Alesana - Fatal Optimist lyrics

I miss counting the stars
And I miss the way you kiss me
I miss the way you touch me
I miss calling you mine
Baby, you know who I am
And there’s nobody I’d rather dance
With in the moonlight i just want to go back

I fear the emptiness will swallow me whole
This is my confession

I am no hero and I’m not a saint
I can’t save the world
And I never asked for this
In your eyes I see the questions
I don’t have the answers for
Arise suspicious minds

You told yourself I was pure
Certain that I would save you
But, if it crosses your mind
That I was saving myself
Remind yourself that I’m dangerous!
Maybe I’m not as honest as it seems
A siren dressed in silk
Maybe I’m just selling a lie
A villain in disguise

I don’t know if I’m praying
I don’t know if I’m begging
But, I have to believe that someone
Something out there can hear me
I have to know that there is a chance
I have to believe that I
Might escape this hell
I fear I’ve lost myself and I
Don’t know the way back
The way back to what I once was
Am I Fatima? Am I Rusalka? Or
Am I just me? Sweet, innocent Annabel

Star crossed lovers in strife
Embracing on a battlefield
Giving in to the fight
Changing at the speed of light
Time to move on to another night
Time to move on to another fight
