She sings the words "RUN" while doing a vocal run, evoking the emotional feel of the moment, and sounding like she´s actually running. That is ARTISTRY at it´s FINEST
She also did that in Lost in Paradise when she sang "Run away" I love that part.
Oui merci

You've nailed it!
I've no idea what your talking about....evoking what?
I left an abusive marriage 7 years ago, and this song just hits me right in the soul. This is exactly how I felt the day I packed a bag with nothing but my laptop and a few outfits and left everything else behind. I was terrified, but hopeful too, and this song manages to capture everything I felt in that moment.
God it makes me cry every time, but in a good way. I'm *free,* and I'm never going back to those days.
so happy you found freedom! this song has a personal meaning to me too but it's about all the bad things I was told to believe about myself, sadly I did believe them for a long time, now it's over and I visit this song to remind myself that it's over!
I'm sorry to hear that you went through that experience but I'm also glad that you were able to walk away from it and live another day.
SO HAPPY YOU ARE FREE
I've been in the same situation.
Also, got out of it, tho before I did I went back many many times. It's a vicious cycle to break out from...im so glad I'm out.

I think this is the most underrated and beautiful song ever , seriously speechles, vocals, lyrics , piano. Such a masterpiece. one my Favs Now.
Evanescence as whole is underrated. Her only known songs are "Bring me to Life", "My immortal" (a masterpiece) and probably "Lithium".
Shellyevans agreed this song is nowhere near as popular as it should be it’s easily as good as my immortal
No, It is and always be "Hello"
yeah this is my favorite song by amy i think
I prefer this song over Good Enough
She said in an interview that she she was so inspired in the middle of their tour that she recorded this song in a bathroom with the recording devices she had that time. That’s why you can hear the imperfections in this song, like unnecessary sounds coming from her throat during pauses. You can also hear that she was crying towards the beginning of the second chorus, reason for the crack of her voice at the end of the second stanza.
This has been, by far, the most raw and vulnerable song I’ve heard from an artist. And of course the rest of her songs are amazing too. In my case, I had to take a break from listening to Evanescence because every song holds personal, intimate meanings and it’s hard not to protect yourself from the pain while you’re listening.
" every song holds personal, intimate meanings and it’s hard not to protect yourself from the pain while you’re listening " exactly
You're joking right? Try to record yourself or someone in the bathroom and then compare it to this. She might have recorded it just so she doesn't forget it, but it doesn't mean that this isn't a studio version. And those "voice cracks" are often made on purpose to feel more genuine and emotional. This is recorded in a studio.
maybe she meant she wrote the song in a bathroom but this was definitely sung in a studio
I'd say true. She can make you sad listening to her. She does have that voice the screams pain when she wants it. This is a sad song. And you can hear the pain in it.
I don't care how good your microphone is, it can't record studio quality in a bathroom, lol! I'm sure she got a rough recording in a bathroom just to not forget it. But this is a studio recording. I love the imperfections because I also know that they're not random. That's how she meant it to sound. She has such an amazing voice...
this is for real the most raw and emotional song I’ve ever heard in my life.
@@janemorrigan8756 so kind of you miss Jane.
It is..
And more so because it's Amy who's singing it..
Glassy sky check it
@@10nutz_ glassy sky is definitely up there with Amy Lee's music
You should check out tides of time by epica
The lyrics of this song are so meaningful..."Give up my way? And lose myself? Not Today..."
This is one of my favorite songs.
Amen 🙏
“You held me down and screamed you wanted me to die”
Only people who have heard those words know how much it hurts.
Sparkling grey
There 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 buyin' baby
Demanding my response
Don't bother breaking the door down
I've found my way out
And you'll never hurt me again
INTERESTING FACT: This song was written by Amy Lee in the bathroom of the Hotel where the band stayed when they toured Europe, after guitarist and co-founder of the band Ben Moody stated his decision to leave the tour and leave the band .
DATO INTERESANTE: Esta canción la escribió Amy Lee en el baño del Hotel donde se quedaba la banda cuando estaban de gira por Europa, luego de que el guitarrista y cofundador de la banda Ben Moody manifestara su decisión de irse de la gira y abandonar la banda.
Another interesting, actually sad fact: it's about the physical and emotional abuse she suffered from Ben.
