The Thespian Lyrics - Emptiness - Alesana

Baby, why are you doing this to me? 

Sweetheart, are those your eyes 

Staring straight back at me? 

Angel, I see your smile everywhere 

Darling, stop 

Night falls and I'm running in circles 

I'm being chased by my imagination 

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine 

Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine 

No one deserves to live like this 

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine 

Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine 

No one deserves to live like this 

I touch your lips and stare in your eyes 

You smile and it makes me fly 

You are the reason my heart beats 

Tonight, it's just you and me 

Night as dark as my thoughts 

Sets the scene for my return 

Lightning nips at my heels 

As I race home 

Wearily I stagger 

Towards the song of her pale voice 

Demons jeer my attempt 

To be free 

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine 

Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine 

No one deserves to live like this 

Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine 

Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine 

No one deserves to live like this 

I touch your lips and stare in your eyes 

You smile and it makes me fly 

You are the reason my heart beats 

Tonight, its just you and me 

Windows cast her gentle reflection 

(Dear...God!) 

Her somber silhouette dances for me 

(It's...Her!) 

Look at you, you miserable fool 

Get off your knees, your prayers fall upon deaf ears 

God's turned his back on you, heaven's gates are shut 

And now you're knocking on the devils door 

I've been expecting you for some time, sir 

Allow me to introduce myself 

I'm the one who pulls on all the strings, son 

You're lucky I don't kill you where you stand 

This cant be real 

Tonight I raise my glass 

There's nothing left 

For I know it's time to move on 

All hope has failed 

My patience will not last 

I've lost my soul 

Tomorrow, I will be gone 

The night sky feels as though it has never been darker 

With the fleeting hope of vengeance compelling me 

I will attempt to recollect myself and resume my chase 

But what is it that I am chasing, am I really chasing anything at all? 

Or am I simply drowning myself in revenge to avoid the horrifying truth? 

I've lost the only thing that made me feel truly alive 

Are my hands responsible, are his, who was he? 

Who was the madman that stood before me tonight? 

I swear I've seen his face before 

I know I've seen his face before
