Alesana - To Be Scared by an Owl lyrics

Look at the sky as the night descends
The rain is crashing down
Ive hit another dead end
Just before I let hope slip away
A shadow is revealed
The devil shows his face

Im scared to death and have myself to blame
Im to blame
How did we end up fighting anyway?

You know, i used to search the sky and
Dream of where you were
I need you by my side
We can end this together
I know I promised you the world
And still I let you down
I need you by my side and
Together well end this now
Look in my eyes! am I shaking now?
I am all you fear, have I made myself clear?

Shut your mouth and finish what youve started
Boy, you haven't got the slightest idea
Just who I am and what I do for you
Don't you see that I am trying to save you?
Shut your mouth and finish what youve started

Im scared to death and have myself to blame
No one else
How did we end up fighting anyway?

You know, i used to search the sky and
Dream of where you were
I need you by my side
We can end this together
I know I promised you the world
And still I let you down
I need you by my side and
Together well end this now

As the last rays of sunlight fade
One killer chases another
Through the tangled madness of the city
A flash of steel announces the
Presence of his quarry
The stage is set, the night explodes

You killed her you murderer
You have stripped me of the one that I love
Annabel, our annabel
You have no clue what shes capable of
Im scared to death and have myself to blame
How did we end up fighting anyway?

You know, i used to search the sky and
Dream of where you were
I need you by my side
We can end this together
I know I promised you the world
And still I let you down
I need you by my side and
Together well end this now

Youd better look behind you

Her youthful flesh color had drained from
Her much like the very
Blood from her veins upon the
Bedding in which she
Lied such a fowl image for
One to withhold in some
Twisted way it only seemed to
Enhance her exquisite beauty
Like a lily on a grave i have failed
Once again I have let her down

My poor, sweet Annabel you trusted in
Me you gave me your love
Your soul now I fall to my knees in
Front of the man that took you from
Me i fall pathetic, defeated i will be
With you again so soon, my love
So very soon eyes of an angel
Await me and I'll be damned
Nothing's going to stop me now

Sweetheart, darling
Turn around, It's me, follow my voice
Everything's going to be okay, my love
Everything will be fine it's all over now
