No one ever said that life was fair and I'm not saying that it should be
So knowing that you are where you want to be and I'm not comes as no surprise
But don't expect me to be happy for you
And don't smile at me and tell me things will work out for me too
I don't want your pity, I hate your pity
Taste your vanity'
Its sweet bitterness as you hide behind your veil of my stolen hopes and lost dreams
You took them all'
I watched you steal my thoughts and had to see you smile
As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy
Beg me to make this easier and listen to my hopeless cries
Suffer alone in emptiness
I lust to see you swallowed by the mess that you left in your wake
Disgust lies deep within your empty gaze'
Beg me to make this easier and listen as my hopeless cries
Send stares into your meaningless eyes
My envy can't describe how I loathe you for having all the stars
Leaving my eyes to marvel the sky knowing it should be mine
Yet it's you I see wasting the dream that only I deserve
I'll tear off your face to see your smile
As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy
So knowing that you are where you want to be and I'm not comes as no surprise
But don't expect me to be happy for you
And don't smile at me and tell me things will work out for me too
I don't want your pity, I hate your pity
Taste your vanity'
Its sweet bitterness as you hide behind your veil of my stolen hopes and lost dreams
You took them all'
I watched you steal my thoughts and had to see you smile
As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy
Beg me to make this easier and listen to my hopeless cries
Suffer alone in emptiness
I lust to see you swallowed by the mess that you left in your wake
Disgust lies deep within your empty gaze'
Beg me to make this easier and listen as my hopeless cries
Send stares into your meaningless eyes
My envy can't describe how I loathe you for having all the stars
Leaving my eyes to marvel the sky knowing it should be mine
Yet it's you I see wasting the dream that only I deserve
I'll tear off your face to see your smile
As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy

"As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes. I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy" And I think this shows that he now hates they day the drew lots and now wants nothing but tragedy to happen to Zeus :p also "Suffer alone in emptiness" The underworld is pretty empty from life and he gets to only see Persephone for four months(or three I can't remember) And why do these always have to be about relationships to some people =_= I mean seriously
I've always felt as all music has their own personal meaning to a person itself.
You could say this song was about a flying turtle, or something.
I, personally, see it as a break up.
"No one ever said that life was fair, and i'm not saying that it should be.
So knowing that you are where you want to be, and i'm not comes as no suprise.
But don't expect me to be happy for you and don't smile at me and tell me things will work out for me too."
I see that as the girl breaks up with this guy, finds another guy, and she is telling him that she will find someone too, but hes telling her he doesn't wanna hear it, and that hes not gonna be happy for her.
I can totally relate to that, because i feel the same way about my ex boyfriend.
"Taste your vanity and its sweet bitterness, as you hide behind your veil of my stolen hopes and lost dreams,I watched you steal my thoughts and had to see you smile ..You took them all..."
He has to watch her be happy, but all he can think about her.
"As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes, I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy."
Shes doing the things he wished they were doing, and all he can think about is how things used to be between them.
Suffer alone in emptiness
"I lust to see you swallowed by the mess that you left in your wake, disgust lies deep within your empty gaze"He wants to see her hurt, like he is, and he wants to see her come back only to tell her no, and cause the same pain she caused him.
Just the way i saw it. :)
By building her dreams on his shattered hopes, she left him for this new guy of her's...and "looking back on a day once loved"...he wishes that all the good times he had with her never happened...that they had broken up sooner.
I feel that way mostly because, well, same thing happened to me. My ex and I broke up in the worst way possible...I was left for someone else...now I wish I could go back and erase all of our amazing times and make it so that it was terrible from the get go.
These guys rock! These guys are great, I can relate to a lot of what
They sing about. Women are such succubuses!
So it would make sense that this song is also based on something, and it would be awesome if someone could give any info :D
