A Threnody For Modern Romance

alas here is your serenade my darling that leaves you speechless and weak
may it teach you how to feel
may it remedy your heartlessness
and may your cries not interrupt this swansong
this is a call to arms for all who recognize romance as
as a dying scene
who'll take it to their graves
this is a call to arms for all who hold this sacrament close
may our hearts burn on
how dare you weep
for it's insinerity that trickles down your face
alas here is your serenade my darling
and oh what a long time coming it has been
this cruel lullaby that shall plague your dreams
and carry me towards revolution
this is a call to arms for all who recognize romance as
as a dying scene
who'll take it to their graves
this is a call to arms for all who hold this sacrament close
may our hearts burn on
I'll sing for you the thernody of modern romance
this is a call to arms for all who recognize romance as
as a dying scene
who'll take it to their graves
this is a call to arms for all who hold this sacrament close
may our hearts burn on
