Evanescence : Sound Asleep

Teksty

1. GIVE UNTO ME

(Instrumental)


2. WHISPER

Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's 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

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

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

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

Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me shall I give in
Upon my end shall I begin
Forsaking all I've fallen for I rise to meet the end


3. UNDERSTANDING

You hold the answers 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 memories
But the answer is always there

(Can't wash it all away)
(Can't wish it all away)
(Can't hope it all away)
(Can't cry it all away)

The pain that grips you
The fear that binds you
Releases life in
In our mutual
Shame we idolize
To blind them from the truth
That finds a way from who we are
Please don't be afraid
When the darkness fades away
The dawn will break the silence
Screaming in our hearts
My love for you still grows
This I do for you
Before I try to fight the truth my final time

(Man)

We're supposed to try and be real
And I feel alone, and 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 breath
The life that flows inside of you
Burns inside of
Hold and speak to
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 Dis
For I know I cannot
Bear it all alone

(Man)

You're not alone, are you ?
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 cry 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
Ooh, it all away
Ooh, it all away Oh

(Man)

But the answer is always there. Nothing is ever really forgotten

Because I'm dying too. (x6)


4. FORGIVE ME

Can you forgive me again ?
I don't know what I said
But I didn't mean to hurt you

I heard the words come out
I felt that I would die
It hurt so much to hurt you

Then you look at me
You're not shouting anymore
You're silently broken

I'd give anything now
To kill those words for you

Each time I say something I regret I cry I don't want to lose you.
But somehow I know that you will never leave me, yeah.

Cause you were made for me
Somehow I'll make you see
How happy you make me

I can't live this life
Without you by my side
I need you to survive

So stay with me
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry.

And you forgive me again
You're my one true friend
And I never meant to hurt you


5. UNDERSTANDING

You hold the answers 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 memories
But the answer is always there

(Can't wash it all away)
(Can't wish it all away)
(Can't hope it all away)
(Can't cry it all away)

The pain that grips you
The fear that binds you
Releases life in
In our mutual
Shame we idolize
To blind them from the truth
That finds a way from who we are
Please don't be afraid
When the darkness fades away
The dawn will break the silence
Screaming in our hearts
My love for you still grows
This I do for you
Before I try to fight the truth my final time

(Man)

We're supposed to try and be real
And I feel alone, and 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

You're not alone, are you ?
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 cry 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
Ooh, it all away
Ooh, it all away Oh

(Man)

But the answer is always there. Nothing is ever really forgotten

Because I'm dying too. (x6)
