I finally got around to listening to a new track by Evanescence. Apparently, Lindsey Stirling collaborated on this so I’m wondering why she was not credited like Evanescence featuring Lindsey Stirling.
Anyway, the lyrics…to me, at least the way I relate to it, speak of someone from the past. Someone whom you’ve crossed paths and you’ve crossed before. And there is that slight regret of how things turned out the way they did.
“I don’t know your heart.”
I don’t know your heart
I don’t know where to begin
But I could feel you erasing the rivers I’d drawn in
The more I stood still
The faster you were running
You don’t know how it feels crawling under your skin
So far, so far away
Don’t you know we could be
High or Low
You never fell beneath me
And I gave up on you, but I never forgot you
I can’t be your friend
Hold your hand while you bleed
There’s nothing left to give you
Nothing more I need
Time to let it sleep
Oh, the damage was real
But nothing cut me so deep I could not heal
Don’t you know we could be
High or Low
You never fell beneath me
And I gave up on you, but I never forgot you
High or Low
You never fell beneath me
And I gave up on you
But I never forgot
