LYRICS:
I miss counting the stars
And I miss the way you kiss me
I miss the way you touch me
I miss calling you mine
Baby you know who I am
And there’s nobody I’d rather dance with in the moonlight
I just want to go back

I fear the emptiness will swallow me whole
This is my confession 

I am no hero and I’m not a saint
I can’t save the world 
and I never asked for this
In your eyes I see the questions I don’t have the answers for 
Arise suspicious minds

You told yourself I was pure, certain that I would save you
But if it crosses your mind that I was saving myself
Remind yourself that I’m dangerous!
Maybe I’m not as honest as it seems, a siren dressed in silk
Maybe I’m just selling a lie, a villain in disguise

I fear the emptiness will swallow me whole
This is my confession 

I am no hero and I’m not a saint
I can’t save the world 
and I never asked for this
In your eyes I see the questions I don’t have the answers for 
Arise suspicious minds

I don’t know if I’m praying, I don’t know if I’m begging
But I have to believe that someone, something out there can hear me
I have to know that there is a chance 
I have to believe that I might escape this hell
I fear I’ve lost myself and I don’t know the way back
the way back to what I once was
Am I Fatima? Am I Rusalka?  Or am I just me?  Sweet, innocent Annabel.


Star crossed lovers in strife embracing on a battlefield
Giving in to the fight, changing at the speed of light
Time to move on to another night 
Time to move on to another fight

I fear the emptiness will swallow me whole
This is my confession

LYRICS:
Remember why you’re here

Fall for me
Lay yourself before the demon
Spread your legs, bite your lip, meet his eye
Drooling, engorged, wide eyed, shaking, you’ve got him
Don’t fall for me
Don’t relent invite him to you
Guide his hand, take his breath, consume him
Gasping, lusting, weakened, frozen, you’ve won
If you should peek beneath the veil
Don’t be surprised to find me there

I’m ashamed, a victim of the curse

I think I like the fight
Wrong feels so right, baby
I’m flirting with lunacy
Nothing can stop me and my sinful obsession

Please don’t forget who he is, my ‘Bel.
A monster who enjoys the fear
Never forget what he is, my ‘Bel
A monster who designed the fear

Listen to me, keep your focus
Your one true love waits in anguish

Lick your lips as the sweat drips down
and taste the torture as you crawl, begging for more, yea!

I’m ashamed, a victim of the curse


I think I like the fight
Wrong feels so right, baby
I’m flirting with lunacy
Nothing can stop me and my sinful obsession

Remember why you’re here

I’m ashamed, a victim of the curse

I think I like the fight
Wrong feels so right, baby
I’m flirting with lunacy
Nothing can stop me and my sinful obsession

LYRICS:
Dearest love, I hope this finds you well
I am kidding this is probably hell
Lonely stranger with a brush in hand
Never saw me sneaking up on him
Tonight say goodbye to what you thought you knew 
They’ll blame the blood spilled on you
I’m closing my eyes, one more kiss before I never wake again

Two moves ahead of you
You are a pawn
Castle now but I’m behind your king
As your queen lays bleeding on the board
Accept you have lost the game, misjudged your enemy

Unleash the myth living in your worst fears
I’m trapped!  Don’t wait!

Page abandoned, the stories write themselves
The author lost his way again and he forgot to write the end
Race towards the sun, seeing who comes undone
The villainess, the broken bride, we sit and watch the world’s collide
The story is ending

Would you remember Joan of Arc was her flesh yet unlicked by flame?
Will you remember how the waves crash on the shores of time?
Who would’ve ever known that each choice made sense?
Who could’ve ever known?
Are we not our actions?  
Our lives are poetry, make them sonnets

Unleash the myth living in your worst fears
I’m trapped!  Don’t wait!

Page abandoned, the stories write themselves
The author lost his way again and he forgot to write the end
Race towards the sun, seeing who comes undone
The villainess, the broken bride, we sit and watch the world’s collide
The story is ending

Why do the floorboards creak like a heartbeat
This room is driving me insane
What’s behind the bricks?
Who’s rapping at my chamber door?
Pendulum, why do you torment me?
What am I saying?  Have I lost my mind?

I am her!

No longer Fatima, goddess, light  
I’ve become Rusalka, demon of night!

Two moves ahead of you
You are a pawn
Castle now but I’m behind your king
As your queen lays bleeding on the board
Accept you have lost the game, misjudged your enemy

Don’t wait...

