Exodus Lyrics - Evanescence
Review The Song (8)
My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams
20 bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
Fought it a thousand times but now
I'm leaving home
[CHORUS:]
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 pass by and it's getting cold
I know I'm not lost
I am 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
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes
20 bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
Fought it a thousand times but now
I'm leaving home
[CHORUS:]
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 pass by and it's getting cold
I know I'm not lost
I am 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
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes

Evanescence ROCKS!!!! | Reviewer: Allie | 12/10/2007
I am a huge Evanescence fan and this is one of my favorite songs. Amy Lee's vocals are amazing. It makes you wonder what other awesome songs have been sung by people who aren't even famous and by people before they were famous.

This Is Great! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/15/2006
This song is a great song and the lyrics seem to reflect her pain and my pain. It is bittersweet and... its just excellent. Amy, you are a great singer! (love your new album y the way!)
Almost unbearably poignant | Reviewer: Mogs | 9/3/2005
Such a beautiful, bittersweet song, makes me tear up every time. Amy's vocals are beautiful and filled with wistfulness and pain, and the piano accompaniment is amazing.
