LYRICS:
I’m having trouble breathing
And if I don’t think fast I’m likely to find myself here for good
Panic sets in as I start to question
Why I see you standing there beyond the glass...
Who said that we never would touch the speed of light?
So far behind me, understanding
Stars become rivers flowing backwards, oh yea!
When did my heartbeat start to echo?
Why are my thoughts now fading, drifting, yea!
Twisting, yea! tearing, yea! bleeding , yea!
Excuse me, are you a maniac?
I am and I’m okay with that
My moon, my stars,
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I’m terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything
An endless maze, a mobiüs labyrinth
Exodus, redemption, where have you gone!
And yet your gaze will not cease to burn into me!
So far removed, so mockingly you observe
Pariah, hypocrite! I will be free!
And yet you will remain
Excuse me, are you a maniac?
I am and I’m okay with that
My moon, my stars,
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I’m terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything, goodbye my everything
No!
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No!
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design
Don’t go back, don’t leave me
Hide from the world, let’s not exist
Please God kill me!
Time is mocking me and now I’m fighting gravity, yea
I’m destroying me, colliding worlds will set you free
A straight line is not the shortest distance between two points!
I know that now! But I’m afraid it might be too late!
Will we come back from this?
Hold my hand, I’m blind!
Show me how, I’m lost!
My God it’s beautiful
The portal opens, time is slowing, no turning back now, ‘Bel
My moon, my stars,
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I’m terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything, goodbye my everything
No!
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No!
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design
This band is the only band I can honestly say doesn't have a bad song. They are masters of their art, lyrically and musically.
same, eternal love for this guys
Megan Campbell Dance Gavin Dance
the importance of cocaine
I'm gonna have to disagree on that one. They are definitely not the only one. Expand your music horizons.
Well, This is my opinion. Between this band, Senses Fail and Crown The Empire. I can always find at least ONE song I can't stand within a band's discography.
The Shakespeare of post-hardcore!
Omg so true. XD ♥
The Poe of post-hardcore!*
Raymond Moreno *poet...and you are perfectly right.
Jong-Jong Slownely No no. Poe. Edgar Allen Poe that's what started the story between the albums. "The Emptiness", "A place where the sun is silent", and then "Confessions" It all started with Annabel! Annabel Lee!!! A poem by Poe!
Raymond Moreno Oh, I see. Thanks for the information brother!
Alesana is beauty
Alesana is grace
Alesana puts a smile
On my face

MEW MEW POWER
I love this song. It's a nice indication of how climactic "Confessions" is going to be. It's a very frantic song, very panicked, which is something that fits well with the Artists's character (he's already crazy; I would think time travel would be trying for anyone). I've noticed a few comments mentioning that Alesana sounds "generic" with this song, and while I respect those opinions I have to say this: considering everything that Alesana has put out, considering the quality of their storytelling abilities and the fact that they have managed to complete an entire trilogy, I would give Shawn and Patrick a bit more credit where the composition comes into play. Yes there are breakdowns and yes it's definitely a different tuning than "The Emptiness" and "A Place Where the Sun is Silent" but the breakdowns are employed in a very precise manner (not liberally like most bands nowadays in this genre) and the heavier tuning fits well with the tone of the story. I don't see Alesana as one of those bands who are trying to "fit in"; they seem to be doing pretty well fitting out. Credit where credit is due; respect each other's opinions; and PMA.
Thank you.
couldn't have said it better myself. :D
Dude your opinion is on point! The people who really listen and know Alesana will understand what your saying!
Josh Pellett Exactly. Fans who have listened to their music from the very start and read or listened to interviews that Alesana has done will understand how dedicated they are to their craft, hence Shawn starting his own record label. A lot of people have complained that it took almost 4 years for the ending of the trilogy to get here, but I honestly think it was for the best. As a fiction writer, it's the same thing: you wouldn't rush something to appease the masses; you want to take your time to write the best thing possible.
You know that this takes place after The Emptiness which is where the Artist gets killed by Annabel, right?
So the Artist is not in this...
i used to be obsessed with this band as a child and it might happen again ...
the feels
Same here
Yaaaaha me too
Alesana are the best in the 🌎🌍🌏
Stay tuned! We have exciting things to announce for Alesana today!
In the world? They are the best in the f*** universe!
I hardly ever listen to this genre of music,
But damn,
This is fucking amazing.
Darkstar 暗スター Welcome to greatness
Emily Hubbard Yes I will be here forever ^____^
The end of this song,, to me, seems to be spitting out some strong over-tones, I mean a precise message or warning...like they know more than they are telling. Just art and the artist, I guess, where walking a razors edge, is like a fine line where one side is completely absorbible, relateable, and the other side bounces off of us like a flubber ball. I enjoyed this.
seeDiersoil crossrowds Yeah, that's why Alesana is awesome. Their lyrics are good, but the use of instruments is amazing.
