My Heart Is Broken Lyrics - Evanescence
Review The Song (3)
[I will wander till the end of time
Torn away from you]
I pulled away to face the pain
I close my eyes and drift away
Over the fear that I will never find a way to heal my soul
And I will wander till the end of time
Torn away from you
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us from sorrow's hold (over my heart)
I can't go on living this way
But I can't go back the way I came
chained to this fear that I will never find a way to heal my soul
And I will wander till the end of time
Half alive without you
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
deliver us
Change
Open your eyes to the light
I denied it all so long, oh so long
Say goodbye
Goodbye
My heart is broken
Release me, I can't hold on
Deliver us
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us from sorrow's hold
Torn away from you]
I pulled away to face the pain
I close my eyes and drift away
Over the fear that I will never find a way to heal my soul
And I will wander till the end of time
Torn away from you
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us from sorrow's hold (over my heart)
I can't go on living this way
But I can't go back the way I came
chained to this fear that I will never find a way to heal my soul
And I will wander till the end of time
Half alive without you
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
deliver us
Change
Open your eyes to the light
I denied it all so long, oh so long
Say goodbye
Goodbye
My heart is broken
Release me, I can't hold on
Deliver us
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us from sorrow's hold

I just watched the video of this on YouTube and all I can say is "Evanescence rocks!!" Their songs are so full of meaning and are very powerful. I glad they don't try to appeal to the masses and make their own kind of music. Also Amy's clothes in the video are awesome. Wish I had a dress like her's.

I absolutely love this track, actually I love the whole damn album! Really, I don't know how they keep improving, generally speaking, bands become progressively weaker after every album release, mainly due to pressure to 'commercialise' their sound and broaden their appeal. Evanescence have taken their music to a whole new level, taking great and making it extraordinarny. Who would've thought they could top Open Door or Fallen? I must admit, I didn't, but here they are, mesmerising us once again. 'My heart is broken' and their new album is a testament to their evolution as a band, a reminder that they may very well be the greatest band out there today. Amazing.
