My Immortal
by Evenescence

I'm so tired of being here
Supressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time can not erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time can not erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

Contained on these pages are my explorations into the nature of life and death. My ideas of what death actually is have come and gone with the wind. In my mind’s eye my own concepts of the world and its spiritual and emotional components change nearly as often as the phases of the moon. I’ve seen death as a momentous roar into freedom and a whispering transition into a perpetuation of life. In such cases of the latter I have even come to discover my true fear of my own mortality. But in all my endeavors to uncover the true face of the Angel of Death, I’ve realized that my efforts can only carry me so far.
