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 from 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
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/e/evanescence/understandingsound+alseep+ep_20938752.html ]
Lying beside you listening to you breathe
The light 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
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

I try so hard
