The Third Temptation Of Paris
[Verse 1: Patrick Thompson, Melissa Milke, both, Shawn Milke]
The horizon, now as dark as the crimes that brought them here
Is filled with my impending dread
My foolish actions will cost so many good men
Achilles has come...
[Pre-Chorus: Melissa Milke and Shawn Milke, Adam Ferguson]
A thousand sails approaching
Sent here in her name to reclaim the one I stole
And destroy the walls of Troy
[Chorus: Shawn Milke, Melissa Milke, both, (Patrick Thompson)]
Desire (leaves me numb) to all the pain surrounding me (to all the pain surrounding me)
Storms will arise to condemn me
I will not die before her eyes...
It ends tonight
[Verse 2: Patrick Thompson, Melissa Milke, both, Shawn Milke]
Tragically I now must accept the penance I have earned
She is cursed and tonight we die
In the dawn of this, my end, I hold my sword true
I must let her go...
[Pre-Chorus: Melissa Milke and Shawn Milke, Adam Ferguson]
A thousand sails approaching
Sent here in her name to reclaim the one I stole
And destroy the walls of Troy
[Chorus: Shawn Milke, Melissa Milke, both, (Patrick Thompson)]
Desire (leaves me numb) to all the pain surrounding me (to all the pain surrounding me)
Storms will arise to condemn me
I will not die before her eyes...
It ends tonight
[Bridge: Shawn Milke and Melissa Milke, (Patrick Thompson)]
It ends tonight (it ends tonight), I am alone
Pain fills her eyes, I am alone
[Outro: Shawn Milke, Melissa Milke, Patrick Thompson]
Sacred and profane is our love in death... (I must save my honor, I cannot let them win, the blood of many spills)
Sacred and profane is our love in death... (I must save my honor, I cannot let them win, the blood of many spills)
Sacred and profane is our love in death... (I must save my honor, I cannot let them win, the blood of many spills)
