    I think the meaning of this song is we need to open our eyes to our pain, accept it, wether it be a dark past, a tragedy that haunts us, out own inner darkness whatever it is, look into it and when you do you can break this cycle, and you can end your suffering and really heal, even though the event still happened the event isn't what hurts us still but rather the act of rejecting it. You can't wash any of it away, can't wish any of it away, can't cry any of it all away or even try and rip any of it away because that's the pain the act of rejection causes it. Just accept it and you won't suffer anymore, be healed by accepting while also becoming stronger by embracing yourself how you are. Great song!

  • @kainenburgess64
    @kainenburgess64 3 ปีที่แล้ว +92

    A very good interpretation of the song. "The pain that grips you ...
    ... releases life in me"
    -- One person has just revealed to his deepest, heartbreaking secrets to his partner. I'm sure many of you have felt this: when you and another person you love have a moment where your heart's desires are poured out for each other to see, it's *unbelievably liberating*, and you're like "Oh my God, I'm not alone in this .. I never imagined I'd find someone to share this with." Sharing something mutual and so deep is like *freeing yourself* from the bonds of the silence that you've set upon these secrets ("Releases life in me").
    "In our mutual shame ...
    ... from who we are"
    -- Both these two people deal with their problems by withdrawing from the outside world, because no-one else understands them.
    (nb: This isn't always true; just because no-one around you doesn't understand you, doesn't mean there's NO-ONE in the whole world who isn't feeling exactly what you feel - it just takes the hand of fate to find each other. Like the song says, "You're never alone honey .. never." :) Anyway ..
    "Please don't be afraid ...
    ... screaming at our hearts"
    -- She is telling him (or him to her, if you want :P), "Don't be scared when the next day dawns, because now that we've shared everything, we can get through this together, and not fight the battle alone anymore." The line "The dawn will break the silence screaming at our hearts" means that by the time morning comes, what they shared the previous night would have truly sunken in, and they now realised how to fight their fears.
    "The life that flows inside of you,
    Burns inside of me"
    -- The life that he's endured, though it seems normal and the only reality for him, seems so utterly cruel to her and burns her inside, makes her sad for her partner's despair. :(
    This line is the most powerful one in the whole song to me.
    "Hold and speak to me ...
    ... bear it all alone"
    -- The couple are exchanging vows of mutual trust; basically "Promise me you'll get through this and I promise you that I'll be with you until the end. Don't reject me, because I can't live without you." This also ties in with "God, please don't leave me .. because I'll die if you do."
    "Can't wash it all away ..." etcetera.
    -- No matter how hard they try, neither of them can erase the past

      In my opinion it means: viewing someone else living their life going through turmoil/ happiness and relating to it so deeply but unable to do anything or take action in yourself. Basically- depression lmao. Atleast, that’s what I think it represents. But yeah ur right it is a very vague lyric.

Then tour, a little break and then again world tour and then Synthesis in 2017 and then again world tour. Another will start again in a month and then a new album at the end of this year. The fact that Ev is not mainstream music does not mean that they have disappeared. They never left, just follow them.

      This is not "her" song, it's a song from Amy, Ben and David, the real Evanescence band. After Ben left, it's Amy solo career with the name Evanescence on it. All the fame and glory came from the work of those three. Amy solo career is decent, but not even close to what the original Evanescence was, they were awesome together.

    I love this song its beautiful.you can tell that shes talking about someone she really loves and lost. Its sad, but I understand where shes coming from to have someone you love hate you kills you. Theres no way to ever get rid of those memories, nothing. You cant wish the pain away and you cant cut deep enough to make you forget the hurt. But, what makes this song sadder is when he says shes not alone. I wish the one I loved was still here with me, but maybe eventually the imprint of him will go away.

    Never heard a song representing C-PTSD better than this song. I'm 20 rn and only two years ago did I manage to find and break down a door with memories I never thought I had. Interesting how rape can be suppressed when you're still in diapers. All these years I didn't have a clue why I always panicked when someone got too close, broached the subject of wanting their first time with me, and always screamed and thrashed in my sleep. Maybe one day I'll have the guts to tell someone..
