With humble beginnings in Baltimore and then solidifying

------ About the song Icarus performed by Alesana
Who's doing the speaking throughout the whole thing? Not the girl, I think that's Melissa Milke, but the male voice? Is it Dennis? Shawn's singing and screaming in the back, and the guitarists don't vocalize or speak throughout, so by process of elimination, it's Dennis, right?
this song is really cool.. i listen to it every morning when i wake up.. and every evening before i sleep.. dont hate this kind of music....its our only way to let our problems go...at least for a while

------ About the song Congratulations, I Hate You performed by Alesana
This song is beautiful. Alesana is amzing. For all you stupid people who diss screamo. Go screw yourself! Screamo probably has the most beautiful lyrics ever. Anyways, I can't stop listening to this song. It's practically my theme song! "As you build your dreams on my shattered hope, I look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy." BEAUTIFUL! <3 :)
i dedicated this song for my ex girlfriend after she left me for the reason i still did not understand. Because of his mom?that reason was only for the girls who deserve nothing but a game,ive tried so hard only to bring her back to me,ive down myself and lose my pride just because i had loved her after she loved me,and now i did not even know how to stop!i couldnt move on so i decided to hate her and throw all the memories we had,i coudnt keep our past becuase i knew that it would only hurt me.
in the 'on frail wings of vanity and wax' album version it is blood drips in my eyes ,but in the acoutic song which these are the lyrics too it is actually sweat drips in my eyes .i have no idea why ?
This song is apsolutley beautiful!! the way they put everythong together is just great!! i think that this song apology and the last three letters are there best songs but thats just me personaslly!!! I <3 alesana!! xx (:

------ About the song Congratulations, I Hate You performed by Alesana
as much time and effort and sheer art went into this song as some of your mainstream stuff. there is as much talent amongst bands like Alesana as there is with your pop bands.
but these people tell it like it is.
i know more people with people with emotional problems than i know people who go out clubbing and hook up.
this is real life, and life is harsh. naturally this song isn't going to be palatable.
this is not celebs singing about fucking half-drunk girls/guys.
if this is a song for "queers" and "faggots" then these people have great taste in music.
wow. alesana, this song is incredible. I just love how the lyrics to all of your songs contain such a profound amount of meaning, that impacts even the most ignorant individuals. Dont you dare stop.
this song is amazing.
i feel like it relates to me so much !
my life isnt very good right now, and my parent think im gonna do drugs (which i was) and they think im some piece of shit. and, im starting to believe it.
i dont have very many friends, either.
they are the reason im so fucked up.
wow, that felt good to get out !

------ About the song Apology performed by Alesana
This song tells the story of Oedipus. He was the son of a king and queen and when he was born, it was prophesized that he would kill his father and marry his mother as an adult. His parents, scared by this prediction, had a servant take the baby out to the feilds to kill him and prevent that from happening. The servant took pity on the child and gave him to a couple who lived in the next town. They raised him as their own, but as an adult, he heard of this prophesy and left home. As he crossed the bridge into (unbeknownst to him) his birth town, he killed a man riding in a carriage. That man was his biological father. Unaware of this, he continued into town and wooed the queen (his biological mother), and they were married. They had three daughters together. I don't remember how, it's been a while since I read this book, but Oedipus finds out that his wife is, in fact, his mother. Distraught and guilty after his mother/wife hangs herself upon this dicovery, Oedipus gouges his own eyes out with broach pin and wonders the earth as a blind man for the rest of his life.
The correct lyrics are as followed (I tried submitting them, but someone else did and i cant until the other persons is processed. (which i looked at and its still missing a part at the end)
HELP ME…
TO SLEEP… (2x)
Jealousy rears its ugly head
I won't forget the things you said before
You turned your back
Goodbye, goodnight, for good
Remember my face when you feel the pain
(Say goodbye)
Now I'll fight with my eyes closed
For the things I've let go
SWEET BREATH ESCAPES
Choke on the lies that were your last goodbye
Hear my voice as you sleep
SLEEP TIGHT, GOODNIGHT
Choke on the lies that were your last goodbye
Goodbye helps me to sleep without your memory
And my shattered dreams
Collect dust on what used to be a lie
It haunts me no more
And now you're gone
You've left me alone
I wasn't wrong
To feel this way inside
So GOODBYE, GOODNIGHT, FOR GOOD
Now I'll fight with my eyes closed
For the things I've let go
SWEET BREATH ESCAPES
Choke on the lies that were your last goodbye
Hear my voice as you sleep
SLEEP TIGHT, GOODNIGHT
Choke on the lies that WERE YOUR LAST
I FIND PLEASURE IN
THE TASTE
OF YOUR
DECAY
I ANXIOUSLY
WATCH YOU FADE AWAY
I can't explain what's happening
INSIDE OF ME
I REFUSE
TO FIGHT YOU ANYMORE
All I know is I have to make sure
(MAKE SURE YOU NEVER)
WAKE UP AGAIN
(Quiet)
Soft flesh gives way to trembling hand
BEAUTIFUL…
EYES ARE SEWN… SHUT…
SEARING THREAD…
SUFFOCATES… THE LIGHT…
(THE LIGHT)
BEAUTIFUL…
EYES ARE SEWN… SHUT…
SEARING THREAD…
SUFFOCATES… THE LIGHT…

------ About the song Apology performed by Alesana
This IS the correct lyrics. I did some research. The other one is missing parts
Sweat drips in my eyes
Screams of lust we cry
Tonight you are everything
YOU'RE EVERYTHING
YOU'RE EVERYTHING TO ME
NO MORE AS I WAKE
FROM THIS PERFECT DREAM
(I'LL ESCAPE)
FROM EDEN'S WALLS
I CAN NOT STAY (AND)
LIVE THIS LIE
FOR I NOW
MUST THINK ONLY OF MYSELF
And to think that you will not be scared
OR SURPRISED I SEVERED
ALL THESE TIES
THIS IS THE END
I'll lose myself in anguish for tonight
Help me get over you
I FEEL SO NUMB
TO SEE THIS BITTER END
IT HAS COME TO THIS
(END OF) BEAUTIFUL ILLUSIONS
ONE LAST KISS
BRO-KEN PIE-CES WILL NOT
SAVE OUR PAST NOW
I'll lose myself in anguish for tonight
Help me get over you
One last false apology
Help me get over you
NOW WE MUST LET GO
(WE MUST LET GO)
URGENCY OVERWHELMS ME AS
I MUST RESTRAIN
MY FLOOD OF TEARS
I REFUSE TO BE
SLAVE TO YOUR FALSE BEAUTY
AGAIN
I'll lose myself in anguish for tonight
Help me get over you
One last false apology
Help me get over you
IN MY MIND
Blood drips from your eyes
A BEAUTIFUL
Last goodbye

I love screamo music this is one of my favorite screamo bands i started listening to congradulations i hate u and this is the part where people scream and i loved them so i looked up more songs and i listened to this one and it instantly became my favorite song by alesana
For the person who said it sounds like a girl, For example "fantasize for tragedy" is Shawn's sister. She has a larger part in The Third Temptation of Paris and it really is a great interlude in their album. <3 Alesana :D
