Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Bound at every limb by my shackles of fear
Sealed with lies through so many tears
Lost from within, pursuing the end
I fight for the chance to be lied to again

You will never be strong enough
You will never be good enough
You were never conceived in love
You will not rise above

[CHORUS:]
They'll never see
I'll never be
I'll struggle on and on to feed this hunger
Burning deep inside of me

But through my tears breaks a blinding light
Birthing a dawn to this endless night
Arms outstretched, awaiting me
An open embrace upon a bleeding tree

Rest in me and I'll comfort you
I have lived and I died for you
Abide in me and I vow to you
I will never forsake you

[Chorus]

Evanescence- Lies

What a beautiful song, short but still very beautiful...

Wow, I'm glad that some people were gushing on and on about this song so much that I just had to see it. It turns out to be a lot better than the pop-ularized songs from Evanescence like 'Bring Me to Life' and 'My Immortal' which most people seemed to like more. I never really cared THAT much about it though. But I just remembered one incident of when one little kid said that the song 'My Immortal' was about her 'grandpaw', yes, 'grandpaw' complete with a 'W' at the end. It's also kinda surprising that the more mushy songs are actually written by Ben Moody, one of the MALE co-founder and the now ex band member who's currently helping people like Avril Lavigne and Kelly Clarkson.
