Lies by Evanescence

Lies by Evanescence from their "demo" cd, Origin.

This song is considered to be one of Evanescence's trademark songs. Bruce Fitzhugh of Living Sacrifice provided the male vocals on the Origin version and Stephanie Pierce provided the female backup vocals (soprano) for this version. This is the strongest Evanescence song, with heavy guitars and drums in it. It is the shortest title of all Evanescence's songs. The live version of the song doesn't feature the choir at the beginning and at the end, where there is a long guitar solo is played.


Lyrics:
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

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

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

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

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

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