Thats what I was thinking at first, that it should have made the album, but now I'm starting to think that it doesn't exactly match the TOD songs. It's different. I guess it was written before most of the TOD songs, if I have my facts straight.

But I'm glad we got to hear it. It's so... shocking and raw. When I first heard about it, given the title, I thought it would be something like what CMWYS is. More "in your face". But yeah.... wow.

but seriously, it's just so gorgeous. i'd love to hear it live. reckon they would do it live? xo

Probably, unless they choose to do every song (maybe minus two or three) off of TOD, and then the singles from Fallen, then they wouldn't have time to do it.

Edit: I don't want to double post, so I'll just put this here. I think the song is conversation between two people. I kinda figured out who I think is saying each line; what Amy is saying to him is in pink, and what he's saying to her is in blue:

Sparkling grey
Through 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, and 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 the door down
I found my way out

And you'll never hurt me again

Like, I think at the beginning of the song he's complaining and she's passively asking him to change, but by the second verse she realizes that he's been stepping all over her, and when she says "Give up my way, and I could be anything", she figures that she can't just wait for him to change, she should step up and get out of the relationship. And in his last lines he says, he's just angry and doesn't care if she likes him or not.

That's my spin on it.

This song is AMAZING. Definitely one of my faves. Gives me the chills.

I think this the most reminiscent to the old school Ev, especially Even in Death, Anything For You, and others. Simply. Brilliant.

Could it be "I'm not dying, baby" instead of "I'm not buying, baby" - dunno really it's just what I heard.

I don't know, I just copied and pasted what other people had written.

I havn't heard this song yet. but it sounds amazing

Neglected_Soul · 09-29-2006, 09:33 PM

Guess what! I heard it.

(This is the point where everything gets quiet and you all stare at me, right?) This song is so amazing. My favorite part is the third time she says run around 3:10. It's really sad. I like how it's slow at first, but grows a bit harder later.

Metal Lord · 09-29-2006, 09:37 PM

Incredibly beautiful song. They better play it live.

Video_Kid · 09-29-2006, 09:38 PM

I'm just so amazed by her voice, it's so varied and controlled. I wouldn't have even be able to imagine this, it's so... I'm lost for words really.