Darkstar 暗スター man if u are new here and you like it... damn you gotta learn fast :DD
why this band so underated ? -.-
They're from my home state, North Carolina, and everything in NC is underrated sadly
well they are not underated :3
@@SLIM3DM Now they are
@@bojes3467 Well they are on a Hiatus apparently
They were extremely popular in the scene a decade ago.
Wife heard the "nice" part of the song and then all of a sudden "omg what the hell are you listening to" I nearly died laughing
Lol. Which nice part? The chorus or the beginning?
I don't get why people hate on breakdowns so much. That's part of this damn genre and always will be. When bands change and get more main stream because they stop screaming and doing breakdowns all y'all hate on that too. It don't make sense. I like this. I love how Alesana still bring those old school cool kinda lows and melodies. Good stuff
It just gets repetitive after a while. A lot of the newer post hardcore/metalcore bands have been doing this, sometimes I just miss the variety.
***** The reason is very simple. They are extremely over done and very easy to pull off.
Now breakdowns are expected within this genre and there aren't many bands that do it creatively or effectively these days.
With that being said I thought the breakdown here was neat, with the piano strokes thrown in.
But it does get really old when every band ever has verse/chorus/breakdown/verse etc.
The thing about Alesana is that they set themselves apart from other bands with the uniqueness of each song they write. Their breakdowns aren't generic-sounding like a lot of post hardcore bands, and that's what's amazing about them.
It is one way of being "lazy"...instead of putting breakdowns, why not incorporate guitar solos instead? Because solos are harder and takes more time to write, considering there are millions of other guitar solos out there..."breakdowns" are just a "safe" and "easy" route...
Breakdowns of this genre are the like bridge to a worship song! Almost as iconic as solos! I LOVE them. They always give so much of an epic feel. I thought everyone loved breakdowns.
Hard to believe I'm this old. I remember jamming out to this as a teen to early 20s lol 😆
Best example of metalcore as a genre
Oh, Alesana, you never disappoint.
2020 alesana still joss of their music 😍😘
Bang billy emange alesana ngeluarin album baru ditahun 2020
joss? wtf
2020 almost 2021💞
2021
2021
Damn, these guys just keep getting better and better. Should have never stopped listening to them... Fuck, they are so great. Been my favorite band since I was 15.
I partially agree. I never should've stopped listening to them. However, in my opinion, they will never be better than when they created The Emptiness. I love all their music but DAMN that was (and still is) the most flawless musical album I've ever encountered in my life, second only to Pink Floyds' The Dark Side of The Moon.
Kunn0ichiL3g3nd im agree. !
This song is exactly what i was hoping for; the perfect blend of screams and clean vocals. This is Alesana, and what the majority of people love about them.
Mucha gente piensa que son gritos pero para mí está canción me hace sentirme en una zona de confort muy rica
So stoke for confessions, there's a difference between this song, the emptiness and APWTSIS. Yet you can tell that this is still Alesana
I remember when I went and saw these guys back before their third album. One of the greatest concerts I've ever been too. I hugged Dennis and got Shawn's autograph. :3
I'm here, until now I still listen to music from alesana. always waiting for them to come back.. 🙏
This is honestly a timeless song. And a band that has exsisted beyond all the hardcore trends.
Something I find really impressive about Alesana is that Dennis has been screaming for years and he has not blown out his vocal cords like half the bands in the scene. He still sounds amazing with each record they release in my opinion! I can't wait for the release!
This band is the only band I can honestly say doesn't have a bad song. They are masters of their art, lyrically and musically.
LOL
"I AGREE WITH THAT"
SHAWN, YOU ARE the best vocalist I HAVE EVER HEARD
Alesana is getting me through grad school. One of my favorite bands.
5 años después, aquí estamos :)
Those unclean vocals are so fucking good.
I don't know who you're.. but I agree! OMFG.
Yea Shane and Dennis have gotten a lot better sounding. Well mostly Dennis , Shane has always been a solid screamer
Grave Bodybag
Shawn*
David Ortega
Shane (the Bassist) does screams too, he's the one alternating with Dennis during the middle/end sections
David Ortega No, I think he really means Shane. Shawn barely screams, although every time he does, it sounds better.
I have followed this group since 2002 and still are the best who were still missing and have this new album still continue admiring are the best follow if the master alesana
Correct me if I'm wrong.
But I am pretty sure that Alesana started to make music at 2004. Not sure though. :/
But 2002?
No puedo creer que ya pasaron 5 años desde el lanzamiento de esta canción! Dios, si aún puedo recordar lo emocionado que estaba semanas antes de que se publicara.
