Heavy Hangs the Albatross

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Shawn Milke] I've made up my mind, and I will be leaving Leaving this cruel, dark world For the soulless to share But first [Verse 2: Dennis Lee & Shawn Milke] Women will shriek and watch their husbands bleed Children will cry (Children will cry), and watch their mothers die Because tonight (Because tonight) Tonight, we all go to Hell (Why?) [Verse 3: Shawn Milke, Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] I have to let go of what happened to my love I am taking out on everyone else all the problems I've brought on myself When I made your heart melt My belle, we soon will meet again [Pre-Chorus: Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] There's nothing left for me to lose except confusion I'm finished trying to tell myself this will go away There's no one left to talk me down My feet are slipping [Chorus: Shawn Milke, Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee, Dennis Lee] One day, oh, I hope my name doesn't bring back memories Of the day that I left her Goodbye, so long, my heart belongs to the one I am chasing after For better, or even for worse, remember me forever [Breakdown: Dennis Lee] Now the only question left is how to take you all down with me The coroner will have his hands full tonight That is, if he is not among the dead Dead will choke the street with such vulgarity that grown men will weep And then you will find the end is drawing nigh [Pre-Chorus: Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] There's nothing left for me to lose except confusion I'm finished trying to tell myself this will go away There's no one left to talk me down My feet are slipping [Chorus: Shawn Milke, Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee, Dennis Lee] One day, oh, I hope my name doesn't bring back memories Of the day that I left her Goodbye, so long, my heart belongs to the one I am chasing after For better, or even for worse, remember me [Bridge: Melissa Milke & Adam Fisher, Shawn Milke] The dizziness stuns me; would someone please distract me? Can I really get through this? Can I really betray myself? For better or for worse, remember forever (There's sweat on my hands and a knife at my throat) The dizziness stuns me; would someone please distract me? (And as the blade bites my skin, Annabel appears) Can I really get through this? Can I really betray myself? For better or for worse, remember forever (For better or for worse, remember me forever) [Chorus: Shawn Milke, Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee, Dennis Lee] One day, oh, I hope my name doesn't bring back memories Of the day that I left her Goodbye, so long, my heart belongs to the one I am chasing after For better, or even for worse, remember me forever
