These days are closing in
The end has become apparent
We're only here for so long
Will anyone remember my name
When time has washed away the dust of our ashes?
When my head rests in a velvet lined casket?
Whats out there? what is my eternal fate?
It only just recently hit me
That this life is just a state
Mortality fading
Like the innocence of love
I'm scared to death of what's to become
Of my immortal soul of this eternal flame
Will you remember?
will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name?
Who can tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time?
Does it all simply end
In a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?
All those things you couldnt say
You should have said
All those 'I love yous' lost
Weighed more like lead on your ches
What if I could take back all those misspent days?
Every second of anger
I would wash my sins away
The Curse

I see this as Atreyu's "epic song" if you get what I mean. Big lead at the beginning, slows down, and builds up into the chorus. Amazing writting.

It's a good song but I can do without the whole "all those things i didn't say i should have said" part.

your fucking kidding me right...... Atreyu is not atreyu without screeming... They are... or were HARDCORE... this requires screaming... if u dont like screaming u dont like atreyu... and if u think atreyu shouldnt scream the you should just go listen to TBS and Brand New... I fucking hate emo... fake fucking hardcore.... God.... yea this song musicly is decent... lyrics are decent i geuss... not as good compared to old atreyu... Sadly that atreyu died with Suicide Notes And Butterfly Kisses.... The new atreyu is... well... The new atreyu... so yea. So so sad.

wow...if you don't like this album J3ST3R stop fucking commenting. This isn't about comparing the "old" atreyu to "new" atreyu. if it was the same it would suck. we don't want the same shit. i think this whole album is brilliant.

calm down young'ns. the point is, atreyu kicks ass, and they scream, so screaming atreyu kicks ass. lets not talk about what they should and shouldn't have done, cuz the fact of the matter is, they DID or DIDNT do it, so, get over, and enjoy the kickassness as it is. HARDCORE!!!!!!!!!

It would be boring when this album was the same as SNABK. They changed their sound and if Mr. Jester (and I hope that you tought of that name when you were 14 years old, cause it sucks but so does mine...) doesn't like their new sound. Too bad. You can't turn back time y'know. I think this album drastically rocks....

This is by far one of my favorite songs ever. Blows me away ever time i hear it, totaly unexpected by Atreyu. Actually the whole album is a work of art, probably the second best album I have ever experienced aside to Soilwork's "Stabbing The Drama".

I love the lyrics that some bands have, it's so pictureque and very appealing to all the senses. I mean with as humans have recently developed an obession with immortality and vampires. The media tells us this and we all yearn for such power and strength, let alone the desire to live forever. I mean, who really wants to die? Goddamn I sound like some sort of therapist or something...regardless I love music that have lyrics that actually -mean- something and not some airhead trying to rhyme one word to the next *cough* [insert band here] *cough* Please ignore my mindless babble.

Definitely one of Atreyu's best. Their guitars sound super good in this track, I wouldnt change a thing from this album. Although, Suicide Notes is still my favorite.

Suicide Notes was original and beautiful... This is Verse Chorus Verse Chorus over and over... They also changed the guitar style... On suicide notes they used diffrent melodies for each guitarist but on this album they are often playing the same thing... Uncreative and unoriginal... Atreyu is dead =/

I agree with The Jester on everything I have read him post about Atreyu. Suicide Notes was an almost perfect album, then they follow it up with this!?!? They have a few good songs on this cd. this is actually my favorite song on this cd. But I wish that they could have stuck to their original roots and made a Suiced Notes and Butterfly Kisses part 2. They also should never have covered "You Give Love A Bad Name."

lollllllllll "you imcicil". way to make yourself look like a complete moron. insecure much, guy? you try and insult his intelligence and then have the audacity to critique his use of the english language when you can't even spell a simple word correctly? perhaps you should take your own advice and read the dictionary instead of spending your life posting your pathetic comments on this website.

The intro immediately hooked me in. I love riffs like that which sounded kinda mesmeorizing. A ballad coming from Atreyu is totally unexpected. This song might be good, but it's too repeative to play whole day.

hypocrite? not exactly. apparently i wasn't specific enough. i don't go around here posting endless comments on bands i don't like. the only person here i've attacked is you, because once in a while, a person such as yourself deserves it. if you'd shut the fuck up, i wouldn't have to. people like this song. people like this band. you don't. everybody here knows that because you post it 17 times under each song. just let it go, guy.
