The Words Wednesday, January 14, 2004

I never really felt the need to take the words of any artist and write them in my diary. However, when I heard this song I knew it was the song that would make it to my diary. I want to, not only give credit to the person that wrote it, but also thank them…

The first time I heard this song I knew it captured everything I used to feel about Keith. It was like the artist was inside my mind seeing everything that I was seeing and in my heart feeling everything I was feeling. It was like she took my thoughts and wrote them down and created a song to express exactly what I was trying to show the world. I could not write a song to illustrate more clearly every ounce of emotion that went through my soul. So here it is, Evanescence’s song, My Immortal.

I am so tired of being here

Suppressed by all of my childish fears

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

Because your presence still lingers here

And it won’t leave me alone.

These wounds won’t seem to heal.

This pain is just too real.

There’s just too much that time cannot erase.

When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears.

When you’d scream, I’d fight away all of your fears.

I hold your hand through all these years.

But you still have all of me.

You used to captivate me

By your resonating light.

But now I’m bound by the life you left behind.

Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams.

Your voice it chases away all the sanity in me.

These wounds won’t seem to heal.

This pain is just too real.

There’s just too much that time cannot erase.

When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears.

When you’d scream, I’d fight away all of your fears.

I’d hold your had through all these years.

But you still have all of me.

I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone.

And though you’re still with me

I’ve been alone all along.

Evanescence and Her
