[00:00.000] Curse Of The Virgin Canvas - Alesana
[00:01.154]
[00:02.309] I am here to tell you a story
[00:04.417] a story that will torture your thoughts by day
[00:06.776] and poison your dreams by night
[00:08.992] and though I will do my best
[00:10.458] there are no words
[00:11.210] that can be written nor brush strokes laid on canvas
[00:13.976] that can describe the stark and utter horror of the night
[00:17.091] that annabel died
[00:18.448] the emptiness will haunt you
[00:19.856]
[00:39.225] this is a nightmare is my annabel really gone
[00:45.498] my eyes are stung by daylight
[00:47.505] find it hard to breathe
[00:48.806] her body teases me as the sun reveals the dawn
[00:55.178] the smell of blood still crawls
[00:57.287] I kiss you softly goodbye
[01:01.304] baby lay in my arms and cuddle me close
[01:06.605] soon this will be just an awful memory
[01:14.144] will I ever be able to sleep again
[01:19.257] my angel lie to me and tell me I'm dreaming
[01:25.037] please wake me up please wake me
[01:28.635] a girl like you will always be such a tragic part of me
[01:35.065] oh ecstasy you torture me
[01:38.445] I watch the blood drip from the corners of your mouth
[01:43.719] your icy flesh is laying
[01:46.076] your pallid skin still glows
[01:47.581] I'm starting to believe what my eyes are seeing now
[01:53.409] you're still so beautiful and yet so morbidly still
[01:59.629] baby lay in my arms and cuddle me close
[02:04.952] soon this will be just an awful memory
[02:12.593] will I ever be able to sleep again
[02:17.618] my angel lie to me and tell me I'm dreaming
[02:23.138] please wake me up please wake me
[02:26.851] a girl like you will always be such a tragic part of me
[02:33.281] oh ecstasy you torture me
[02:46.170] empty eyes accuse a face so evil
[02:51.788] I'm coming undone
[02:56.597] the mirror says it all
[02:59.259] a crimson story of innocence lost
[03:07.370] empty eyes accuse a face so evil
[03:12.791] I'm coming undone
[03:15.851] what have I done to her
[03:21.733] awful memory
[03:30.573] awful memory
[03:37.245] such an awful memory
[03:40.657] will I ever be able to sleep again
[03:45.719] my angel lie to me and tell me I'm dreaming
[03:51.483] please wake me up please wake me
[03:55.091] a girl like you will always be such a tragic part of me
[04:01.143] oh ecstasy you torture me
[04:05.796]
[04:31.137] a mirror never lies
[04:33.147] they know
[04:34.604] everybody knows
[04:36.715] do you not see what they see
[04:39.705] a mirror never lies
[04:41.663] I see what they see everybody knows
[04:45.586] everybody knows
