AFI "The Great Disappointment" lyrics

Translation to:frhu

The Great Disappointment

I can remember a place I used to goChrysanthemums of white, they seemed so beautifulI can remember, I searched for the amaranthI'd shut my eyes... to see

Oh, how I smiled then, so near the cherished onesI knew they would appear... saw not a single oneOh, how I smiled then, waiting so patientlyI'd make a wish... and bleed

While I waited I was wasting awayWhile I waited I was wasting away

I can remember... dreamt them so vividlySoft creatures draped in white, light kisses gracing meI can remember when I first realizedDreams were the only place to see them

While I waited I was wasting awayWhile I waited I was wasting awayWhile I waited I was wasting awayHope was wasting awayFaith was wasting awayI was wasting away

I never, never wanted thisI always wanted to believeI never, never wanted thisHow could I have become?I never, never wanted thisBut from the start I'd been deceivedI never, never wanted thisHow could I have become?

I never, never wanted thisI always wanted to believeI never, never wanted thisI never, never wanted thisBut from the start I'd been deceivedI never, never wanted this

Inside a crumbling effigyBut you promisedSo dies all innocenceBut you promised me

While I waited I was wasting awayWhile I waited I was wasting awayWhile I waited I was wasting awayHope was wasting awayFaith was wasting awayI was wasting away
