Cover art for My Immortal (Piano - Vocal Version) lyrics by Evanescence

"I’m so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears"- Tired of being alive because I'm afraid to live... "And if you have to leave I wish that you would just leave" If I have to get over you, then just go "'cause your presence still lingers here And it won't leave me alone" All that I see around me reminds me of you "You used to captivate me By your resonating light Now I’m bound by the life you left behind" I fell so in love with you, our love became a child. "Your face, it haunts My once pleasant dreams " Everytime I look at our child, I'm haunted by the dreams we had together... He looks like you. "Your voice, it's chased away All the sanity in me" I believed in your promises--- "I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone But though you're still with me I've been alone all along" --- It's hard to give up on the hopes and dreams that I have made with you. You are always in my heart but I'm living half a life, with half a dream. "These wounds won't seem to heal This pain is just too real There’s just too much that time cannot erase" The hurt isn't visible but it is very real, and time can't erase suicide "When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream I’d fight away all of your fears I held your hand through all of these years But you still have...all of me" I tried to save you from yourself, and I find I'm still trying.

What a fool I am to hope!
