Heaps of Inspiration, of sorts.

Why is it I only ever get inspiration when I'm no where near anything to write with or am too tired to work it out? Inspiration; she is a cruel, fickle mistress indeed. Here are a few songs by Evanescence that have been plaguing my thoughts lately.

Anywhere
Dear my love, haven't you wanted to be with me?
And, dear my love, haven't you longed to be free?
I can't keep pretending that I don't even know you.
And at sweet night, you are my own.

Take my hand, we're leaving here tonight.
There's no need to tell anyone,
They'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light,
We'll be halfway to anywhere,
Where love is more than just your name.

I have dreamed of a place for you and I.
No one knows who we are there.
All I want is to give my life only to you.
I've dreamed so long, I can not dream any more.
Let's run away, I'll take you there.

We're leaving here tonight.
There's no need to tell anyone,
They'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light,
We'll be halfway to anywhere,
Where no one needs a reason.

Forget this life, come with me,
Don't look back, you're safe now.
Unlock you heart, drop your guard.
No one's left to stop you.
Forget this life, come with me,
Don't look back, you're safe now.
Unlock your heart, drop your guard,
No one's left to stop you now.

We're leaving here tonight.
There's no need to tell anyone,
They'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light,
We'll be halfway to anywhere,
Where love is more than just your name.

Lies
Bound at every limb by my shackles of fear
Sealed with lies through so many tears
Lost from within, pursuing the end
I fight for the chance to be lied to again

You will never be strong enough
You will never be good enough
You were never conceived in love
You will not rise above

They'll never see
I'll never be
I've struggled on and on to feed this hunger
Burning deep inside of me

But through my tears breaks a blinding light
Birthing a dawn to this endless night
Arms outstretched, awaiting me
An open embrace upon a bleeding tree

Rest in me and I'll comfort you
I have lived and I died for you
Abide in me and I vow to you
I will never forsake you

They'll never see
I'll never be
I've struggled on and on to feed this hunger
Burning deep inside of me
They'll never see
I'll never be
I've struggled on and on to feed this hunger
Burning deep inside of me

Rest in me and I'll comfort you
I have lived and I died for you
Abide in me and I vow to you
I will never forsake you

They'll never see
I'll never be
I've struggled on and on to feed this hunger
Burning deep inside of me

Away from Me
I hold my breath as this life starts to take its toll.
I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds.
But oh, God, I feel I've been lied to.
Lots all faith in the things I have achieved.

And I've woken now to find myself
in the shadows of all I have created.
I'm longing to be lost in you.
Away from this place I have made.
Won't you take me away from me?

Crawling through this world as disease flows through my veins.
I look into myself, but my own heart has been changed.
I can't go on like this, I loathe all I've become.

I've awoken now to find myself
in the shadows of all I have created.
I'm longing to be lost in you.
Away from this place I have made.
Won't you take me away from me?

Lost in a dying world, I reach for something more.
I have grown so weary of this lie I live.

I've woken now to find myself
in the shadows of all I have created.
I'm longing to be lost in you.
I've woken now to find myself.
I'm lost in shadows of my own.
I'm longing to be lost in you.
Away from me.

Solitude
How many times have you told me you love her?
As many times as I've wanted to tell you the truth.
How long have I stood here, beside you?
I lived through you, you looked through me.

Oo, solitude, still with me is only you.
Oo, solitude, I can't stay away from you.

How many times have I done this to myself?
How long will it take before I see?
When will this hole in my heart be mended?
Who now is left alone but me?

Oo, solitude, forever me, and forever you.
Oo, solitude, only you, only true.

Everyone leaves me stranded, forgotten, abandoned, left behind.
I can't stay her another night.

Your secret admirer. Who could it be?

Can you see, all along, it was me?
How can you be so blind, as to see right through me?

Oo, solitude, still with me is only you.
Oo, solitude, I can't stay away from you.
Oo, solitude, forever me, and forever you.
Oo, solitude, only you, only true.

Where Will You Go?
You're too important for anyone.
You play the role of all you longed to be.
But I, I know who you really are
You're the one who cries when you're alone.

But where will you go?
With no one left to save you from yourself.
You can't escape, you can't escape.

You think that I can't see right through your eyes.
Scared to death to face reality.
No one seems to hear your hidden cries.
You will have to face yourself alone.

But where will you go?
With no one left to save you from yourself.
You can't escape the truth.
I realize you're afraid.
But you can't abandon everyone.
You can't escape, you don't want to escape.

I'm so sick of speaking words that no one understands.
Is it clear enough you can't live your whole life all alone?
I can hear you in a whisper, but you can't even hear me screaming.

And where will you go?
With no one left to save you from yourself.
You can't escape the truth.
I realize you're afraid.
But you can't reject the whole world.
You can't escape, you won't escape.
You can't escape, you don't want to escape.

Field of Innocence
I still remember the world from the eyes of a child.
Slowly those feelings were clouded by what I know now.

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world.
Oh I, I want to go back to believing in everything,
And knowing nothing at all.

I still remember the sun, always warm on my back.
Somehow it seems colder now.

Where has my heart gone?
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger.
Oh I, I want to back to believing in everything.

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world.
Oh I, I want to back to believing in everything.
Oh where, where has my heart gone?
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger.
Oh I, I want to go back to believing in everything.

Even in Death
Give me a reason to believe that you're gone.
I see your shadow so I know they're all wrong.
Moonlight on this soft brown earth,
It leads me to where you lay.
They took you away from me, but now I'm taking you home.

I will stay forever here with you, my love.
These softly spoken words you gave me,
Even in death our love goes on.

Some say I'm crazy for my love, oh, my love.
But no bonds can hold me from your side, oh, my love.
They don't know you can't leave me
They don't hear you singing to me.

I will stay forever here with you, my love.
These softly spoken words you gave me,
Even in death our love goes on.
And I can't love you any more than I do.

I will stay forever here with you, my love.
These softly spoken words you gave me,
Even in death our love goes on.
And I can't love you any more than I do.

People die, but real love is forever.


That's about it. Creepy, ne? They just heap ideas and images of Rhia and others into my mind. It just doesn't help that I'm not ready for any of them yet.. ::sigh::
