A Siren's Soliloquy Lyrics - On Frail Wings Of Vanity And Wax - Alesana

paralyzed by the beauty of those words 

that so delicately drip from this angel of untamed lust 

suddenly I fear the end of my solitude 

once a warrior, poetic shrieks now own my soul 

left behind to fight the ruthless pawns of Eris 

hope will strike her down beneath the blade as she sings for him 

suffering unseen now will be left to burn in her stare 

but he no longer fights the torture of her voice 

so long forgotten, I am lost in her stare 

mad so clear as she extracts her painful toll 

a soul now echoes with the torture of the sirens 

...he is hers... 

beautiful whispers leave one so far 

chain these hands of ageless struggle 

rid us of this beloved curse 

an epic tale of deceit is given life once more on silver lips so spiteful 

her tongue screams for him 

rid us of this curse 

suffering unseen now will be left to burn in her stare 

but he no longer fights the torture of her voice 

so long forgotten, I am lost in her stare 

mad so clear as she extracts her painful toll 

a soul now echoes with the torture of the sirens 

...he is hers... 

set loose so long ago by the foolish whim of Pandora 

phantoms which shall forever prey on mankind's weakness 

the grains of time hold no bearing to those eyes 

in pale moonlight she sings to the haunted sea 

vile notes seduce old Cerberus to slake unholy thirst 

left behind to fight the ruthless pawns of Eris 

hope will strike her down beneath the blade as she sings for him 

suffering unseen now will be left to burn in her stare 

but he no longer fights the torture of her voice 

so long forgotten, I am lost in her stare 

mad so clear as she extracts her painful toll 

a soul now echoes with the torture of the sirens 

...he is hers...
