Bring Me To Life By Evanescence

How can you see into my eyes like open doors

Leading you down into my core

Where I've become so numb

Without a soul

My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold

Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside

(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside

(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run

(I can't wake up) Before I come undone

(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without

You can't just leave me

Breathe into me and make me real

Bring me to life

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside

(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside

(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run

(I can't wake up) Before I come undone

(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life

I've been living a lie

There's nothing inside

Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch

Without your love, darling

Only you are the life among the dead

All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see

Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me

I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems

Got to open my eyes to everything

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul

Don't let me die here

There must be something more

Bring me to life

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside

(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside

(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run

(I can't wake up) Before I come undone

(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life

I've been living a lie

There's nothing inside

Bring me to life

I wrote in another thread how much this song means to me and thought I'd post the lyrics. Any mistakes are mine from typing errors. I have loads of favourite songs and love all kinds of music but play this at least once a day (mostly on repeat, my neighbours are probably sick of it by now!). :lol:

For me it is even better with the music and singing, but the words are so beautiful I just wish I'd written it.

I don't know whether I hope for me to be able to bring myself back to life or whether it is a longing for someone else to be the person who could help me do it.

But it gives me hope on good days and calms me on bad days. And somehow I never find it depressing.

Sorry this post is so long, if you've got bored and given up reading don't worry. :D

PS. If there is karaoke at the meet (and I am drunk enough) I might get up and sing it. This a warning though coz everyone else would need ear defenders! :lol:

Sorry just had to remind myself of my own hope there for a minute.

I think it's called transference when someone else's pain seeps into you like you are a sponge or something.

As usual this song helped.

I also enjoy many songs Evanescence has come up with, as well! But you know, since they are rather a 'Goth' band, I thought this one had more to do with being 'awakened' back into Life, from some sort of vampire-like state. I'd never thought of it before, that it can also mean being 'brought back' from great emptiness inside, maybe a BPD-like state of existence...

Thank you for your new perspective, here. I'm happy for you, that this song does give you Hope.

Blade yay! someone who shares some of my musical tastes.

I do love Nightwish. My favourite is "ghost love score" all 10 minutes of it got 2 of their dvds! :D

Haven't got any Within Temptation but me and my daughter had already said we need some.

So sorry forgot to look back at this thread for ages. Not been posting much due to home stuff, been hiding in chat a lot. But regret missing this, as well as feeling guilty for not replying to other's threads as much.

Watched Within Temptation dvd last night. "The silent force tour".

My daughter borrowed it from a friend at school and it was amazing. Loved loads but especially: Pale (my favourite at the mo), Angels, Memories, Mother Earth. Well you get the picture, if I carry on I will end up listing them all! :lol:

Thank you so much for your lovely offer. Not too sure how to do that but will pm you my details and hopefully that will work.

Thank you again I love music and love finding more to love and enjoy. :D

"have to break free from the thoughts in my head, Use the time that I have...Have to fight, coz I know in the end it's worthwhile, that the pain I feel slowly fades away, It will be alright..."

Wow! can't get enough of it at the moment it's so beautiful and inspirational. x

I don't know but the pc has the thing built in.

Will see if my daughter can manage it. (But ssshhh don't tell anyone coz I'm sure we're not allowed to do that!) It wasn't me honest! :lol:

If not I hope santa brings it for you coz it's brill.
