Understanding
Evanescence EP, track 6
Whisper/Sound Asleep EP, tracks 3 & 5 written by: A. Lee and B. Moody The first song ever written by Ben Moody and credited as the second song ever written by Evanescence. The audio clips in the song come from the movies My World Dies Screaming, otherwise known as Terror in the Haunted House (1958) and When a Man Loves A Woman (1994). Ben Moody often refers to it as a “Cheesy 7-minute Goth anthem”. -- Understanding - Evanescence EP version Items in italics are spoken quotes from 'My World Dies Screaming' (1958, aka 'Terror in the Haunted House') except the line "We're supposed to try... that is real" and "Please don't hate me.. because I'll die if you do" which are from 'When A Man Loves A Woman', (1994, starring Meg Ryan and Andy Garcia). You hold the answer deep within your own mind. Consciously you've forgotten it. That's the way the human mind works. Whenever something is too unpleasant, too shameful for us to entertain we reject it, we erase it from our memory, but the imprint is always there. Oooh.. We wash it all away, we wish it all away, we hope it all away, can't cry it all away. 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 for who we are Please don't be afraid When the darkness fades away The dawn will break the silence screaming at our hearts My love for you still grows This I do for you Before I try to fight the truth my final time We're supposed to try and be real and when you feel alone, you are not together, and that is real. Can't wash it all away Can't wish it all away Can't cry it all away Can't scratch it all away 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 You're not alone, honey, Never. Never. Can't fight it all away Can't hope it all away Can't scream it all away It just won't fade away, no... Oooh.. can't wash it all away Can't wish it all away, yeah, yeah yeah. Can't throw it all away Can't scratch it all away, yeah.... Can't fight it all away Can't hope it all away Can't scream it all away Move it all away Move it all away But the imprint is always there, nothing is ever really forgotten Please don't hate me Because I'll die if you do Because I'll die if you do Because I'll die if you do Because I'll die if you do Because I'll die if you do ****************************************** Understanding - Sound Asleep EP Version This version starts and predominates with a highly-reverbed guitar. You hold the answer <- Ben [Edit <3 Lauren] 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 for who we are Please don't be afraid When the darkness fades away The dawn will break the silence screaming at our hearts My love for you still grows And this I do for you Before I try to fight the truth my final time Can't wash it all away Can't wish it all away Can't cry it all away Can't scratch it all away 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 tried so hard Lyrics by: A.

huh...that's weird, I never noticed that...I keep hearing something in the beginning of sound asleep though...It's about half a minute into the song, either its the sound of a guitar string or someone talking but if you listen in the background before amy starts to sing you'll hear some kinda sound...its reaaaally quiet though...
