Ambrosia Lyrics - On Frail Wings Of Vanity And Wax - Alesana

A touch of poison seals my fate 

The dawn echoes the night with my glory 

The sun himself honors me 

Once king of roses, now lord of gold 

The gods themselves envy my hand 

Blessed with the gift of gilded touch 

Fate wields its knife to cut the thread 

I curse the day my dream became my descent 

Suddenly I long for you, my only love 

In my perfection I have no want 

Yet eyes still glint with greed untold 

A folly as fatal as sin has now become the end of me 

I curse the day my dream became my descent 

Suddenly I long for you, my only love 

Have I not earned this, the gift of beauty within? 

How selfish were the gods to keep their riches from my rightful treasure 

I truly have become one of them, my fatal flaw 

Oh yeah, I've got her hook, line and sinker 

Thanks to me, she's her own new necklace 

Now she's good as gold 

I curse the day my dream became my descent 

Suddenly I long for you, my only love 

Cut the thread
