Evanescence - The Last Song I'm Wasting on You

[JayBoozer]

This was a bonus track from Itunes if you pre-ordered the album. Although this song is pretty slow... it has a unique song structure (the chorus's are different). Theres no doubt though that this song has some of the best lyrics Evanescence has ever written and it is exquisitely beautiful.

Lyrics:

Sparkling grey
Through my own veins
Any more than a whisper
Any sudden movement of my heart
And I know, I know I'll have to watch them pass away

Just get through this day

Give up your way, you could be anything,
Give up my way,
and lose myself,
not today
That's too much guilt to pay

Sickened in the sun
You dare tell me you love me
But you held me down and screamed you wanted me to die
Honey you know, you know I'd never hurt you that way

You're just so pretty in your pain

Give up my way, and I could be anything
I'll make my own way
Without your senseless hate....hate...hate.....hate

So run, run, run
And hate me, if it feels good
I can't hear your screams anymore

You lied to me
But I'm older now
And I'm not buying baby

Demanding my response
Don't bother breaking the door down
I found my way out

And you'll never hurt me again

How the hell did this song not make the album??!! This song is better than most of the tracks on "The Open Door" and is way better than "Good Enough" (the only true ballad on TOD) in my opinion. Beautiful song...and a shame.

I love this. One of the best from the album (and its bonus tracks).

This reminds me of "Give Unto Me." Maybe it's all the "give"s in the lyrics. Amazing vocals, love Amy with just the piano. The lyrics are pretty creepy though. Should I even ask if this one is about Ben?

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS DID NOT MAKE THE ALBUM!!!!!! :o :o

yeah TOD is great and all but definately could use more ballads

good enough really is the only one-- like you is a close second but it doesn't quite live up to hello or my immortal from fallen... :-\
