  • Lyrics to the song Exodus by the american rock band, Evanescence.
    From the album, Evanescence EP.
    Lyrics:
    My black backpack stuffed with broken dreams
    Twenty bucks should get me through the week
    Never said a word of discontentment
    Thought it a thousand times but now
    I'm leaving home
    Here in the shadows
    I'm safe, I'm free
    I've nowhere else to go
    But I cannot stay where I don't belong
    Two months passed by and it's getting cold
    I know I'm not lost, I'm just alone
    But I won't cry, I won't give up, I can't go back now
    Waking up is knowing who you really are
    Here in the shadows
    I'm safe, I'm free
    I've nowhere else to go
    But I cannot stay where I don't belong
    In the shadows
    I'm safe, I'm free
    I've nowhere else to go
    But I cannot stay here
    Oh! Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
    So much more dismay in empty eyes
    **I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING**

      Hi Alison, Great! I'm happy for you. I wish I could say the same. At this moments I'm in war with myself. Those ghosts from the past keep haunting me. I think I can say I suffer from a hard depression. I sleep very badly. Sometimes I just stay up till 4am listening to Amy's voice. I know the band for almost 20 years. The have shaped me so hard even today they still do. Many people believe in God, I believe in Amy. For me she is a goddess. There are not enough words to say how much I owe her and how much I respect her. After 20 years she has become my drug I need to go on. I know its creepy and sad but that's the truth! I would die for her just to feel her arms around me as she could take away all my pain :-( Rediscovering all old songs including this one. Its like she knows how I feel. I know its not but there is hardly any song that I cannot relate too. Lets hope she will keep battling with me throughout the following years. Running back to the shadows I have created. Thank you Amy! Oh and not so long I ago, I almost reached my breaking point. I felt so low but lucky I have found a chat where I could write it all down. And yes Amy used that account. Will she ever read it? I hope not! I instructed her not to read anything, ignore it and just delete it all. Heck I told her to block me. As now I try to stop spamming her but it is so hard.... But Amy thanks for all! Take care, be well and go make many more songs! Sorry to reply after 5 years but better ever than never :-)

    This song describes my youth in a few simpel words and sentences...
    Every time I had to come trough the week with just 10 to 15 bucks, walking the streets, asking strangers for something to eat, being laugh at, called darkest words and names and being told to "start working like others!" with 15 years...
    It felt so lonesome, so painful.. I can't even find words for all these dark and deep feelings back then..
    The pain of getting told how lucky I am, that there are no parents to tell me when to come home and to be able to do what I want and to see their parents picking them up afterwards or if I was at some friends home, seeing their mothers caring for them, asking about their day and how school was, presenting a meal for them, sharing love and live with them..
    My heart got priced every single time I saw a functioning family, every time I saw a dad grabbing his little daughters hand, just to be remind of my own dad's suicide, my own mum going nearly insane afterwards, my brother drowning himself in alcohol and reminding myself about me.. Choosing the one path thatt won't destroy us all even further, but myself much harder..
    Nothing to eat, nowhere to go and no one to rely on.. And nothing but misunderstanding and harsh judgment anywhere I went..
    Yeah... This song is my origin...

      Lol maybe back in 1998 when this ep came out. I read somewhere that amy cringes when she hears these lyrics. While i agree they are a little cheesy (My black backpack stuffed with broken dreams), i think musically, this is one of the best of the pre wind-up songs. It definitely shows amy's piano skills; ive been learning it for years and im just now getting the chorus right! That 1-2-3 part for anyone who knows what im talking about. Anyway, its always nice when Amy shows off her technical abilities on the piano and plays complicated stuff. Thanks to ThatVideoMakingKid for uploading these. I remember when Evanescence first got big, it was nearly impossible to find good versions of these songs online; i remember going crazy trying to find a full version of Breathe No More without skips on Limewire lol) People in Little Rock had just discovered how much their old copies of Origin were worth. *Sighs* what i wouldnt give to relive the early 2000s

    These songs in the ep and origins kinda have the same amy lee grunge sound yet they are so different. I dont know how she comes up with so many songs with different rifts but still all heart-tug worthy. I've always been so happy with myself for being able to sing the "who you really are" part of this song pitch perfect. Although my voice sucks its very satisfying to get the notes right in this part.
