These two songs are amazing, they are both sad and beautiful.
Apocalyptica, ft. Brent Smith: Not Strong Enough, Lyrics
I'm not strong enough to stay away, can't run from you, I just run back to you.
Like a moth I'm drawn into you flame, you say my name, but it's not the same.
You look in my eyes, I'm stripped of my pride, and my soul surrenders and you bring my heart to its knees
(Chorus)
And It's killing me when you're away, and I wanna to leave and wanna stay.
I'm so confused, so hard to choose, between the pleasure and the pain.
And I know it's wrong and I know it's right, even if I tried to win the fight, my heart would overrule my mind, and I'm not strong enough to stay away....
I'm not strong enough to stay away, what can I do? I would die without you.
In your presence my heart knows no shame, I'm not to blame, because you bring my heart to its knees
(Chorus)
There's nothing I can do, my heart is chained to you.
And I can't get free.
Look what this love's done to me.
(Chorus)
Okay, this song is perfect! I mean the music is rock sometimes, and then it is symphonic, and there's the cellos; Brent's voice is lovely, it's high, it's low, it's a vocal holy grail. Not to mention the lyrics are intoxicationg.
To be honest, this song is so sexy, I mean it's just....uh!
You can get this on their 7th Symphony album.
Evanessence: The Last Song I'm Wasting on You, Lyrics
Sparkling grey, they're my own veins....
Any more than a whisper, any sudden movement of my heart....
And I know, I know I'll have to watch them pass away.
Just get through this day.
Give up your way, you could be anything.
Give up my way, and lose myself.....not today, that's too much guilt to pay...
Sickened in the sun, you dare tell me you love me.
But you held me down and screamed you wanted me to die.
Honey you know, you know I'd never hurt you that way.
You're just so pretty in your pain.
Give up my way, I could be anything.
I'll make my own way, without your senseless hate, hate, hate, hate.
So run, run, run; and hate me, if it feels good.
I can't hear your screams anymore.
You lied to me, but I'm older now, and I'm not buying, baby.
Demanding my response, don't bother breaking down the door.
I found my way out.
And you'll never hurt me again...
I adore this song, it makes me weep.
Of course, Amy Lee's voice just makes you want to cry anyway, but paired with these emotional lyrics and the slow piano and all of its simplicity...oh my god, I just want to burst with admiration.
It is a good song for a victim of abuse too, because it sounds like she's actually been through it...I don't know what else to say...
You can't get this song on any cd that I'm aware of...it's really rare. But it should be on itunes or amazon.
