OK.. I suppose we should get through "Fallen" so here's
(My Band Is) Going Under. Written in first person, as all the best narcissistic Amy-penned songs are, about her exquisite vocals. You know, towards the end, I think she might be looking for help... I didn't mean that when I was writing this... funny how things happen like that
Now I will tell you what I've done so far -
50 thousand shows I've sang.
Screaming, wailing, ears bleeding and all -
And you still don't hear me.
Don't want training this time - I'll train myself.
Maybe I'll sing well for once (sing well for once)
Not tormenting, daily off-key vocals
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom
I'm wailing again
Ev is going under (going under)
Failing so fast (failing so fast)
I'm singing off key (singing off key)
I've got to screech more
My band is going under
Slurring and slurring the words and the lines.
(So you don't know what's real) So you don't know what's real and what's not (and what's not)
Always off-key, the notes are all wrong
So I can't trust my voice anymore
I'm wailing again
Ev is going under (going under)
Failing so fast (failing so fast)
I'm singing off key (singing off key)
I've got to screech more
I'm...
So go on and scream
Scream at you, I'm so off-key (so off-key)
I won't perform well again (again)
I've got to breathe - I can't keep going off-key
I'm wailing again
Ev is going under (going under)
Failing so fast (failing so fast)
I'm singing off key (singing off key)
I've got to screech more
Ev is going under (going under)
Failing so fast (failing so fast)
I'm singing off key (singing off key)
I'm wailing at you.
