Evanescence Understanding (Sound Asleep) Lyrics

“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”