Hahahahaha really? well Shaun Morgan from the seether band, he was an addict with aggressive tendencies and even so Amy Lee was with him and maintained a close relationship with him, in fact it is known that many of the discussions between Amy and Ben were for issues related to Shaun Morgan , for me it was a matter of preference and judgment, much to my regret I have to say that I really believe that Amy had a self-esteem problem, it is not by chance that all the original members of the band left due to strong and heated discussions with Amy, if you are an admirer of hers it is logical that you want to defend her, but you have to have criteria and objectivity, it is quite rare that everyone has had problems with Amy, it is more than remarkable that she is an imposing and authoritarian person who likes to impose her criteria and her opinion above the rest and that from what is known, she does not care at all about the opinion of others, not for nothing many of the singers of the gothic genre do not support her, but hey, All this is my speculation... if at this moment the Evanescence brand is still active or current it is because of its old successes and why most of its members admire Amy Lee too much, as well as her followers, but on an artistic level Evanescence is not what it was, to show a button all the works and projects they have done and have not hit a single one that are comparable to the successes of the Fallen album, only with Fallen they hit 4 singles worldwide, and with the album Open Doors they hit 2 singles worldwide, it should be noted that several of the members of the original band were still at Open Doors.
@@carpediemearth In my humble conclusion, Evanescence is not Amy Lee Evanescence was born and was possible thanks to Amy and Ben, whoever it hurts, that is the reality, as real as most of us knew Evanescence from the successes of the Fallen Album or the Open Doors Album. It is true that Amy never needed Ben, but Evanescence (that is, the band) could not and will not be what it was without Ben, Amy and Ben were the soul of Evanescence and the idea of forming a band in principle was Ben Moody's.
@@alchemyproductionsofficial The laughable lies you sexlst Ben fanboys love fabricating 😂 Stating the facts is not "defending" (this phrase is so transparent...), it's stating the facts, which you fanboys that defend and love the disgusting abuser Ben and the toxic two friends of his he hired for tour never like. You also clearly know nothing about Ev. Ev was a duo. The only original members are its co-founders, Amy and Ben (and Ev was Amy's creative vision from the start). Ev was a duo with hired tour and session players until Amy made it a band in 2009. The only people that had a problem with Amy were: her abuser Ben - who had dated Amy when they were teens and was physically and mentally abusive to her for years and resented her for leaving him and also getting more attention that him as the singer and pianist, plus they had major creative differences - , and his two toxic buddies John and Rocky who he hired for tour; after Ben left, John and Rocky, who were just tour players, felt entitled to more and Amy tried writing music with them but they wanted something not compatible to what she and Terry were working on for TOD and they didn't want to collaborate with Amy and Terry so they got bitter and began trying to screw her over; the two hated TOD, publicly criticized her and Terry's music, but stayed for the paycheck, bragging about that, and planning to leave Amy and Terry high and dry at a later point, plus, John had leaked Amy's wedding plans forcing her to change them especially as she had had a stalker before; people behind the scenes told Amy what they were saying and planning and she finally decided to cut out the bad apples. David himself, who hadn't been part of Ev for several years, spoke up and criticized them for their repulsive attitude and acting like they were entitled to anything, saying "The only thing I would have done differently than Amy in the last two years is distance myself sooner from them. Amy and Ben started Evanescence. ... What the hired band did do was accept the chance of a lifetime - be part of one of the biggest-selling records in the last 10 years and make more money playing in front of bigger crowds than any other musician we'd known. ... But for anyone to be even the least bit ungrateful is mind-boggling. What exactly did they think they deserved out of this? Amy doesn't owe them anything, and anyone who thinks differently is sorely mistaken." David attended Amy's wedding, as did the former tour bassist Will Boyd. Terry is also Amy's longtime friend and after leaving the touring life behind in 2015 due to his health he's still hung out with Amy and the band, and even joined them in 2019 for a performance of Sweet Sacrifice. Only those three aforementioned toxic buddies, who tried to undermine Amy multiple times, were the problem.
Ben's abuse is well documented, it was stated in legal documents back then and Amy was asked about it and the relation to her lyrics (she didn't want to talk about the abuse but confirmed this song was about him). And his abuse of his ex-wife was stated as irrefutable evidence in their recent divorce case; the judge gave her sole custody of their kids because he couldn't be trusted.
My goodness, how we missed that heavenly voice for so long. A big shout for Amy Lee from Alexandria, Egypt.
She just doesn't care about her fans
@@hoomanjafari4633 Why would you say such thing?
