The End
Written
to Whisper (Sound Asleep EP version) by Evanescence
Death
in, Death in its most hideous form
The
monsters fell.
Catch
me as I fall
Say
you're here and it's all over now
She
fell too, calling his name.
Speaking
to the atmosphere
No
one's here and I fall into myself
The
vampire fell and the wolf too.
This
truth drives me
Into
madness
He ran
to her, screaming her name.
I know
I can stop the pain
If I
will it all away
Don't
turn away
(Don't
give in to the pain)
Don't
try to hide
(Though
they're screaming your name)
"Don’t
close your eyes! Damnit! Stay awake," he screamed to her.
Don't
close your eyes
(God
knows what lies behind them)
Don't
turn out the light
(Never
sleep never die)
She
opened her eyes.
I'm
frightened by what I see
Relief
flooded his face, replaced by a thought…
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
She
looked at him one last time.
Don't
turn away
(Don't
give in to the pain)
Her
eyes closed their final time. "Anita!" he screamed her name.
Don't
try to hide
(Though
they're screaming your name)
Don't
close your eyes
(God
knows what lies behind them)
Her
animating flame burned out…
Don't
turn out the light
…as she
slept that endless sleep.
(Never
sleep never die)
He
stood enraged.
Fallen
angels at my feet
Whispered
voices at my ear
Her
voice whispered to him, "Kill them all…"
Death
before my eyes
He fell
next to her.
Lying
next to me I fear
He
looked to her – one last time.
She beckons
me
Shall I
give in?
He
reached to her.
Upon my
end shall I begin?
Forsaking
all I've fallen for
He rose
to his feet once again.
I rise
to meet my end
Don't
turn away
(Don't
give in to 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 light
(Never
sleep never die)
