Album: On Frail Wings Of Vanity And Wax (2006)

The Third Temptation Of Paris

The horizon, now as dark as the crimes that brought them here,
Is filled with my impending dread...
My foolish actions will cost so many good men
Achilles has come...

A thousand sails approaching
Sent here in her name to reclaim the one I stole
And destroy the walls of Troy...

Desire leaves me numb to all the pain surrounding me
To all the pain surrounding me
Storms will arise to condemn me
I will not die before her eyes...
It ends tonight

Tragically I now must accept the penance I have earned
She is cursed and tonight we die
In the dawn of this, my end, I hold my sword true
I must let her go

A thousand sails approaching
Sent here in her name to reclaim the one I stole
And destroy the walls of Troy...

Desire leaves me numb to all the pain surrounding me
To all the pain surrounding me
Storms will arise to condemn me
I will not die before her eyes...
It ends tonight

It ends tonight
It ends tonight
It ends tonight
I am alone
Pain fills her eyes
I am alone

I must save my honor,
(Sacred and profane is our love in death)
I cannot let them win,
(Sacred and profane is our love in death)
The blood of many spills
(Sacred and profane is our love)
In death
