Evanescence was the first time I felt that. I got it from Nine Inch Nails my whole life but didn't know why I loved them so much until Amy Lee started providing commentary on my personal story. Now I am getting it from Icon, and you can bet your ass I'll be dragging my partner to that show on Sunday. 😎
If you ever had a chance to read her book she talks about how they used to be signed up under a christian music record lable and the lable company wanted them to make the songs more religious etc and she really hated that cause she wanted to sing from the heart but being under that lable made her feel constricted you what she could say in her lyrics and what they wanted her to say in her lyrics. It made her feel like she was misleading the fans she gained because her music was not about Christianity or being a Christian and she did not want to go in that direction which is why they left and became independent artists. So it makes sense for her to say she feels like she is feeding us lies, there is reddit forums of people being disappointed in lyric choices or song themes because “that’s not very christian of them, that’s distasteful for Christians/Christian band” again which is all the why she wanted to and they eventually did leave from that record lable. I think she wrote a blog about it and a good amount of their fans were upset when they found out lol
I would argue they'd make the same amount of sense. "Feed someone their lines" is a term coming from drama, since often during plays there is a hidden person with a script that tells actors what to say in case they forget the text. If we assume the song says "feeding you lies", it means that the singer is deceiving the other person. If we assume the song says "feeding you lines", it means that the singer is conditioning the other person to say exactly what she wants to hear, turning the other person into a "character" of sorts.
This is such a great lyric video to go with the song. I don't know about anyone else but it leaves me inspired it's just acting on the inspiration I'm having trouble with:p
Brend if someones feeding u lies its like someone asking "are u okay" and ur not but u say "just tired" or "im fine" ur feeding them lines which in some cases are lies... 'cause some people really might really be okay but others are falling apart on the inside... if that makes any sense...
Brend Definition of feed (someone) a line informal : to tell (someone) a story or an explanation that is not true He fed me a line about how he was late because his car broke down.
Here I am waiting for my simple but inevitable dream whilst listening to this song. Unfortunately I can only begin after the prerequisites are present, but this song makes the wait more bareable.
Nah, only the first 5secs until the drop, then the bass ruins the techno a bit. Honestly, by the intro, I was expecting a whole lot more from this song but I still quite like it
+Confusing Narwhal Pretty sure its dedicated to her fans... thats why shes talking about being uninspired... etc "Holding on tight to yesterday's dream Some things are worth fighting for All we need are hearts like yours" the "we" is the band...
But they're concepts! "Undream" and "Unfeel" are concepts! Besides, it's a song, it's meant to make sense and evoke feeling. Oh well. There will always be critics. :-)

I feel so infuriated that almost everyone can write their own songs better than me. I wrote a lullaby and it ended up very catchy. And that's kinda bad
Great song. Hate the video. It's way too bright and flashy and makes my eyes hurt. I also like seeing the lyrics on the screen a little before they're said in the song, instead of at the same time or late. The font was also a little hard to read. I did like some of the effects you did with the words other than that. I'm not trying to be mean here, just some constructive criticism for any videos you may create in the future.
I just started listening to Icon For Hire and I cannot stop lol.
same....i cannot stop trying to get everyone i know lisening to it.
dude me too
btw nice bacca
Derp meme IKR?!
But maybe it's better that way. Because then they can discover it themselves! XD
imagine if icon for hire and hollywood undead did a collaboration
the world would end in fire
Help, I'm addicted also.
I hear in the 80's people often felt artists were singing to them directly, but not till i heard this song did i truly understand that feeling
You have no idea :)
Evanescence was the first time I felt that. I got it from Nine Inch Nails my whole life but didn't know why I loved them so much until Amy Lee started providing commentary on my personal story. Now I am getting it from Icon, and you can bet your ass I'll be dragging my partner to that show on Sunday. 😎
My favorite part is 0:00 - 4:00
What a coincidence mine too
Wow me too
When I hear this song, I look in the mirror and say "hearts like yours".... I want to be part of the better difference in this world!
same! i want to be the kind of person described in the song
you realize the song is literally Ariel, the singer and leader for Icon for Hire, addressing her fans and supporters, right?
Hence why I said "when I hear" it reminded me of a personal change
Sadie-Vaughn Ferreira Do you still say it?
I Don't want to be kind and nice.Always the good people suffers the most
Nice job on the lyrics video, you definitely captured the feel of the song.
Trista Peets Thanks!
i have loved every song i have listened to by her. i cant believe i havent heard of her sooner!
Me too
It's a band but ok...
You mean them. Icon For Hire is a band.
THE "NEVER" SERIOUSLY LOOKS LIKE "NEUER" AND I CANNOT STOP SAYING "NEUER"
WHY AM I JUST NOW DISCOVERING THIS SONG? I'VE KNOWN ICON FOR HIRE SINCE FOREVER AND I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THIS SONG EXISTED
Am I the only one that things that this would make an awesome amv?
+Nightro I Not any more.
+Nightro I I'm sure there is already an AMV with this song.
+Nightro I /watch?v=l3iL_xCjmLA here you go :)
creepypastas? ;)
roblox sarnae What about Creepypastas??? I don't get the relation
Shes absolutely amazing and absolutely gorgeous inside and out
3 days straight now, listening only Icon for hire. This is their best song. ":D
I love the beat. Amazing song!!
...So epic
Никола Трифуновић Thanks!
I thought it was "feel like I'm feeding you lies" I might be wrong but that's what it sounds like and it makes more sense.
If you ever had a chance to read her book she talks about how they used to be signed up under a christian music record lable and the lable company wanted them to make the songs more religious etc and she really hated that cause she wanted to sing from the heart but being under that lable made her feel constricted you what she could say in her lyrics and what they wanted her to say in her lyrics.

I hv been listening to this song for the past 3 hours
Where has this damn band been all my life?!
This is such a great lyric video to go with the song. I don't know about anyone else but it leaves me inspired it's just acting on the inspiration I'm having trouble with:p
My friend recommended me this song and im in love.
I love Icon For Hire. They are so great, and I think it is so amazing how much meaning is in every on of their songs.
Creatureofthenight16 They're amazing!
I know
She is!
Ah yes, the first Icon For Hire song I ever heard. I gotta thank my friend for showing me this.
Jesus loves you! Have a blessed day!
I always thought it said "feel like I'm feeding you lies"
Lyd Roob
Yea, I think it is. The lyrics are sometimes messed-they either take them off google, or they figure them out themselves, so..
it could be either honestly... they both make sense. lies, lines same difference
Brend if someones feeding u lies its like someone asking "are u okay" and ur not but u say "just tired" or "im fine" ur feeding them lines which in some cases are lies... 'cause some people really might really be okay but others are falling apart on the inside... if that makes any sense...

my friend said she didn't like it cos undream and unfeel aren't real words
Your friend needs a dictionary.
But they're concepts! "Undream" and "Unfeel" are concepts! Besides, it's a song, it's meant to make sense and evoke feeling. Oh well. There will always be critics. :-)
+Quiet Titanoboa She's not a critic, she just hates it all anyways.
GHOST TOWN PIC!
