Alesana

a touch of poison seals my fate
the dawn echoes the night with my glory...the sun himself honors me
once king of roses, now lord of gold
blessed with the gift of gilded touch
the Gods themselves envy my hand
fate wields its knife to cut the thread
I curse the day my dream became my descent
suddenly I long for you, my only love
in my perfection I have no want
a folly as fatal as sin...
yet eyes still glint with greed untold
...has now become the end of me
