LYRICS:
Have you ever actually seen yourself without a mirror?
To slip through the cracks of the universe, my love so true, is my gift to you
Trapped in a world that was dreamt by a madman, hallelujah! hallelujah!
Little did he know his dreams would come true
I’m on to you! I’m on to you!
Think, if only he could see the gorgeous rage
Then maybe he would never have bled ink on page
An artist, he was so consumed by a world he saw in his mind
a world sadistic with lies and panicking cries
Our world is so callous and cold, empty and lost
I’ll bleed for you, to change it all, I’ll die for you to save us all
This could be our only chance
This could be our only hope
Lost in your passion, endless attraction, forever yours
You make me feel like I’m invincible
Love sings such a sweet ending
Ballad of lust , anticipate the irresistible
Changing the end means going back to where it all began
If we survive we take control and start again
You’ve lost your mind, tear the fabric of time itself?!
Stay close to me, I will rewrite history for you
Our world is so callous and cold, empty and lost
I’ll bleed for you, to change it all, I’ll die for you to save us all
This could be our only chance
This could be our only hope
Lost in your passion, endless attraction, forever yours
You make me feel like I’m invincible
Love sings such a sweet ending
Ballad of lust , anticipate the irresistible
As your hand drifts from mine
Two hearts still intertwined
Across both space and time
Remember I am yours
I am yours
Remember I am yours
Time seizes my hand
Only a fool is never afraid
Lost in your passion, endless attraction, forever yours
You make me feel like I’m invincible
Love sings such a sweet ending
Ballad of lust, anticipate the irresistible
Forever yours, irresistible
Forever yours, you make me feel like I’m invincible
Annabel please don’t go
I’ll be fine, we’ll be fine

You know when you're having a bad day and then suddenly something makes it all okay? Yeah. That just happened. Thank you Alesana.

[@ayzarr]

TheGrandCoda! Totally agree

[@oxxxca_dot_exe6657]

TheGrandCoda! just what I was thinking :')

[@giovandonis3471]

True ;D

[@bagusanugrahhalim6101]

+Giovan Donis better #3D

[@eeewee17]

I know I'm like 5 years late, but good for you. Alesana's music is frikin magical.

[@1oddcrow]

This trilogy has been a part of me for years now! Irreplaceable media. I can't describe how special of a medium music is for storytelling.

[@nassirjackson9038]

2:46 to 3:24 is the best part. I can just imagine how fun a concert would be during that part

[@Razlo5000]

I was once at an ACDC concert in an open football stadium during a powerful thunderstorm. Nobody has ever experienced thunderstruck like we did that night.

[@MrSofaKingdumb]

my favorite part too! :D

[@randallwatkins3532]

Nassir Jackson good sir i saw alesana live, it was incredible. they are so personal with their fans and the show was badass

[@josflorida5346]

They are nuts live. Ive seen them twice amd they destroy their equipment. Gear is all crackling and shit by the end 😂 they are local where im at and my bud down here in annapolis md is friends with them. Super cool people to drink with!

[@JuanHernandez-qx2fn]

ayyyyeeee its the anniversary of the drop!!!! Love You Alesana proud Nc boii right here

[@zombieinwhite4244]

I am seeing them tonight in Houston!

[@inflorescent1a]

It's the best track they've played at the time. I am very grateful that I found such a group in the distant past.

[@nicolasrodrigues9253]

Ja se faz 8 anos des da saída desse álbum❤o tempo passa mt rapido!!!❤😢

[@NimbusHex]

This album should have solidified Alesana as one of the best bands in the scene and skyrocketed their popularity. Instead, I think there are literally people still learning of its existence in 2023. This album is the complete product, a culmination of everything the band learned to do and not to do. It's The Emptiness on steroids. Shawn just pulled the trigger on Revival Records and releasing this album through it a little too early.

[@giratina47]

I replay this album to experience the nostalgia I felt in high school when this came out.

[@oshietkudafrickinsai1232]

2:46 ahh, there's that classic sound:)

[@ulisesrodriguez6528]

[@JamesonTenorio]

I need to read the story from this album!!!!

[@giovandonis3471]

Yeah bro me 2 XD x3

[@EpixWingz]

it's the beauty of alesana, you can give the story a meaning of yourself.

[@luciferlueth7617]

These guys never disappoint and are so amazing live. Forever my favorite band

[@brighteyedangel6559]

AHHH!!! A Continuation of the Emptiness!!!! I'm so ecstatic I couldn't get enough of the emptiness so hslf there's more to the story!

[@jq7558]

It's a trilogy. This is the last part. A Place Where The Sun Is Silent is a prequel to The Emptiness.

[@brighteyedangel6559]

Ik that. That's why I said CONTINUATION.

[@jq7558]

Ok. Just told you in case u didnt know, because you said "I couldn't get enough of The Emptiness so glad there's more to the story!" As if APWTSIS didn't exist.

[@brighteyedangel6559]

As you said, A Place Where The Sun Is Silent is a PREQUEL to the Emptiness. Meaning the story takes place before the Emptiness. Confessions is the continuation.

[@sickboy9496]

BrightEyed Angel Correction. Confessions takes place at the SAME time as The Emptiness, only through Annabel's eyes rather than The Artist.