Hoy solo vine a ponerme nostálgico :")
aun recuerdo cuando esta canción llevaba un día de subida y yo la había escuchado como tres mil veces xD
ALESANA Eres La Mejor ♡
Si esta muy buena la rola
Hahahaha yo igual xD
One final you kiss
para tu informacion son hombres jaja ... seria " Son la mejor banda ! "
@@GRFLP A eso se referia, "eres la major banda" idk, eso interprete yo.
Alesana will never die
10 years and still going strong, fuck yeah keep hitting us all in the feels Alesana!!! :D
Yaaas
I have come across so many metalcore/hardcore/softcore bands and most of them sounds like punk teens jamming in their own garage and I got bored listening to them after a while. But Alesana's songs have so much meaning and maturity that even after 5 years, I am still listening to them, and still am impressed with their work. This is one of the bands where I can say, "I love Alesana Forever" and actually meant it.
I wish more bands would make a complex story like this instead of individual songs
Alesana is one of the only bands that I can say has never writen anything less than great. Each song pulls me in. They have never disappointed me with their work. Which is the reason they are my favorite band. I love this song.
i confess that when i listened this song for first time, i thinked that new album would only have "breakdown", but alesana is alesana. beatiful music and incredible album. love this band
I grew out of these guys years ago... but those low vocals are still insane.
Just listened to it for at least the 15th time and it still gives me chills. The story is just so intense, its honestly like watching the climax of all the hunger games movies. Every member of the band keeps improving and I love how hard all 3 vocalists go. I can't wait for the full album. I wish more people heard this amazing band. They are honestly the most underrated band there is.
This. It needs to be on Spotify. Now.
Please.
Alesana - the Shakespeare of Metal!
I don't care the genre or whatever, this song is good. Can't wait for the new album
I have loved this band for so long. And even though I go through spells of not listening to them much, one taste again and I'm drawn back into my obsession.
God damn this song is almost 10 years old? I remember playing it nonstop when it came out.
Aaaaah, so nice to hear them again. I'm going to go on an Alesana music binge now, because this song is just so fucking awesome.
Alesana and BMTH never fail... I even listened to trap shit and still come back everytime
I was looking for a band that was like Bring Me the Horizon, because I needed to listen to more bands. And then I found this one.
fr
..not suicide season?
Benelli Gigante si,estaria bien BMTH si a oliver no se le hubiera ido la voz
That breakdown at the beginning made my earbuds fall out of my ears because of how hard I was headbanging. Great way to open a song
alesana song makes my problem go away tears won't run on my eyes💓💓💕💖💗
I really wish you guys would play somewhere close to South New Jersey. I have a 10 year old and 3 year old that absolutely love you guys and I'd personally love if you were their first concert experience. I only got to see you guys live once when you were at Hangar 84 in Vineland NJ a few years ago and just want my little guys to see you live as well. My wife, my boys and myself throughly love this band and look forward to every album and will continue to support you as long as you're making music!
This band has saved my life more than they could imagaine. Ready to meet Shawn next Wedensday on the 22 at the Aftershock!!!!!!!!
This lyric video is just amazing!
And lyrics, astonishing as always :D
Now that I know the words I can say this is a beautiful piece of art.. I'm so stoked about this new album!
this is thee gold of post-hardcore metal
lows
highs
softs
creepy sound
EVERYTHING
I'm fan from Thailand. Thank all of you guy who create this song. This song is so amazing and now I addicted to this song.
I would love to see Jeremy Tollas from Famous last Words and Shawn and Dennis Collab in a album, both lyrical geniuses
Essa Música é um ícone. 💙💙🤍
It's almost 2022 and I still love this song!
Alesana forever
Alesana always bring an unique material in their new album. And something unfamiliar will mostly get a negative response. I'm a big fan from Indonesia, but honestly I never liked their new songs when I heard it for the first time. But once I listen to it over and over again, I'm starting to get this new perspective about how they express their self in the album or what kind of emotion that they are trying to tell. That process is always enjoyable for me, very stoked for the new album.
Yeees. First two times listening this song for example, I didnt like it. Third time I regonized its good. 4. I regonized its maaagic!!! Then my absolutely favourite song for months xD (& with lunatics lament was the same.). Woaah I love alesana soo .. eeehh.. we in germany say "KRASS" XD XD
Alesana is a master of lyrics! They are true screamo artists! Long live Alesana!!
Man, whoever did that dialogue part of the song has such a good voice. Perfect with emotion. Well done Alesana.
This is what would happen if Coheed and Cambria was WAY harder hitting.
I aint mad. Good work Alesana
Damn this band is one of a kind. Now to find a friend who also enjoys.
