Curse Of The Virgin Canvas

Alesana

4

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 this 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 bleed 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 im dreaming

(please wake me up, please wake me)

A girl like you will always be

such a tragic part of me

(oh ecstacy you torture me).

i watch the blood drip

from the corners of your mouth

Your icy flesh is lying,

your pallid skin still glows.

im starting to belive

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 ecstacy you torture me).

Sweet revenge...

He will pay,

he will pay my dear.

empty eyes accuse

a face so evil

im comming undone

the mirror says it all

a crimison story

of innocence lost

empty eyes accuse

a face so evil

im comming undone

So terribly memory returns

of her struggle,

of her screams, of her.

Lord forgive me!

My stomache 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 im dreaming

(please wake me up, please wake me)

A girl like you will always be

such a tragic part of me

(oh ecstacy you torture me).

Sweet revenge...

He will pay,

he will pay my 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
