The Great Disappointment Lyrics

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

I never, never wanted this

How could I have become?

I never, never wanted this

But from the start I'd been deceived

I never, never wanted this

How could I have become?

I never, never wanted this

I always wanted to believe

I never, never wanted this

I never, never wanted this

But from the start I'd been deceived

I 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
