Evanescence – Understanding (Can't Wash It All Away) Lyrics 21 years ago
i agree with dustytiger. i see this song as being about two people who are forced to be apart by everyone around them. there's a lot of pain and fear in this strained relationship, and ultimately she knows that they have to let go.
in the intro, the guy is asking her why they have to be apart when they love each other, when he really knows WHY they have to be apart. he knows and she knows, yet they don't want to accept the truth 'in our mutual/ shame we hide our eyes/to blind them from the truth/ that finds a way from who we are'.
the first verse is with her asking him not to be afraid of their separation, because 'when the darkness fades away/the dawn will break the silence' indicating that when the sadness and pain is over, a new day will come and they will be together again. then in the second verse, she talks about living through the rough patches, and begs him to tell her that he'll always be there. she has her doubts, but she knows there's no other way that they can love each other.
so voila... my extremely long interpretation of this song!
and jasongs89, it was ben who described it as ridiculous.

Evanescence – October Lyrics 21 years ago
this song could definitely be about christianity, but the way i see it is that amy's in a relationship with someone who basically controls her. she's tried to break up with him so many times, but in the end she knows he'll always be there, that he'll always find her. she has no choice but to give up, telling him 'you're my only strength' and she realizes that she depends on him. she's nothing without him.
though when she sings about his abounding grace, the song is probably about her relationship with god. *shrugs* i'm not too good with interpretations anyway. i do love this song, though.
