| this is the best tiger army song ever, well.. other than 'never die'. this is a great interpretation of edgar allan poe's poem, but it does have a nice touch of tiger. | |

| Annabel lee It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of ANNABEL LEE; And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me. I was a child and she was a child, In this kingdom by the sea; But we loved with a love that was more than love- I and my Annabel Lee; With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven Coveted her and me. And this was the reason that, long ago, In this kingdom by the sea, A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling My beautiful Annabel Lee; So that her highborn kinsman came And bore her away from me, To shut her up in a sepulchre In this kingdom by the sea. The angels, not half so happy in heaven, Went envying her and me- Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know, In this kingdom by the sea) That the wind came out of the cloud by night, Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee. But our love it was stronger by far than the love Of those who were older than we- Of many far wiser than we- And neither the angels in heaven above, Nor the demons down under the sea, Can ever dissever my soul from the soul Of the beautiful Annabel Lee. For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride, In the sepulchre there by the sea, In her tomb by the sounding sea Edger Allen Poe this poem is crazy it was wrote late Poe it wasnt his crazy tale tell heart or the Raven or what not but it was a love poem about his late wife who had died 2 years prior to when the poem was wrote and i think if Edger Allen Poe was to hear this song he would like it because its his poem with the greatest band playing to it Peace | |

| I definately hear a pop punk element. It's a great interpretation of a classic poem. And Davey Havoc wasn't in Tiger Army. Maybe you're thinking of Adam Carson and Geoff Kresge? | |
