Letras: Evanescence EP

*Evanescence Ep *

1. 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

2. Solitude

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.

Ooo, Solitude
Still with me is only you
Ooo, 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?

Ooo, Solitude
Forever me and forever you
Ooo, Solitude
Only you, Only true

Everyone leaves me stranded,
forgotten, abandoned
left behind.
I can't stay her another night

Your secret admirer, who could it be?

Can't you 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
Ooo, solitude
I can't stay away from you

Solitude
Forever me and forever you
Ooo, Solitude
Only you, Only true

3. 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

5. 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.

6. 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

7. Understanding

"You hold the answer deep within your own mind.
Consciously you've forgotten it.
That's the way the human mind works.
Whenever 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
Oh, it all away
Oh, 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"