[@gone-sovereign]

1:05 - 1:14 I adore that part. :3

[@CeeiWhiteGluzCobain]

me too!

[@francielylucker5492]

Muito foda este álbum..Alesana

[@saldanha47]

nice

[@ambrosecook-saloway2959]

I'm so sad I just now found out about this album. I bought the Emptiness and APWTSIS right when they came out and they have been some of my favorites. Also some commented about how they thought APWTSIS was a prequel to Emptiness or vice versa. I personally always thought APWTSIS was after Emptiness and The Artist and was his experience of hell, as it was something like their version of Dante's Inferno. I think the band themselves said it was similar to Dante's Inferno. I may be wrong though.

[@ambrosecook-saloway2959]

Ahh, So I was half correct and made assumptions thanks. I've never seen the Shaun Qoute, and how I interpreted the APWTSIS it seemed like he was experiencing his version of 'Hell" after The Emptiness.

[@ranaoozkan365]

OMG

[@ehehehehe92]

I love you so much alesana xD

[@Revivalrecs]

Catch them on their next tour! You can get the dates at revivalrecs.com

[@javierdiaz5118]

[@Fatal.optimist]

Could someone please tell me the story behind this song please 😋

[@idkidc3118]

+Nassir Jackson. I feel you man

[@jorgeo3326]

Oh Annabel... :)

[@paloma5070]

OP :'D

[@cadechristensen9116]

Is this album supposed to be a prequel to The Emptiness?

[@cadechristensen9116]

That is so great.

[@supersonic54]

***** Wait. It is? That's confirmed? I'm driving myself nuts figuring out the story and I don't have a the CD booklet >.

[@CrashDunning]

Cade Christensen Shawn said it takes place after The Emptiness.

[@supersonic54]

Yeah, I see it now. Pretty sure I've got the story down, just waiting on the official story from them now.

[@blessthephil]

Cade Christensen "A Place Where The Sun Is Silent" is the prequel

[@MrFloat777]

The intro slaps like fuck especially the drums god damn

[@dylannevermore9782]

the feel I want to listen to this with my girlfriend but her ex used to listen to this non stop

[@itsokaywereonfire]

Ninguém em 2018?

[@Sebastianbaraj5]

This is Fucking awesome!

[@triosciankliquit9982]

*2023* cuz Imma time traveler

[@ravennasuzy3974]

02:45 A PORRA FICOU SÉRIA ♡♡♡¤¤

[@MarcosVinicius-kf7xq]

Oi

[@EddyV00]

I don't really understand why, but... the melody after "remember I am yours" reminds me of Interstellar. Random.

[@DeadlyLight101]

When the song hits the first verse, I thought they said: "Trapped in a world that was crafted by a madman! Are you God? Are you God?" Mildly disappointed, 9.9/10 song

[@rominarodriguez6821]

FUCK THIS!!! LOVE IT 😂😍😍

[@TheScreamoxX]

Wow this is so wierd but i fucking love it.

[@cmhan1997]

Of course , I have a front view camera :) hahaha

[@justlikejohn5484]

Why doesn't this have more likes?

[@belleharris8738]

Edgy couple relationship goals *cries*

[@devinellis4686]

I figured out the ending holy shit holy shit

[@TheGreatLestat]

Devin Ellis Please tell me!! ;-; I really need to know

[@CrashDunning]

Devin Ellis Can someone explain the whole story from song to song? I only understand bits and pieces of it...

[@spamadityack7014]

TheGreatLestat sounds like Good girls bad guys by fir yeah?

[@MrLinkinParkskater]

Spamaditya ck No.

[@herosofloveanddeath]

Spamaditya ck not really lol, while I love both songs, this doesn't really have that same sound

[@cameronobrien17]

so storywise, who is supposed to be singing this song? like is this in the point of view of Annabel or is it someone saying to Annabel that they can go back in time and fix things? if so, who is this person and why can he go through time?

[@RsBanez]

Annabel. Based on the lyrics, I can say that the Artist is still alive but dying in this song, that's why there are some parts where it seems it's his point of view.

[@cameronobrien17]

Megamarod ok that makes sense. so are they both going through time? this is confusing I really need to buy the CD to get the booklet haha

[@RsBanez]

Cameron O'Brien​ The story is not in the album, it will be uploaded online soon (hopefully). But no, I don't think they're travelling together, I'm pretty sure the story is gonna be Annabel travelling to the past to get back the Artist and stop him from going insane, and based on the album lyrics, he seems to die in the second song of the album, The Acolyte.

[@cameronobrien17]

Megamarod oh really? are you sure? and yeah I thought it was just Annabel when I read the lyrics but it is confusing. I hope they upload the story soon

[@karens636]

*u*

[@radis966]

ня.пока

[@bilusito420]

im here because of the same reason

[@quashadbackus1666]

A song fit for a sadistic love seeking serial killer.

[@harrystevens355]

Check this band out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2W1po2Er9KoiLc&feature=share&fbclid=IwAR3IouAhwgz7CqxiizTTmFqsFAwtZKqrLpInbESm1KnTWuuJ7559ECacU7w

[@Bozzyshy]

Was quite disappointed with this album, this song is amazing but most of the rest of the album is a little dull compared to the rest of their stuff previously

[@mr.meeseeks7374]

I think they tried too hard on this album. :/ is good but it's not their best.
