Bring Me To Life

I was lucky enough to spend the long weekend doing lots of NOTHING. Gotta love it when you can do that. I've been feeling far too flat for far too long. Some might say it's been a case of being sick and tired of being sick and tired. At any rate, I really do feel like I've managed to recharge my batteries.

Today's tune comes from Evanescence, ultimately their break out hit, "Bring Me To Life". Although I must confess, I've got the Yu-Gi-Oh mash up on my mind. One of the movies I spent my time watching over the weekend.

I like this one mostly because it's so very similar to "Embracing Space" by Regicide. Although in this case it's not so much insanity that you're trying to break free from but perhaps the shell that we put around ourselves leaving us hollow and empty. Could anything really be worse than the nothingness that we can become?

Sometimes we need just that breath of fresh air to breathe new life into something.

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb,
Without a soul (without)
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back....home

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I Can't Wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe~ into me and make me real
Bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I Can't Wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become

(Bring me to life)
I've been living a lie,there's nothing inside
(Bring me to life)
Frozen inside without your touch,
Without your love,darling
Only you are the life, among the dead

All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me

I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more!
Bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I Can't Wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
(Bring me to life)

I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside!
(Bring me to life.)

Time to wake up...