Dear Alesana, We need Music Videos. Take Note, "music" "Videos". Kind of like Ambrosia or The thespian kind of vibe. :D Thanks. Best regards. -Random Fan
+Noel Cervantes Are you sure?
Oh :( and i keep waiting for the end of the trilogy
Omg great ❤
I've been listening to this band for 8 years now. And every time when I think they're done they prove me wrong. There's a reason why so many good bands have disbanded and Alesana is still here. Great song guys
It has been five years now since I have listened to their masterpiece, "The Emptiness" and I am completely impressed by the evolution of their sound and how they improved upon their lyrics. I didn't even know such a thing was possible.
One of their best songs yet, in my opinion. It's up in my top 5 for sure!
I love how they're pushing their unique sound to the more hardcore side again. And the screams sound a lot better now. I'm definitely excited for the new album!
im in love with this fucking song cant stop replaying it
this is so interesting to me because he's describing his self-destruction as being liberating and also it's really nice to hear from them, it's been too long!!
awesome song. feels like they have more musical freedom to get the sound they want now with their own record.
Aqui estou mais uma vez após 6 anos sem ouvir a banda.
Best part : "Turning back now bel'" anyone else get ridiculously excited!!!
This album is currently on repeat! Damn...this is so good!!!
THEY NEVER DISAPPOINT
LYRICS:
I’m having trouble breathing
And if I don’t think fast I’m likely to find myself here for good
Panic sets in as I start to question
Why I see you standing there beyond the glass...
Who said that we never would touch the speed of light?
So far behind me, understanding
Stars become rivers flowing backwards, oh yea!
When did my heartbeat start to echo?
Why are my thoughts now fading, drifting, yea!
Twisting, yea! tearing, yea! bleeding , yea!
Excuse me, are you a maniac?
I am and I’m okay with that
My moon, my stars,
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I’m terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything
An endless maze, a mobiüs labyrinth
Exodus, redemption, where have you gone!
And yet your gaze will not cease to burn into me!
So far removed, so mockingly you observe
Pariah, hypocrite! I will be free!
And yet you will remain
Excuse me, are you a maniac?
I am and I’m okay with that
My moon, my stars,
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I’m terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything, goodbye my everything
No!
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No!
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design
Don’t go back, don’t leave me
Hide from the world, let’s not exist
Please God kill me!
Time is mocking me and now I’m fighting gravity, yea
I’m destroying me, colliding worlds will set you free
A straight line is not the shortest distance between two points!
I know that now! But I’m afraid it might be too late!
Will we come back from this?
Hold my hand, I’m blind!
Show me how, I’m lost!
My God it’s beautiful
The portal opens, time is slowing, no turning back now, ‘Bel
My moon, my stars,
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I’m terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything, goodbye my everything
No!
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No!
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design
I'm a fan of this band since 2006! This band never disappoint me.
Alesana is a really awesome band ! Thier the type of band where you have to listen to thier music a couple times to catch the flow. They have their own style , I don't think they have to fit in with anything. They just play and sing whatever they want which is awesome cause all of they're melody beats and singing are awesome! I have been waiting for a long time for this album ! Chapter 1 and 2 are so epic!and so is this chapter!! I love this album ! Good job Alesana ! Badass! You had us waiting but it was freaken worth it !!
The ending is paramount. So far based on this song I think the ending to the trilogy will be wonderful :D
2021, 28 de janeiro, a exatos 00:04 hrs, ouvindo essa melodia melancólica e adorável 🖤😍
alesana is life... the light and the dark... together...

No puedo parar de escuchar esta canción
Tenés que apretar donde dice "pausa"
Who else is screaming besides Shawn, Dennis, and Shane? One of those screams doesn't sound like the other members! -> 03:15
Shawn is doing those screams "behind so many walls"
"One of these things is not like the other"
Ghost Killer Entertainment It somewhat sounds like Jeffrey from Capture The Crown
It sound like its patrick but i could be wrong
Hey I'm always seeing you posting videos all over Facebook and they're quite funny tbh, who are you?
Favorite song from them at the moment. This song is just so epic. No other words, just epic-ness in its rawest form.
My Last years ( My band) Miss you Alesana come back to GA so we can do another concert together (:
Alesana sempre fazendo músicas boas amoooooo 🇧🇷
yeah I really really love alesana
we really really love your support
Lee never fail to lift my body hair. Those lows are great. So excited to hear the other tracks. those last lines in chorus made me ask for more :3 nice job alesana... got no regrets for having you my best band :)
From their first album to their most recent album, Alesana never seems to fail. They've been one of my favourite bands for a while now, I never get tired of these guys.
~ Simplemente hermosa, los sigo escuchando en pleno 2020 en tiempos de cuarentena c':