@@user-dy3yv4mh7p Because since she gave birth to her child she almost gave up singing and Evanescence was practically dissolved for years.Her last "real" album was back in 2011 and since then there wasn't something that make us "wow !" like almost all her albums.
BTW I'm sorry if I upset you, I didn't mean to offend her I just said the truth.
You didn't offend or upset me at all, it is your opinion and I totally respect it. Though I think Amy Lee wouldn't do such thing unless she has a good reason for it, maybe having a child and taking care of a family was too much on her, or it could be another reason that we don't know of.
My love for Amy and Evanescence is endless though, they will be the greatest for me no matter what.
Thank you for replying and for being very polite, I really appreciate it.
@@user-dy3yv4mh7p You're totally right, maybe there are reasons that we're not aware of but we would be so happy if Amy could tell us about these reasons or at least mention them implicitly.
Thank you for such a thoughtful comment.
This song reminds me thousand times I've been humilliated. In a lot of senses . Raw reality . This touched my heart . Evanescence songs touch me deeply and I know I'm not the only one !
I'm totally with you
Any wrote this about the abusive from former bandmate Ben
Listening to this song again feels like an old dusty, almost forgotten memory coming back to life
As a person who struggles with mental health. Her music makes me feel and hits hard and deep. I don't know what it is. Her songs like this just hit me in the heart. Beautiful song. One of my favorites.
Amy :( i'm 26 years old and i'm a fan since i was 11... your songs..(i'm crying) your songs are the only thing that keep me holding on...it touch me veery deeply... today i decided to let go all of my dreams and goals. coz i have zero energy to even breath.. i'm tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiired people i'm sooooo tired :'(
The amount of broken people around you is bigger than you think. You're not alone in this.. What are your dreams and goals? Why did you decide to give up when you wrote this?
Sending you love..
I want to know how you are doing! Please post an update :)
@@EvaJK my studies. My dreams of having a good life, myself actually...
Essa canção me faz lembrar de cada lágrimas que correram no meu rosto,por um ser desprezível que não teve humildade de pedir desculpas,mas não preciso delas mas pois hj sou muito grata por cada feridas que me causaram! Pois me fez acordar para o amor próprio , minha dose diárias (amor próprio) ,hj sou grata pelo universo por ter passado cada humilhação, desprezo,irá,rancor, tentativas de suicídio e rir pra mim e dizer a mim mesmo que sou capaz de me fazer feliz e tornar alguém que saiba meu valor a sermos felizes!❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'm not a type of person who cry cause of a music but this one, is the only one who made me cry.
DAMN. Even that I stopped to hear them like 10 years ago or so, I always say "she's my top favorite vocalist ever" Even tho I heard Mariah Carey, Cristina Aguilera, Sia, etc. Damn, her voice tone is just increidbly amazing and deep, that's insane and her range of course is absolutely amazing, she sings high notes with such power and deep, with a right technique. She will always be my fav vocalist of all times.
Christina Aguilera and Evanescence are so AMAZING, i truly love them both.
For a vocalist that goes beyond the usual pop techniques, check out Floor Jansen, especially her last album with Nightwish but also pretty much anything she's done. Gorgeous, delicate, operatic, intimate, belting, growls… she does it all with character.
@@felixmarques In addition to that, Check out a band called Halestorm, the lead vocalist Lzzy Hale has such a powerful and absolutely AMAZING voice! :)
This song makes me feel deep emotions that I thought I was over with. He will always be in my heart, but he hurt me emotionally and mentally. Great song!
"But you held me down and screamed you wanted me to die"
Such words, coming from the mouth of someone who was supposed to love you. That hurts like sharp knives deep into your chest.
And Amy's voice clearly shows it.
And youll never hurt me again...
So much emotion in one song.. bless you Amy.
I love this song so much, I get chills hearing Amy's voice ❤
I instantly fell in love with this song after hearing it the first time. One of their best songs for certain, the raw emotion and power behind every lyric resonates in the innermost parts of my core. Beauty truly can grow from the darkest and most painful areas in our lives. Thank you Amy and the rest of the band for making my life a little easier to live.
its about surviving narcissistic abuse
Today I sang this song to myself. It was both painful and relieving at once.
GOODNESS, I haven't heard this song in YEARS. Just as beautiful as I remembered
You can’t cry when you are listening this song... so pure and dark.
