paroles de chanson Curse of the Virgin Canvas - Alesana

I am here to tell you a story
A story that will torture your thoughts by day and poison your dreams by night
And though I will do my best, there are no words that can be written
Nor brush strokes laid on canvas, that can describe
The stark and utter horror of the night that Annabel died
(The emptiness will haunt you)

This is a nightmare, is my Annabel really gone?
(My eyes are stung by daylight, I find it hard to breathe)
Her body teases me as the sun reveals the dawn
(The smell of blood still crawls, I kiss you softly goodbye)

Baby, lay in my arms and cuddle me close
Soon this will be just an awful memory...
(Will I ever be able to sleep again?)

My angel, lie to me and tell me I'm dreaming
(Please, wake me up, please, wake me)
A girl like you will always be such a tragic part of me
(Oh, ecstasy, you torture me)

I watch the blood drip from the corners of your mouth
(Your icy flesh is lying, your pallid skin still glows)
I'm starting to believe what my eyes are seeing now
(You're still so beautiful and yet so morbidly still)

Baby, lay in my arms and cuddle me close
Soon this will be just an awful memory...
(Will I ever be able to sleep again?)

My angel, lie to me and tell me I'm dreaming
(Please, wake me up, please, wake me!)
A girl like you will always be such a tragic part of me
(Oh, ecstasy, you torture me!)

(Sweet revenge... He will pay) My, (He will pay) dear!

Empty eyes accuse a face so evil, I'm coming undone
The mirror says it all
A crimson story of innocence lost
Empty eyes accuse a face so evil, I'm coming undone
(What have I done to her?)

(So terribly memory returns)
(Of her struggle, of her screams, of her)
Lord forgive me!
(My stomach heaves as I see the blood that covers me)
(Blood that was once hers)
I'm a monster!

...Such an awful memory...
(Will I ever be able to sleep again?)

My angel, lie to me and tell me I'm dreaming
(Please, wake me up, please, wake me!)
A girl like you will always be such a tragic part of me
(Oh, ecstasy, you torture me!)

Sweet revenge... I will pay (My!), I will pay (Dear!)

A mirror never lies
They know, everybody knows
Do you not see what they see?
A mirror never lies
I see what they see
Everybody knows. Everybody knows
