"Understanding" (Acoustic) - Evanescence

"Understanding" by Evanescence
Acoustic Version


LYRICS
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 for who we are

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

Cast me not away
Say you'll be with me
For I know
I cannot bear it all alone

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 hope it all away


"The first song ever written by Ben Moody and credited as the second song ever written by Evanescence."

No, it was already like that :) I used it because those are the lyrics on the lower left side lol Can't tell in this vid, tho, cause the picture is a little smaller than usual.

"lying beside you, listening to your breathe, the life 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" - best line on a song ever!
