As much as I’d like the past not to exist
It still does
And as much as I’d like to feel like I belong here
I’m just as scared as you
I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We’ve been falling for all this time
And now I’m lost in paradise
Run away, run away
One day we won’t feel this pain anymore
Take it all away
Shadows of you
Cause they won’t let me go
Evanescence - “Lost in Paradise” (Album: Evanescence EP)
5I can’t go on living this way
But I can’t go back the way I came
Chained to this fear that I will never find
A way to heal my soul
And I will wander ‘til the end of time
Half alive without you
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us…
Change - open your eyes to the light
I denied it all so long, oh so long
Say goodbye
Goodbye.
Evanescence - “My Heart is Broken” (Album: Evanescence [2011])
I’ve been screaming on the inside
And I know you feel the pain
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Ah…
Say it’s over,
Yes it’s over
But I need you anyway
Say you love me but it’s not enough
Not that I’m so different
Not that I don’t see
The dying light of what we used to be
But how could I forgive you?
You’ve changed!
And I’m a liar by your side
I’m about to lose my mind…
Evanescence - “The Change” (Album: Evanescence [2011])
We kill the lights and put on a show
It’s all a lie
But you’d never know
The star will shine
And then it will fall
And you will forget it all
And after midnight we’re all the same
No glass shoe to bring us fame
Nobody to take the blame
We’re falling apart
Every story’s a waiting game
A flower for every name
Their colors are paling
In the falling rain
The Birthday Massacre - “Kill the Lights” (Album: Walking With Strangers)
You wait for the sun in the morning.
I’m waiting for rain.
Sometimes you’re too close when I close my eyes.
For now, you’re quiet again.
The story is over.
You never wanted the same.
Did you learn to take cover?
Or are you running away?
And you see right through me
This shouldn’t last forever.
You’re so close
Now it’s time to say goodbye.
The Birthday Massacre: “Forever” (Imaginary Monsters EP)
