    The Blackout

    by: Ligeia

    The going rate on seduction must be a dime a dozen
    So don't get your hopes up
    This life's a contradiction,
    a typecast for hypocrisies,
    but you run the miles away on to sell yourself short
    And i am the one who dreams of you
    I dream of you as a concubine
    Taste the salt from your worthless tears
    I felt your heart beat for one last time
    and i let go forever
    And I am the one who dreams of you
    I dream of you
    I still dream of you
    Sirens fade from silence
    this is were the story ends
    In a dream of truth, they'll never find you
    Yellow tape, empty chalklines,
    that's all she wrote
    Head first through a noose,
    I'd shed a tear for you,
    but you're not even here
    I scream your name for one last time
    Can you here me now?
    Can you feel me now?
    But i must move on to find
    reason for years of weakening disaster
    So wait for passion, but tell me,
    do you fear for heartache?
    There's no hope left for solace
    I know, I know so let go
    This blackout begins to define this sorry moment
    So wait for passion, but tell me,
    do you fear for heartache?
    I let go of everything I loved
    From all the bridge drops,
    I leave her crimson tide
    There's no hope left for solace
    I know, I know so i let go
    This blackout begins