I love you Amy, more than my life
That is such an understatement specially when you ask from people who have suffered abuse no matter the kind. This song shatters all their walls to bring out the pain!
OMMGGGG !! HER VOICE IS SO CHILL
I remember listening to this song constantly when I was younger. It's still as beautiful as it was the first time I heard it and even more relevant now much more than it was now that I'm much older. You're worth so much more than how some people try to make you believe ❤
I love this song so much. 💜
Nice piano 🌈 powerful voice 💣
"Então corra, corra, corra...
E me odeie se te faz sentir bem
Eu não consigo mais ouvir seus gritos
Você mentiu para mim
Mas eu amadureci agora
E eu não vou pagar por isso,querido
Reivindicando minha resposta
Não ligo se quebrar a porta
Eu encontrei meu caminho de saída...
E você nunca mais irá me ferir de novo."
I remember when this album came out. My sister was so excited to get her hands on it, and I didnt even know who "Evanescence" was. Man am I glad she blasted her 2000's speaker set in her room! :D
This is so deep, it's like a poem 😍😍
This song is about me. I found my way out. I almost died, but I survived. I'm here. I'm alive. Love can make you insane when you love someone that doesn't love you.
A friend of mine sent me this two years ago, we aren’t friends anymore, but I found this again while cleaning out my phone. I think it’s for the best that we stopped being friends tbh, I have a lot of regrets from that time period and I’m trying to grow as a person so that I don’t make any more mistakes
I have heard all albums over and over how have I never heard this??
I'm crying...perfect song, perfect voice!
Come back to Brazil!!!
How can anyone not cry listening to this?
Idk, I just don't.
One of the most underrated Evanescence song. Amy's voice is beautiful but in this song...my god!
This song is the last song to waste on the men ( past 1997-2014) who no longer have my self worth, my love, my identity, and personal power. What you meant for my harm, the God of my destiny used for my greater good to turn my brokenness into such profuse love and boldness to flip it and use it for the greater good of mankind. Truly I did find a way out. The past is gone. I live for a passionate purpose the world has yet to see. I know my worth, strength and life path. I am on a fated destiny and just am reminded with songs like these how closed off and shut down with broken pain I was. I healed. I survived. I am stronger and transformed. If you are being emotionally abused, physically abused ...there is hope. You can get the support you need TODAY. Do not let your mind imprison and torment you with fear to stop you from having the true happiness you deserve. Just know, you are not alone. Many have been in a hiding and hurting place. They took the courage to step out and fight. Safely. You can contact your local Sexual Assault or Domestic Violence Shelter. There are trained men and mostly women who are equipped to give you the advice, support and offer a safe place to be and how to do it safely. Trust your intuition and listen. ❤️
2:33 god look at this beauty
Look? ;-;
@@Wizzard_2006yep
Fallen , The Open Door , Evanescence (album) too , I love your albums , This album is so perfect , please on CD please , Your music is so Perfect , ❤ I love you so much, i'm from Perú ❤❤❤
The sad thing is that I have personally felt every BIT of this...
This brings me back to my teen years growing up when i sat listening to the original album with "Hello" being my favourite song. This is just magical to hear now being 30. If this music helps me like the fallen album did growing up there is gonna be alot of people helped by these lyrics ! Still to this day i go by the lyrics " don't try to fix me im not broken"
I can feel it inside of my soul, always helps me to know who i am... in persepective is me healing my own scars.
Holy cow this is a beautiful masterpiece!!! Wow I can't believe I found this just now.
This song will always have a special place in my heart. Always. Keep inspiring us and keep making us feel these emotions.. lots of ❤ from 🇬🇷
One of my favourites. Not so because of words, but music... Almost all of the best ones are from the old albums, for me.
Amy canta com a alma e encanta nossos corações com tanta beleza vocal e melodia,alguém a ama também?❤
Amy Lee you are an Angel wether you know it or not. Thank you for all the music you’ve made. True inspiration.
RIP SAYEL HASSAN. Miss and love you little bro.
RIP MATTHEW GIBSON. Love you.
She sings directly to my soul and how so personal I feel she makes each song of hers come alive within my heart. No One could of done a better job. Thank you for amazing voice and speaking to my heavenly spirit.
A maioria dos fãs existentes de Evanescence estão no Brasil, nunca serão esquecidos ;)
Verdade! E eles estarão acalmando minha alma para sempre.
