Great Disappointment lyrics
I can remember a place I used to go.
Chrysanthemums of white,
They seemed so beautiful.
I can remember, I searched for the amaranth
I'd shut my eyes, to see.
Oh, how I smiled then,
So near the cherished ones.
I knew they would appear,
Saw not a single one.
Oh, how I smiled then, waiting so patiently.
I'd make a wish and bleed.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
I can remember, dreamt them so vividly.
Soft creatures draped in white,
Light kisses gracing me.
I can remember when I first realized
Dreams were the only place to see them.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
Hope was wasting away.
Faith was wasting away.
I was wasting away.
Never, never wanted this.
Always wanted to believe.
Never, never wanted this.
How could I have become?
Never, never wanted this.
But from the start I'd been decieved.
Never, never wanted this.
How could I have become?
Never, never wanted this.
Always wanted to believe.
Never, never wanted this, oh.
Never, never wanted this.
But from the start I'd been decieved.
Never, never wanted this, oh.
Inside a crumbling effigy.
But you promised.
So dies all innocence.
But you promised me.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
While I waited, I was wasting away.
Hope was wasting away.
Faith was wasting away.
I was wasting away.
