Evanescence Survivor #7: Darkest Lyrics
Thanks to Nellie for coming up with this, we're starting this new survivor!
 Here are the suggestions so far (but we do need more)! 1. Hunting you, I can smell you - alive Your heart pounding in my head 2. My wounds cry for the grave My soul cries for deliverance 3. I can't escape the twisted way you think of me. I feel you in my dreams and I don't sleep. 4. I'll have your nightmares for you If you sleep soundly 5. I'm dying, praying, bleeding and screaming am I too lost to be saved 6. I lay dying and I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal 7. I long to be like you, Lie cold in the ground like you. 8. Arms outstretched, awaiting me An open embrace upon a bleeding tree 9. Has no one told you she's not breathing? Hello I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to 10. Crawling through this world as disease flows through my veins I look into myself, but my own heart has been changed 11. And in the end I guess I had to fall. Always find my place among the ashes __________________
Once more into the fray.
Into the last good fight I'll ever know. Live and die on this day. Live. And Die. On This Day. Last edited by StartSomething; 12-18-2010 at 02:43 PM |

Plenty of dark lyrics to choose from:
-Moonlight on the soft brown earth It leads me to where you lay -No one seems to hear your hidden cries You're left to face yourself alone -I’ve become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold -Your face it haunts My once pleasant dreams -I took their smiles and I made them mine. I sold my soul just to hide the light. -I dream in darkness I sleep to die, Erase the silence, erase my life -Don't cling to me, I swear I can't fix you. Still in the dark, can you fix me? -Here in the darkness I know myself. Can't break free until I let it go. -If I cut you down to a thing I can use, I fear there will be nothing good left of you. __________________

A few more......how many do we need, 30?
 I hate me, For breathing without you. Though I patiently waited, bedside, for the death of today. I can't see your star. We're all grieving, Lost and bleeding. And I bleed, I bleed, And I breathe, I breathe no more. I want to die!!! __________________

- I can hear you in a whisper,
but you can't even hear me screaming. - Bound at every limb by my shackles of fear Sealed with lies through so many tears - These wounds won't seem to heal This pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase - Closing your eyes to disappear, You pray your dreams will leave you here; But still you wake and know the truth, No one is there... - Death before my eyes Lying next to me I fear - You're just so pretty in your pain. - If I bleed, I'll bleed.. knowing you don't care. ----------------- Yeah I know I took big chunks But the lyrics didn't feel complete with 1 or 2 lines of it.

Thanks Nellie, I think we're close to starting this now
 do you mind if I break some of those verses up? its just its easier, and I guess fairer as well, if we keep it to 3 or less lines an entry..then I'll get it started  Still time for more suggestions, if there are any more? __________________

Okay, I'll edit some shorter versions
Going through the song list at azlyrics.com I've just noticed how many songs I missed when I transferred my music from my old computer - Beg my broken heart to beat - The softly spoken words you gave me Even in death our love goes on - The pain that grips you The fear that binds you Releases life in me - Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand __________________

Just a tad more:
-Give unto me all that frightens you I'll have your nightmares for you -Place onto me your burden I'll drink your deadly poison -Show me the shadow where true meaning lies So much more dismay in empty eyes -I believe that dreams are sacred. Take my darkest fears and play them __________________

Cool, looks like we're ready to rumble, but I'll leave it 24 hours for any more final suggestions before setting this up

Right, I'll have to check this list again but we have 40 so I think thats enough
lets get voting! To recap, you get two votes each round. A vote to kill a lyric and a vote to save one. 1. Hunting you, I can smell you - alive Your heart pounding in my head 2. My wounds cry for the grave My soul cries for deliverance 3. I can't escape the twisted way you think of me. I feel you in my dreams and I don't sleep. 4. I'll have your nightmares for you If you sleep soundly 5. I'm dying, praying, bleeding and screaming am I too lost to be saved 6. I lay dying and I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal 7. I long to be like you, Lie cold in the ground like you. 8. Arms outstretched, awaiting me An open embrace upon a bleeding tree 9. Has no one told you she's not breathing? Hello I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to 10. Crawling through this world as disease flows through my veins I look into myself, but my own heart has been changed 11. And in the end I guess I had to fall. Always find my place among the ashes 12. I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge the nightmare i built my own world to escape 13. Moonlight on the soft brown earth It leads me to where you lay 14. No one seems to hear your hidden cries You're left to face yourself alone 15. I’ve become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold 16. Your face it haunts My once pleasant dreams 17. I took their smiles and I made them mine. I sold my soul just to hide the light. 18. I dream in darkness I sleep to die, Erase the silence, erase my life 19. Don't cling to me, I swear I can't fix you. Still in the dark, can you fix me? 20. Here in the darkness I know myself. Can't break free until I let it go. 21. If I cut you down to a thing I can use, I fear there will be nothing good left of you. 22. I hate me, For breathing without you. 23. Though I patiently waited, bedside, for the death of today. I can't see your star. 24. We're all grieving, Lost and bleeding. 25. And I bleed, I bleed, And I breathe, I breathe no more. 26. I want to die!!! 27. Death before my eyes Lying next to me I fear 28. You're just so pretty in your pain. 29. If I bleed, I'll bleed.. knowing you don't care. 30. Bound at every limb by my shackles of fear Sealed with lies through so many tears 31. These wounds won't seem to heal This pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase 32. Beg my broken heart to beat 33. The softly spoken words you gave me Even in death our love goes on 34. The pain that grips you The fear that binds you Releases life in me 35. Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand 36. Give unto me all that frightens you I'll have your nightmares for you 37. Place onto me your burden I'll drink your deadly poison 38. Show me the shadow where true meaning lies So much more dismay in empty eyes 39. I believe that dreams are sacred. Take my darkest fears and play them 40. Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights __________________
