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
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
The lyrics THE GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT of AFI is also present in the album Sing the sorrow (2003)
AFI (acronimo di A Fire Inside) è una band punk rock statunitense formatasi in California nel 1991. I membri fondatori sono il vocalist Davey Havoc, il chitarrista Mark Stopholese, il batterista Adam Carson e il bassista Vic Chalker, che fu poi sostituito da Geoff Kresge e successivamente da Hunter Burgan. AFI ha attraversato diverse fasi musicali, iniziando con un sound hardcore punk per poi evolvere verso sonorità più dark e melodrammatiche influenzate dal gothic rock e dall'industrial. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Miss Murder", "The Leaving Song Pt. II" e "Silver and Cold". L'album *Sing the Sorrow* (2003) è considerato uno dei loro lavori più importanti, grazie al successo di singoli come "Girl's Not Grey" e "Death of Seasons".
