"A Lesson Never Learned" by: Asking Alexandria

"A Lesson Never Learned"

Please, you have to help me
This is not my true face
If you could see my soul
As I have seen my soul
I could show it to you
It's rotten
It's poison
Help me please

Please give me a fucking excuse
I beg for just one reason to give you regret

Are you with me or are you on your own?
It's time to choose your side, so choose your side
Are you with me or are you on your own?
It's time to choose your side, so choose your fucking side

Could be the end of the world
I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away
Could be the end of the world
I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away

Hear me now
Get off your knees
Nothing changes when you pray
I'm the closest thing to a God you'll ever know
Get off your knees

Open your eyes
I'll regret never again
And I stand above you

And I can't feel this pain anymore
And I can't carry on this way
I'm hiding behind false eyes

Could be the end of the world
I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away
Could be the end of the world
I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away

Over and over
Over and over

Fucking hell

Fuck!

Asylum

"Asylum"

Release me

No remnants were ever found of it
Feeling the hot bile
With every fake smile
Though no evidence was ever found
It never went away completely

I try to hide from the unholy sound of it
Another day gone
Another night's dawn
Dark forces pull me underground
They never went away completely

How can I feel this empty?
I will not recover this time
This loneliness is killing me

Will I never know peace of mind again?
I don't believe it
I can't achieve it
I think it all is just another sign
> That never went away completely

Terror is coursing in me
Dreading the final moments
When I have to dream
And feel you die
([Background:] Death inside of me keeps a diligent watch on everything.
Keeps a terrible hold on my belief.
Just waiting for the moment when I...)

In Asylum (I live a lie)
Don't you know I'm in love with you
And I wasn't ready
For Asylum (Relive a lie)
To let go
Now it's dragging me into your grave
Your Asylum (Forgive the lie)
Overcome by the feeling that I won't get to join you in time
For the loneliness is killing me

Death's images are all around again
They're right behind me
They're gonna find me
Judgment for the immortal sin
That had enveloped me completely

I know I'll never know a peaceful night again
Afraid they'll hear me
They don't fear me
Punishment for the immoral crime
The debt was never paid completely

Terror is coursing in me
Dreading the final moments
When I have to dream
And feel you die
([Background:] Death inside of me keeps a diligent watch on everything.
Keeps a terrible hold on my belief.
Just waiting for the moment when I...)

In Asylum (I live a lie)
Don't you know I'm in love with you
And I wasn't ready
For Asylum (Relive a lie)
To let go
Now it's dragging me into your grave
Your Asylum (Forgive the lie)
Overcome by the feeling that I won't get to join you in time
For the loneliness is killing me

In the end there will be no suffering (more suffering)
In the end you will find out everything (not anything)
In the end you may question your belief (what belief)
In the end you will realize someday
How you were deceived

This has gone on too long (too long)
No more demonic dreams
Destroyer come to light
Because the memory is killing me

In Asylum (I live a lie)
I let go
Now it's dragging me into your grave
For Asylum (Relive a lie)
Overcome by the feeling that I won't get to join you in time
(without you) this world is not fulfilling me

Don't make me live in Asylum
I live a lie
Don't want to live in Asylum
I live a lie
Don't make me live in Asylum
I live a lie

As the Palaces Burn

As the Palaces Burn

The fiends have gagged a generation of pacified fools 

Bound by our greed a nation enslaved as corporate tools. 

Arise and raze the legacy of their lies 

To realize that this in itself is an ascension 

Towards the day we revolt. 

As the seeds you've cast away take hold 

War will be born. 

Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun 

We'll dance as the palaces burn. 

A shot gun blast into the face of deceit 

You'll gain your just reward. 

We'll not rest until the purge is complete 

You will reap what you've sown. 

My redemption lies in your demise. 

In such a world as this does one dare to think for himself? 

The paradox of power and peace will destroy itself 

To know the truth and live in fear of no man. 

To realize that this in itself is an ascension 

Toward the day we revolt. 

As the seeds you've cast away take hold 

War will be born. 

Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun 

We'll dance as the palaces burn. 

My redemption lies in your demise. 

Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun. 

We'll dance as the palaces burn.

Anthem Of The Angels

Anthem Of The Angels

White walls surround us

No light will touch your face again

Rain taps the window

As we sleep among the dead

Days go on forever

But I have not left your side

We can chase the dark together

If you go then so will I

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

Cold light above us

Hope fills the heart

And fades away

Skin white as winter

As the sky returns to grey

Days go on forever

But I have not left your side

We can chase the dark together

If you go then so will I

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

I keep holding onto you

But I can't bring you back to life

Sing the anthem of the angels

Then say the last goodbye

Your're dead alive

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

I keep holding onto you

But I can't bring you back to life

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye
