I saw Alesana live a few years ago and Shawn played this as the encore song, and the band came in at the end. Before it began, he explained that this song was about his best friend who died from a drug overdose. He said "drugs are dream killers" right before he started the song.

damn that sucks

[@bluxkyrxngxrx_2606]

Last night I forgot How the sound of your voice whispered sweet goodbyes Your eyes, left to die I'm alone to understand why Why not one more night? One last kiss goodbye? Me sweet love, tonight I hope the stars still spell out your name where you are Kiss my closing eyes Help me sleep, without you I'm so lost And tonight, I cry, tell me why I can't live without your warm embrace Why not one more night? One last kiss goodbye? My sweet love, tonight I hope the stars still spell out your name where you are I close my eyes and you are everything I see... Goodbye... Goodbye to you my love I won't forget you I'll see you soon Goodbye my love Goodbye to you my love I won't forget you Bye bye, love

There's countless great classic (alesana considered classic since im 33 now😂) bands with magical voices like Ronnie james Dio, Bruce Dickinson Ozzy Osbourne Phil Anselmo lists go on and on. Not saying that music these days pretty much crap but for a guy that appreciate good metal sound i promise you this. they're really good and worth listening to 🤘🤘

I was listening to this song while watching my old pictures when i was young (4 and 5 years old) and i start crying. Its a weird and indescribable emotion, maybe i thought that i miss my old one so much. My dreams, my child mind, my innocence, my hopes, my love... i dont know, Im afraid of time because its able to destroy anything, any person, any home, any place, any thoughts... Thanks for music guys

What is Shawn Mike's voice type range in this song? Soprano or baritone?

[@josephhill4869]

+MariosGuy uhm i think its soprano. i don't think his voice is that deep to be baritone. but i may be wrong.

[@kmw5100]

tenor is what you're looking for. just the upper ranges. some notes are very nasal head voice type falsetto.

When I was twelve my best friend the love of my life was murdered in cold blood. I used to play this song on repeat, flash forward almost 8 years later and I’m still here playing this song. I wanted to go be with him, I don’t even know what’s real anymore or why I’m alive still. I’m so empty without the love of my life.

[@xXHireneXx]

I recall going on a gore site and seeing this Indian man found hung. He left a note and someone in the comments took the liberty of translating. It mention how he could not go on in life without his wife and may his family forgive his trip to the stars. That last part really stuck with me. Everytime I listen to this song, I think of this stranger on the other side of the world who took his life... Sometimes I shed a tear or two.

It's not like they WORKED on the song or anything, I mean, they ONLY made it to make you feel bad about yourself. And my sarcasm is killing me.
