So this is continuous happiness
You know, I always
Imagined it something more
With the right drapes, the right paints
The right frames, this could really work
What a great day to spend indoors

Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up

In a hail of sparks
And a tangle of wires
Everything went wrong

So where has all the day gone?
And why are my lungs aching when I breathe?
Is there something wrong with the heat?
Why am I so cold?
And my heart feels sick
And it hurts when I speak
And this is not what I hoped for

Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up

Was this what we hoped for?

Was this what we hoped for?
Was this what we hoped for?

Was this what we hoped for?

Was this what we hoped for?
Was this?
Watch Out!

I agree with RedStarRage. This song has a powerful sadness to it, but it makes the song all that much more better. Overall an amazing song.

Totally agree. GEORGE IS THE LEAD SINGER. MAKE HIM SING LEAD! I HATE Dallas Green on this album. The first album, he was LISTED as backup, and he SANG backup. The way it SHOULD be.

If you want a band that gets better with each album... start listening to Thrice. They're INCREDIBLE even 3 or 4 albums later... unlike some other bands like new alexis.

this song is amazing, and this is a thoroughly solid album. all of you need to keep whining. growing as a band and expaning musical horizons is NOT the same as selling out. try listening to real music and maybe you will appreciate talent like this.

maybe theyre growing as a band but this cd doesn't show how talented they really are. Their last cd showed all of their skill.

If you don't like this cd stop listening to AOF because they disliked the first album, and had more control and did what they wanted with this one.

At first, i didnt particularly like this album, i thought self titled was better... but upon hearing this song again just then and then playing it again and really having a listen to it.. This is a really good song, and i think the singing being predominant works better. Although it is dangerous, putting them in the realms of many other screamo bands... this really works and i really like this song. GW Alexisonfire

This is my favourite song on the album. It's so powerful and touching. Seeing Dallas sing this live made me have a whole new appreciation for how talented of a singer he is. Fantastic album.

This song is touching and beautiful. It works really well with the agression, and tenderness.
