Текст песни Lullaby of the Crucified - Alesana

(I'll be your lover tonight)

My own misery is taunting me...
The air stings my lungs, I can barely see
Wicked eyes surrounding me, the trees are watching silently
I could try to run, but, baby, what's the point?

I may never know...
(I don't see the point)
Why I let you go...

My body is aching (I'm losing my mind!)
There's nothing to hold onto
(My angel, close your eyes...)
(I'll be your lover tonight)
I'm tired of trying (I'm sick of the waiting!)
If there's nothing that I can do
(A pitiful lullaby...)
(To sing the tortured to sleep)

We could settle down and change the end...
Nothing but time, start over again
All the little things you do that made me fall in love with you
Have led me to this; a bittersweet abyss

I may never know...
(A vexatious kiss)
Why I let you go...

My body is aching (I'm losing my mind!)
There's nothing to hold onto
(My angel, close your eyes...)
(I'll be your lover tonight)
I'm tired of trying (I'm sick of the waiting!)
If there's nothing that I can do
(A pitiful lullaby...)
(To sing the tortured to sleep)

I will follow you into the night (My darling eyes...)
I would do anything to be lying with you
As I watch you, dream

(Nel mezzo del cammin di nostra vita)
(Mi ritrovai per una selva oscura)
(Ché la diritta via era smarrita)
(Esta selva selavaggia e aspra e forte)
(Che nel pensier rinova la paura!)
(Io non so ben ridir com'i' v'intrai)
(Tant'era pien di sonno a quel punto)
(Che la verace via abbandonai)
(Guardai in alto e vidi le sue spalle)
(Vestite già de' raggi del pianeta)
(Che mena dritto altrui per ogne calle)
(Così l'animo mio, ch'ancor fuggiva)
(Si volse a retro a rimirar lo passo)
(Che non lasciò già mai persona viva)

I have been reborn!
I have broken free!
I'm free! I'm free!
You can't deny me!
Do not defy me!
Abandon all hope for beyond time I stand!
I have been reborn!

(Darling, tonight we say goodbye)
(Sing a touching lullaby...)
(And we'll watch the angels cry)
(Sing a touching lullaby...)
(And we'll watch the angels cry)
