Where Myth Fades to Legend

Alesana's next album "Where Myth Fades to Legend" came around 2008. This album isn't like their first one, "On Frail Wings of Vanity and Wax." This album didn't really go along with Greek legends, but it still told a story. The order that they place their songs on their albums makes sense to where it seems like they go along with a story. My favorite song off of their album "Where Myth Fades to Legend" is As You Wish. This song is one of their softer songs. I figured I pick out one that doesn't have a lot of screaming that way others could relate more or enjoy their sound. This song kind of goes along with the tale of Romeo and Juliet. I hope you all enjoy. I'll post the lyrics underneath the video.

The lyrics to Alesana's As You Wish are:

Life is meaningless without you
Love can be such a beautiful torture
My heart breaks as I long for you
Love can be such lovely torture

I will climb the hills, draw my sword and take down
Anyone who tries to stand in front of me
Please know I'll never run away without you in my arms
One day lovers will dream of this undying kiss
Not of Romeo or Juliet
Stories told of our love will never die

I've slain the most unholy things, endured such terrific pain
Finally I'll feel your caress again
I've braved the cold and lonely seas, I have prevailed against the odds
Then again...

I will climb the hills, draw my sword and take down
Anyone who tries to stand in front of me
Please know I'll never run away without you in my arms
One day lovers will dream of this undying kiss
Not of Romeo or Juliet
Stories told of our love will never die

Will you forgive what I've done to give you four white horses?

One day lovers will dream of this undying kiss
Not of Romeo or Juliet
Stories told of our love will never die
