Listen while you read!

I can't see through the tears in my eyes!*
I can't see through the tears in my eyes!
I can't breathe!

I feel I failed!
I was meant to make you smile!
I was meant to make you shine,
To make you shine!

They said
This could never happen!
They said
We could never be!
Are you telling me you listened?

I was meant to make you smile!
I was meant to make you shine!
[x3]

So there's no you and me?
And we can't live this way forever (forever)?
(You said you'd run away)
You said you'd run away,
You said you'd run away with me (with me),
You'd run away.

That we'd escape from the ordinary!
That we'd escape from the world that tied us down!
That we'd escape from the ordinary!
That we'd escape from the world that kept us apart!

(Whoa!) So now this is over and the world falls upon me.
(Whoa!) I never expected to be here alone.
(Whoa!) The shadows are forming as we burst into flames.
(Whoa!) Why does this end this way?

Whoa!
Whoa! (Why does this end this way?)
Whoa!
Whoa!

    The song that leads into this one is called Hiatus, not Alerion. And was end of reason while Ben was still in Dubai?

    The intro is called Alerion. (: I love asking Alexandria. You guys should check out EndOfReason, it's ben's band before AA they broke up but he was the screamer I think(:

    It melts into it and I got this from a friend, but no song names or anything.

    Look, I fucking love AA but do you lot want to get any more depressive? It's a song, admittedly a deep one, hell, they all are, there a deep band, and that's awsome, but "there here when nobody else is" WTF? That's kinda takin it too far?

    This song is really wonderful. AA always finds a way to get something in their songs about real life feelings, and indeed, they are epic. The vocals are amazing, and so are the instruments. They have the right blend of emo and screamo. I would recomend to get the album, and listen carefully to each song. This is my favorite song, and totally captures how I feel through it.
