Send "Kiss of Dawn" Ringtone to Cell

Blinded I am
And so are you
By shedding tears
Confusion that separates us two
We hold dear

Just look into my eyes
Kiss our fears goodbye

I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain that you left me with
At the kiss of dawn

I'm tired of the games
I'm playing with you
When you're not here
Death frees from the fear of dying
It's true, have no fear

Let me look into your eyes
And see death pass us by

I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain you left me with
At the kiss of dawn

I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain you left me with
At the kiss of dawn

I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn

    General Comment:Yes Ville did write this for a friend that commited suicide. We share that same friend. He also dedicated each performance of this song to Dustin during the Projekt Revolution tour.

    General Comment:From an Interveiw:

    "Valo penned one song, "The Kiss Of Dawn," for a close friend who committed suicide soon after the band wrapped the recording sessions for Dark Light.

    "It's been a tough year," Valo said with a sigh. "I'm not complaining at all. But I've had really sh---y things happen to me in my life, so this is definitely the darkest album we've done, lyrically. It's also a celebration of life. It's about remembering the ones you loved with a smile rather than being all dark and brooding and having hair in your face and trying to be Robert Smith from the Cure."

    General Comment:i'd say the best song of the new album is venus doom. it's really amazing.

    i have the full songs for passion's killing floor and kiss of dawn (lmao, who doesn't) and a demo of kiss of dawn, and clips of venus doom, cyanide sun, love in cold blood, and bleed well... and a live version of dead lovers lane. if anyone wants them, hit me up on AIM- the screen name is 'LLL4UR3N'
