Oh, How the Mighty Have Fallen

Alesana

I'm having trouble breathing
And if I don't think fast I'm likely to find myself here for good
Panic sets in as I start to question
Why I see you standing there beyond the glass

Who said that we never would touch the speed of light
So far behind me, understanding
Stars become rivers flowing backwards, oh yeah
When did my heartbeat start to echo
Why are my thoughts now fading, drifting, yeah
Twisting, yea, tearing, yea, bleeding, yeah

Excuse me, are you a maniac
I am and I'm okay with that

My moon, my stars
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I'm terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything

An endless maze, a mobiüs labyrinth
Exodus, redemption, where have you gone
And yet your gaze will not cease to burn into me
So far removed, so mockingly you observe
Pariah, hypocrite, I will be free
And yet you will remain

Excuse me, are you a maniac
I am and I'm okay with that

My moon, my stars
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I'm terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything, goodbye my everything

No
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No,
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design

Don't go back, don't leave me
Hide from the world, let's not exist
Please God kill me

Time is mocking me and now I'm fighting gravity, yeah
I'm destroying me, colliding worlds will set you free

A straight line is not the shortest distance between two points
I know that now, but I'm afraid it might be too late

Will we come back from this

Hold my hand, I'm blind
Show me how, I'm lost
My God it's beautiful
The portal opens, time is slowing, no turning back now, 'Bel

My moon, my stars
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I'm terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything, goodbye my everything

No
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design
