Testo The Great Disappointment - AFI

Testo della canzone The Great Disappointment (AFI), tratta dall'album Sing the Sorrow

I can remember a place I used to go
Chrysanthemums of white, they seemed so beautiful
I can remember, I searched for the amaranth
I'd shut my eyes to see
Oh, how I smiled then, so near the cherished ones
I knew they would appear, saw not a single one
Oh, how I smiled then, waiting so patiently
I'd make a wish and bleed
While I waited, I was wasting away
While I waited, I was wasting away
I can remember, dreamt them so vividly
Soft creatures draped in white, light kisses gracing me
I can remember when I first realized
Dreams were the only place to see them
While I waited, I was wasting away
While I waited, I was wasting away
While I waited, I was wasting away
Hope was wasting away
Faith was wasting away
I was wasting away
Never, never wanted this, always wanted to believe
Never, never wanted this (how could I have become?)
Never, never wanted this, from the start I'd been deceived
Never, never wanted this (how could I have become?)
Never, never wanted this, always wanted to believe
Never, never wanted this (oh)
Never, never wanted this, from the start I'd been deceived
Never, never wanted this (oh)
Inside a crumbling effigy
But you promised
So dies all innocence
But you promised me
While I waited, I was wasting away
While I waited, I was wasting away
While I waited, I was wasting away
Hope was wasting away (while I waited)
Faith was wasting away (I was -)
I was wasting away
