knees, your prayers fall upon deaf ears
God's turned his back on you, heaven's gates are shut
And now you're knocking on the devils door

I've been expecting you for some time, sir
Allow me to introduce myself
I'm the one who pulls on all the strings, son
You're lucky I don't kill you where you stand

This cant be real
Tonight I raise my glass
There's nothing left
For I know it's time to move on

All hope has failed
My patience will not last
I've lost my soul
Tomorrow, I will be gone

The night sky feels as though it has never been darker
With the fleeting hope of vengeance compelling me
I will attempt to recollect myself and resume my chase
But what is it that I am chasing, am I really chasing anything at all?
Or am I simply drowning myself in revenge to avoid the horrifying truth?

I've lost the only thing that made me feel truly alive
Are my hands responsible, are his, who was he?
Who was the madman that stood before me tonight?
I swear I've seen his face before
I know I've seen his face before