Verdade gente!
Don't have any words about that amazing song....just, feeling like my Hart will explode at millions pieces. 😢
Música tocou lá na alma , que voz é essa pqp , algum BR ai escutando ? Solta o like
Lucas Santos aqui
BR DOMINANDO O MUNDO EVANESCENCE !
Como não escutar, como não amar, como não sentir a música tocando a alma? Coisas que o Evans consegue.
Essa música é muito boa!
Br Amoo Amy Lee
I'll make my own way...
And you never hurt me again..
Beautiful song 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Favorite song. It's just wow ❤
Uma das melodias mais lindas do Evanescence. Me deixa extremamente maravilhado
Give Unto Me, Hello, Understanding, October, You, e claro...My Immortal!
One of my favorite of Amy's melodies. Check out other songs like Lost in Paradise, Breathe No More, Like You, Swimming Home, Secret Door, Far From Heaven
This song is so beautiful.
And people still talk about Ben Moody and why can't they write music together again or that Amy was a bitch and made him leave.. Have you even heard this song guys? Do you understand the lyrics? Can't you feel her pain? Propably the most raw, honest, personal song Amy has ever released (next to hello and good enough). It literally sounds like she recorded it once with her piano, got all her angst and pain out there and then put this song to rest along with her feelings..
Indeed I read that she recorded this song "live" in her studio, I mean it like it was recorded in one take, you can hear some lil noises in the background sometimes, her breathing and other stuff that give that raw feeling
Still feel sad for Ben though. It's Amy that should've left and formed her own band. Ben was a much better songwriter than her.
Sadly, Ben's songs are much more effective if it was Amy singing them.
@@reayanez I disagree.. Amy was the face of the band even back then and people were listening to the band mainly attracted by her voice. There would never be a brand name "Evanescence" without her in it. Ben himself even said years later in an open letter that he did try to force her to leave but regrets doing that and would hate to have someone else sing HER lyrics. He also says in the same letter that he was being an ass to Amy during that time and she was only kind to him (I guess that confirms this song here and Amy's part of the story doesn't it?). As for being sad, well yes it is sad two people fell so apart from each other that couldnt stand each other anymore and it is sad that they were a great match musically but will never write again. However Ben did have a well deserved good amount of success after leaving as a songwriter but I still like Amy's stuff more.
My whole point is in a way he got what he deserved at the time but it looks like it worked great for both of them!
@@reayanez I don't, abusive men get no sympathy from me. I sincerely hope he learnt his lesson, as he's married with a kid now. It's Amy I've always felt sad for, reading interviews of hers over the years it's always struck me as she hasn't got a lot of self confidence, that deep down she's always felt like she's not good enough, and that makes me feel all sorts of things. That kind of abuse can take decades to heal from. I think she's finally happy, and healthy, and it's about bloody time. He's done not a lot in the last decade, Evanescence are still active, and the current line up are fabulous, they just have such a good vibe going on and I love it.
She also ran David off. She was not a peach in those early days.
Wow! This was so beautiful and sad. Loved the piano melody with Amy´s amazing voice. Simply beautiful.
This has become one of my favorite Evanescence songs. :)
I know this is going to sound wrong but, the pain in this song is BEAUTIFUL! I'm not sure there is any other group and singer (Amy Lee), who could have made this song work as well. Now to try and talk my better half into going to see you guys in Clarkston this summer!
When she sings "Without your senseless hate" and "I'm not buying baby" her voice reaches pure etheral levels
There is so much turmoil and pain in this beautiful track that it can't ever hope to be put into words any other way
You are Amy the most precious angel God have sent us. Listening to you is dreaming the perfect land whe should live on...keep dream dear angel
To everyone, who's here getting over someone. We can do this! Day by day!
EVANESCENCE.....FOREVER...2018...AMY LEE ♥♥♥♥.
I grew up listening to evenescence. I remember during my school days I had saved money to buy Lithium, when music was not for free. Feels so nostalgic. Thnx for coming back Amy Lee .
evanescence 😁😁❤
Listenning to this song since 2007... Finally an official audio + lyrics. ❤️
Essa música deveria estar no Synthesis Tour
This song is so beautifully worded with such emotions. After years, this song still hits close to home. It brings back memories to my abusive father, even though he didn’t physically abuse us, he still emotionally and verbally did. The pain and strength it took to leave and move on wasn’t easy but worth it. Haven’t seen him in years 🖤
The line “Honey you know, you know I’d never hurt you that way.” Is what does me in every time. Impossible not to listen to this without crying.
