Evanescence - Fallen
Going Under
Now I will tell you what I've done for you
Fifty 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]
.............................So I don't know what's real and what's not
[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
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 sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and bring me 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
[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
Frozen inside, without your touch, without your love, Darling
Only you are the life among the dead
All this time, 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
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
[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
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 don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled
It never was and never will be
you're not real and you can't see
Somehow now your everybody's fool
My Immortal
I'm so tired of being here
Surpressed by all my childish fear
But if you have to leave, I wish that you that you would just leave
Cause your presence still lingers here and it wont 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've held your hands 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 left behind
Your face, it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice, it chased away all the sanity in me
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've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
And though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
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've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
All of me....all of me
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
Haunting 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
Watching me, wanting me
I can FEEL YOU PULL ME DOWN
Fearing you, loving you
I won't LET YOU PULL ME DOWN
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
Imaginary
[Paper flowers]
[Paper flowers]
I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
Let me stay, where the wind wil whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story
In my field of paper flowers
....[Paper flowers.........]
And candy clouds of lullaby
I'd lie inside myself for hours
....[Paper flowers................]
And watch my purple sky fly over me
Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos your reality
I know what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape
In my field of paper flowers
....[Paper flowers.........]
And candy clouds of lullaby
I'd lie inside myself for hours
....[Paper flowers................]
And watch my purple sky fly over me
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot sleep for the fear of silent nights
Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming
The Goddess of imaginary light
In my field of paper flowers
....[Paper flowers.........]
And candy clouds of lullaby
I'd lie inside myself for hours
....[Paper flowers................]
And watch my purple sky fly over me
[Paper flowers]
[Paper flowers]
Taking Over Me
You don't remember me but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream
And dream I do
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
TO live TO breathe,
You're taking over me
Have you forgotten all I know
And all we had
You saw me mourning my love for you and touched my hand
I knew you loved me then
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
TO live To breathe,
You're taking over me
I look in the mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
There's just so many things inside
That are just like you are taking over
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
TO live To breathe,
You're taking over me
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
TO live To breathe,
You're taking over me
Taking over me, you're taking over me [taking over me] taking over me
Hello
Playground school bell rings...again
Rain clouds come to play.......again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello, I am your mind giving you someone to talk to, hello?
If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll awake from this dream
Don't try to fix me I'm not broken
Hello, I am the light living for you so you can hide, don't cry
Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
hello, I'm still here all that's left of yesterday
My Last Breath
Hold on to me love
you know i cant stay long
all i wanted to say is i love you and im not afraid
can you hear me?
can you feel me in your arms?
hoding my last breath
safe inside myself
are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light
it ends here tonight
i'll miss the winter
a world of fragile things
look for me in the white forest hiding in a hollow tree
[come find me]
I know you hear me
i can taste it in your tears
hoding my last breath
safe inside myself
are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light
it ends here tonight
closing your eyes to disappear
you pray your dreams will lead you here
but still you wake and know the truth
no one's there
say goodnight
don't be afraid
calling me, calling me as you fade to black
[say goodnight]
.........holding my last breath
[don't be afraid]
.............safe in side myself
[Calling me, calling me]
.............are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light
it ends here tonight
[holding my last breath
safe inside myself
are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light
it ends here tonight]
Whipser
Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and its all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drives me into madness
I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away
If I will it all away
Don't turn away
[Don't give into the pain]
.................Don't try to hide [Though they're screaming your name]
......................................................................Don't close your eyes [God knows what lies behind them]
.................................................................................................................Don't turn out the lights [Never sleep, never die]
I'm frightened by what I see
But somehow I know that there's much more to come
Immobilized by my fear and soon to be blinded by tears
I can stop the pain if I will it all away
If I will it all away
Don't turn away
[Don't give into the pain]
.................Don't try to hide [Though they're screaming your name]
......................................................................Don't close your eyes [God knows what lies behind them]
.................................................................................................................Don't turn out the lights [Never sleep, never die]
Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices in my ears
Death before my eyes, lying next to me I fear
She beckons me shall I give in
Upon my end shall i begin
Forsaken all I've fallen for I rise to meet the end
Don't turn away
[Don't give into the pain]
..................Don't try to hide [Though they're screaming your name]
.......................................................................Don't close your eyes [God knows what lies behind them]
..................................................................................................................Don't turn out the lights [never sleep, never die]
Don't turn away
Don't try to hide
Don't close your eyes
Don't turn out the lights
Don't turn away
Don't try to hide
Don't close your eyes
Don't turn out the lights