Page abandoned, the stories write themselves
The author lost his way again and he forgot to write the end
Race towards the sun, seeing who comes undone
The villainess, the broken bride, we sit and watch the world’s collide
Page abandoned, time is ending
The story is ending, make them sonnets
We sit and watch the world’s collide

The night that I died I had become Rusalka.  I was no longer me.  I was no longer Annabel.  The beautiful evil coursed through my veins and I saw so clearly what needed to be done.  As you lay, fast asleep, I penned her farewell and kissed your cheek.  The knife felt so light in my hand, so heavy in my stomach.  There is something about this room…

LYRICS:
This is the final act
Please take your seats, this is the moment that you’ve been waiting for
This is gonna be a wild ride! 

Your telltale heart is beating, unstable minds descend
I’m through trying to reach you, I am the emptiness
Our love will nevermore attach your soul to mine
You don’t understand, time is on my side now baby
And time is running out

Do not believe in imitations, we have to crave a masterpiece beneath the ink 
We’re falling for the fiction, there’s more than meets the eye 

The end is dawning
The sun is setting on a silent mourning
Our stars aligning as universes shatter time
I’m resisting reality

I remember when, my love, you could stop time with just a smile 
Save it for tomorrow, my love
I’ll regret those words forever more

I danced with our accuser, murderer from the start
Climbed out of Tartarus for one last night with you
You don't understand we are poetry now, baby
But time is running out

Do not believe in imitations, we have to crave a masterpiece beneath the ink 
We’re falling for the fiction, there’s more than meets the eye 

The end is dawning
The sun is setting on a silent mourning
Our stars aligning as universes shatter time
I’m resisting reality

I remember when, my love, you could stop time with just a smile 
Save it for tomorrow, my love
I’ll regret those words forever more

The end is dawning
The sun is setting on a silent mourning
Our stars aligning as universes shatter time
Have you ever actually seen yourself without a mirror?

I must be dreaming, I drop the knife, turn and see you
You can’t be me
I can’t be you

Oh my God!  Where am I?
Let me go!  Let me go!
Save me from this nightmare!
Annabel?!  I can not be lying there!

My ‘Bel, you know you’re the cause of this?!
If you had not left me then he would not have lost his mind
If you’re seeking forgiveness you have come to the wrong place

The compass spins
What's that feeling in your stomach 
First a flutter now a shudder
Creeping up your spine and now you know that something's not right
Something lurking something peering inching closer inching closer
Trying not to think about it trying not to think about it
It's here!

Foregrounds burst to nothing
As symmetry explodes
The Artist screams and beauty dies, his canvas rends
While his easel burns
He's lost everything in but one cruel instant existence swept away 
Did man even notice as he was erased?

ALESANA - Catharsis

[Verse]
Tick tock wrist watch never stops
Retro candy kissed lock pops
Making sense is a lost art
See you baby at the very start

[Chorus]
Tick tock tick tock round we go
Time’s a thief but it’s all we know
Tick tock tick tock hold the Vox
Spin me faster faster like a sly fox

[Verse 2]
Neon lights they hum and sway
Burning brighter than the day
Words are shadows they just play
Every glance a ricochet

[Prechorus]
Truth is tangled
Hearts rewind
Tell me what you hope to find

[Chorus]
Tick tock tick tock round we go
Time’s a thief but it’s all we know
Tick tock tick tock hold the Vox
Spin me faster faster like a sly fox

[Bridge]
Locked in a loop
Are we free
Dancing on loops of memory
Tick and tock
You and me
Is this forever or fantasy

Alesana - A Gilded Masquerade

Lyrics:

The sky is burning red
With blood
With the blood everything we’ve dreamed of
Was this all the fault of ignorance
While we stand here and watch our world collapse
When will we realize
It’s one for all
Not all for one
For they’ve spoken about our pain
Bloody hands and a rusty blade
Should we’ve read this between the lines
Into ashes our souls will finally go
It’s all a game
But even now
I feel so afraid
I know it hurts
So I’ll take the time to dry your eyes
Take my hand, until the end
Their golden walls are falling down
What will you do when they have taken everything that you’ve callen so meaningful
While the blood of the martyrs are flowing down
When they all have died in vain?
But it’s not the right of them to say
It’s all a game
But even now
I feel so afraid
I know it hurts
So I’ll take the time to dry your eyes
Take my hand, until the end
Take my hand, until the end
Oh the ashes are burning into the air
With their palaces crumbling unto the ground
This is not the time to rest
But only now what is right be wrong
Oh, the sirens will ring as they burn in hell
But every tick of the clock is another life
Oh it’s all in our hands what is yet to come
Here is now but will we come to act