It touches my heart ❤️✨
Blessings from Puerto Rico. I love it!!!
Φωνή και μουσική που σε ταξιδεύει στα υπέροχα μονοπάτια του μυαλού!
Whenever I'm feeling anxious, I turn this song on and sing like I'm yelling at it. I swear it works everytime
Not just another song, one I can feel. What i like
Pretty in your pain....beautiful lyrics
And I know, I know I'll have to watch them pass away 😭💜
Aaaah manooo eu vou chorar na moral😻😭😭😭❤❤🎶
Eu amo essa banda dms
Hey Amy. I love you. Thank you for saving me from the guilt as a child. The guilt of taking my life. I love you forever. You were my first and last love. Every time people hate me I come back and smile because I don’t wanna run away from you.
Acordar ouvindo essa música não tem coisa melhor amo Evanescence.
BOUNDARIES!!! YALL NEED BOUNDARIES!!
Na minha opinião, essa é a canção mais triste e dolorosamente linda da banda. 😢❤ Uma das minhas favoritas, embora sempre acabe comigo emocionalmente rsrs
Eu sempre choro com essa musica, mds ♥
Essa música é tão linda ❤
love song Brazil
“Honey you know, you know I’d never hurt you that way
You’re just so pretty in your pain”
Those of us that have been in an abusive relationship.. the exhausting cycle of love hate love hate. This part gets to me..
Amo como la voz, la letra, la melodía del piano te van destruyendo poco a poco, hasta llorar, pero al final, hay una voz de aliento, una esperanza, Amy Lee es simplemente increíble.
This isn't just music This is also art!
So lovely to hear.
Glad to have found this, great work by Amy
Remember: cut ties with toxic people in your life. They're not worth it, you deserve so much better
Amy Lee!!! Te amo, te amo, te amo...!!!!
god im 50 and this band hits it on for alot of things in my life bad to good
Essa música é lindíssima, dá até vontade de chorar.
Damn, this one is surely about someone in particular. Very relieving song 🎀
It was dedicated to Ben Moody. Former Evanescence member and the one who co-wrote all songs from 97 to 2003 with Amy, actually they were more like a duo, till David Hodges joined them in 2000 for keyboard strings, programming and some backing vocals, but the main force and composers of each song were Amy and Ben. They both dated at the beggining but didn't work out as a couple, still they worked fine as musicians and hence why they were together till fame came very soon and out of nowhere in their lifes with their debut album being a hit worlwide and eventually it tear apart both of their "friendship" or what was left to it and he left. The way he did was after a big fight with Amy were it is believed he threaten her and told her horrible things, later we knew that Ben was bipolar but he wasn't prescriped as one, still his relationship with the crew band and Amy for the most part was already ruined when the touring life began, it was the best thing he could've done to left bc it would have just ended in a disbanded case and no more Evanescence would've been able to continue. He wrote the song 10.22 for Amy but later on he saw the lyrics talked more about him rather than Amy, in between of that and the second Ev's album Amy wrote with Terry Balsamo she did this song as a response to the 10.22 song. It is a very sad story how friends turned into a couple, that turned into a toxic relationship, then both became succesful and famous and then turned into the worst enemies while being on tour and at the same time having their music sounding everywhere around the world and the media talking about how they both were "best friends" when at that time they were nothing but strangers. Talk about feeling pressure
Palma stop spreading false info
@@xPaLmaaHx That is not entirely correct. They briefly dated as teens. Amy said they were somewhat friends only at the start when they were young teens, but the friendship didn't last and they grew apart. That didn't happen during Fallen, but years before. His toxic controlling nature, his gaslighting, and his abuse tore that early friendship apart. Ben was and is an abuser; not only was physicaIIy and mentally abusive to Amy for years but also to his ex-wife who recently divorced him due to his abuse and drug use. Ben was destroying Ev from within with his rampant toxicity and left mid-tour. He went to work with pop stars. Ben said his song 10/22 was him talking about himself, not Amy or anyone else. Lastly, Amy wrote this song The Last Song I'm Wasting On You about her experience with his years-long physical and mental abuse and her trying to heal from that. She did not write it in response to anything, she wrote it during the 2003-2004 tour.
