Album - Evanescence EP :


"Where Will You Go"
You're too important for anyone
There's something wrong with everything you see
But I, I know who you really are
You're the one who cries when you're alone
Where will you go
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can't escape
You don't want to escape
However did you manage to push away
From every living thing you've come across
So afraid that anyone will hate you
You pretend you hate them first
Where will you go
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can't escape the truth
I realize you're afraid
But you can't refrain from everything
You cant' escape
You can't escape
I'm so sick of speaking words that no one understands
Is it clear enough that you can't live your whole life all alone
I can hear you when you whisper But you can't even hear me screaming
And where will you go
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can't escape the truth
I realize your're afraid
But you can't reject the whole world
You can't escape
You won't escape
You can't escape
You don't want to escape

"Solitude"
2, 3, 4
How many times have you told me you love her?
As many times as I wanted to tell you the truth.
How long have I stood here beside you?
I lived through you, you looked through me.
Oh, Solitude
Still with me is only you
Oh, Solitude
I can't stay away from you
How many times have I done this to myself?
How long will it take before I see?
When will this hole in my heart be mended?
Who now is left alone but me?
Oh, Solitude
Forever me and forever you
Oh, Solitude
Only you, only true
Everyone leaves me stranded,
Forgotten, abandoned, left behind.
I can't stay here another night.
Your secret admirer, who could it be?
Can't you see all along it was me?
How can you be so blind as to see right through me?
Solitude
Still with me is only you
Oh, Solitude
I can't stay away from you
Solitude
Forever me and forever you
Oh, Solitude
Only you, only true

"Imaginary"
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming
The goddess of imagnary light
In my field of paper flowers
And candy cloulds of lullabies
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me
I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clocks screaming monsters
Calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story
If you need to leave the world you live in
Lay your head down and stay a while
Though you may not remember dreaming
Something waits for you to breathe again

"Exodus"
My black backpack stuffed with broken dreams
Twenty bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
Thought it a thousand times but now
I'm leaving home
Here in the shadows
I'm safe, I'm free
I've nowhere else to go
But I cannot stay where I don't belong
Two months pass by and it's getting cold
I know I'm not lost I'm just alone
But I won't cry, I won't give up, I can't go back now
Waking up is knowing who you really are
Here in the shadows
I'm safe, I'm free
I've nowhere else to go
But I cannot stay where I don't belong
In the shadows
I'm safe, I'm free
I've nowhere else to go
But I cannot stay here
Oh, show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes.

"So Close"
I've spent so much time throwing rocks at your window
That I never even knocked on the front door
I walk by statues, never even made one chip
But if I could leave a mark on the monument of the heart
I just might lay myself down for a little more than I had the last day
Wait a time to spare these lies we tell ourselves
These days have come and gone
But this time is sweeter than honey

"Understanding"
You hold the answer deep within your own mind. Consciously you've forgotten it. That's the way the human mind words. Whenver something is too unpleasant, too shameful for us to entertain we reject it, we erase it from our memory, but the imprint is always there.
We wash it all away
We wish it all away
We hope it all away
Can't cry it all away
The pain that grips you
The fear that binds you
Releases life in me
In our mutual shame we hide our eyes
To blind them from the truth that finds a way to who we are
Please don't be afraid
When the darkness fades away
The dawn will break the silence screaming at our hearts
My love for you still grows
This I do for you
Before I try to fight the truth my final time
We're supposed to try to be real. We feel alone when we're not together, and that is real.
Can't wash it all away
Can't wish it all away
Can't cry it all away
Can't scratch it all away
Lying beside you
Listening to you breathe
The light that flows inside of you, burns inside of me
Hold and speak to me
Of love without a sound
Tell me you will live through this and I will die for you
Cast me not away
Say you'll be with me
For I know I cannot bear it all alone
You're not alone, honey, Never. Never.
Can't fight it all away
Can't hope it all away
Can't scream it all away
It just won't fade away
Can't wash it all away
Can't wish it all away
Can't throw it all away
Can't scratch it all away
Can't fight it all away
Can't hope it all away
Can't scream it all away
But the imprint is always there, nothing is ever really forgotten.
Because I'm dying too
Because I'm dying too
Because I'm dying too
Because I'm dying too
Because I'm dying too


Album - Fallen :


"Going Under"
Now I will tell you what I've done for you
50 thousand tears I've cried
Screaming,deceiving,and bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom
I'm dying again
I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through
I'm going under
Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
So I don't know what's real and what's not
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore
I'm dying again
I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through
So go on and scream
Scream at me,I'm so far away
I won't be broken again
I've got to breathe,I can't keep going under

"Bring Me To Life"
How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your touch,without your love
Darling only you are the life among the dead
All of this sight
I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark
But you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
I've got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought
Without a voice
Without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

"Everybody's Fool"
Perfect by nature
Icons of self indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that
Never was and never will be
Have you no shame, don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooled
Look here she comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh how we love you
No flaws when you're pretending
But now I know she
Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled
Without the mask where will you hide?
Can't find yourself lost in your lie
I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don't love you anymore
It never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool

"My Immortal"
I'm so tired of being here
Supressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Because your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along...

"Haunted"
Long, lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there
Watching me, wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you, loving you
I won't let you pull me down
Hunting you I can smell you, alive
Your heart pounding in my head
Watching me, wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Saving me, raping me
Watching me

"Tourniquet"
I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more
I lay dying
And I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal
I'm dying, praying, bleeding, and screaming
Am I too lost to be saved
Am I too lost?
My god, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My god, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
Do you remember me?
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side?
Or will you forget me?
I'm dying, praying, bleeding, and screaming
Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?
My god, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My god, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied Christ?
Tourniquet
My Suicide
