Lyrics:

Wake up... Wake up... Wake up...

My eyes open wide as I wake, panting, some say that dreams have deeper meaning.
That they are cries from our subconscious.
I feel strangely compelled to recount this one to my love,
My Annabel, shaking her gently, I wonder why her flesh has the chill of virgin snow.
My thoughts are disrupted as reality hits me like a bolt of lightning and I scream.

We are the crucified, we are the virtuous, we are the damned.
We are the crucified, this is our nightmare, let's pray we never fall asleep.

Imprisoned beneath the world where the soulless dwell.
Lies a place that the damned call home.
A place where the virtuous hide in fear.
A place we see only in our nightmares.
A place where the sun is silent.

@Mykal82000 You're kind of wrong dude... it's more like the sequel and prequel. The whole story is him, after annabel kills him, going to hell slowly realizing everything about himself and his love for her. Him waking up to her dead, and showing an endless loop.

I can understand how people are getting things all confused, but does it matter? As long as it makes sense to you, and you like it, what else is important? Yes, this song mentions Annabel which is decieving, but these albums are seperate. The Emptiness which Shawn wrote, A Place Where The Sun Is Silent, epic poem ,Inferno, written by Dante. Again, who cares? This album is fucking delecious so is The Emptiness so is Where Myth Fades To Legend, and same with On Frail Wings Of Vanity and Wax!

[SpardaAsksEmilie]

you guys are idiot. The Emptiness is from Edgar Allan Poe's poem ""Annabel Lee". And a place where the sun is silent is from Inferno by Dante. They're completely different !

Imprisoned beneath the world where the soulless dwell.

Lies a place that the damned call home.

A place where the virtuous hide in fear.

A place we see only in our nightmares.

A place where the sun is silent. <3

epicness \m/

Listen to the entire album from beginning to end, and tell me the last 8 words don't give you the chills

@xWiggleDeezRoots It is hell. The whole album APWTSIS is based off of Dante's Inferno, which is a story about a man's journey through all the circles of hell. If you read the Sparknote for the book, then look at the lyrics to all the songs, the album will make a lot more sense.

Bum! Shakala! XD

[Anayabe]

[xWiggleDeezRoots]

Is the place where the sun is silent hell in a way?

[Rupp101]

@VandersonStudios Ummm your both wrong, If you look up some interviews he says this album is about dantes inferno with kinda mixed with the annabel, idk thats just what ive heard in intreviews..
