Afi (afi) The Great Disappointment Lyrics

The Great Disappointment Lyrics

I can remember, a place I used to go.

Chrysanthemums of white

They seemed so beautiful.

I can remember, I searched for the amaranth.

I'd shut my eyes, to see.



Oh how I smiled then, so near the cherished ones.

I knew they would appear, saw not a single one.

Oh how I smiled then, waiting so patiently.

I'd make a wish and bleed.



While I waited, I was wasting away

While I waited, I was wasting away



I can remember...dreamt them so vividly

Soft creatures draped in white, light kisses gracing me

I can remember when I first realized dreams were the only place to see
them.



While I waited, I was wasting away

While I waited, I was wasting away

While I waited, I was wasting away



Hope was wasting away.

Faith was wasting away.

I was wasting away.



I never, never wanted this.

I always wanted to believe.

Never never wanted this.

I could not help because.

Never Never wanted this.

From the start I'd been deceived.

Never never wanted this.

I could not help because. 



I never, never wanted this.

I always wanted to believe.

Never never wanted this.

Never Never wanted this.

From the start I'd been deceived.

Never never wanted this.



Inside a crumbling effigy

(But you promised)

So dies all innocence

(But you promised me)



While I waited, I was wasting away

While I waited, I was wasting away

While I waited, I was wasting away



Hope was wasting away.

Faith was wasting away.

I was wasting away.
