== General Information ==
''Written by: [[A. Lee]] and [[B. Moody]]''

Little is known about this unreleased song except that it is the fastest Evanescence song in terms of tempo. Recorded during 2001-2002 demo sessions.

The background choir sings a line from [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lacrimosa_%28Requiem%29&oldid=62873763 W.A. Mozart's Lacrimosa]. This is unusual because [[Evanescence]] recorded the Mozart Lacrimosa on their [[The Open Door|Open Door]] song called [[Lacrymosa]].

== Lyrics ==

I'd give anything to give me to you 
Can you forget the world that you thought you knew 
 
If you want me 
Come and find me ''[I'm here for you]'' 
Nothing's stopping you 
So please release me 
 
I'll believe all your lies 
Just pretend you love me 
Make believe, close your eyes 
I'll be anything for you 
 
Nothing left to make me feel anymore 
There's only you and everyday I need more 
 
''[If you want me]''If you want me 
''[Come and find me]'' Come and find me 
''[Anything you want me to be]'' I'll do anything ''[anything]'' you say 
''[For you]'' Just tell me 
 
I'll believe all your lies 
Just pretend you love me 
Make believe, close your eyes 
I'll be anything for you 
I'll believe all your lies 
Just pretend you love me 
Make believe, close your eyes 
I'll be anything for you 
 
Anything for you 
 
I'll become your earth and sky 
Forever never die 
I'll be 
Everything you need 
 
I'll believe all your lies 
Just pretend you love me 
Make believe, close your eyes 
I'll be anything for you 
I'll believe all your lies 
Just pretend you love me 
Make believe, close your eyes 
I'll be anything for you

Cloud Nine

{{Songs}}{{lang}}
== General Information ==

Written by: ''[[A. Lee]] and [[T. Balsamo]]''

An article describes it as "diving into the soundtrack of a dark movie, with Amy’s mumbling and singing that lightens us up. The very gloomy atmosphere lasts throughout the whole song. DJ Lethal’s samples once again perfectly match with the song."

During the Chile 2007 concert, Amy lost her voice doing this song, which is probably the reason they stopped playing this song so soon.

Amy's description of the song: <ref>C. Bottomley. [http://www.vh1.com/news/articles/1540914/story.jhtml Evanescence: Amy Lee Explains the New Songs] - VH1.com</ref>

{{quote|It's about breaking up. There are a lot of relationship struggles on the record. I always write about what I was feeling, because then it's genuine. I was struggling with a relationship and felt like a waste of space. The first lyric says it all, 'If you want to live, let live/ If you want to go, let go/ What are we doing here?/ Because I can live without you.'}}

== Lyrics ==
If you wanna live, let live 
If you wanna go, let go 
I'm not afraid to dream 
To sleep, sleep forever 
I don't need to touch the sky 
I just want to feel that high 
And you refuse to lift me 
 
Guess it wasn't real after all 
Guess it wasn't real all along 
''[I'm all alone]'' 
 
If I fall and all is lost 
It's where I belong 
 
If you wanna live, let live 
If you wanna go, let go 
I'm never gonna be your sweet, sweet surrender 
 
Guess it wasn't real after all 
Guess it wasn't real all along 
''[I'm all alone]'' 
 
If I fall and all is lost 
No light to lead the way 
''[Never thought that it would end up this way]'' 
Remember that all alone 
Is where I belong 
 
In a dream 
Will you give your love to me? 
Beg my broken heart to beat 
Save my life 
Change my mind 
 
If I fall and all is lost 
No light to lead the way 
''[Never thought that it would end this way]'' 
Remember that all alone 
Is where I belong

Tourniquet

2009-02-12T23:32:37Z

Dowsiewuwu:

{{Songs}}{{lang}}
== General Information ==

''Written by: [[A. Lee]], [[B. Moody]], [[D. Hodges]] and [[R. Gray]]''

Originally recorded as a demo and revamped as track #6 on Fallen. Rocky Gray is credited with writing the song for his band [[Soul Embraced]] (The original, titled '''"My Tourniquet"''', was a track on an album called "For the Incomplete") and the rest of Evanescence reworked it for Fallen; Amy wrote a melody and a whole other second verse. If the song was released as a single (it would have possibly been released as a double A-side with Imaginary), the videos for the songs could have been very similar because of the outro of Tourniquet which links to the Intro of Imaginary.

On Fallen this track is titled 'Tourniquet' but on 2002 Demos it's called 'My Tourniquet'.

On Fallen version of the song Amy screams ''"I want to die"''. On demo versions it's a sample by Claire Danes from [http://imdb.com/title/tt0117509/ the Danes/DiCaprio movie version of ''Romeo & Juliet''] saying "I long to die"<ref>[http://evanescencereference.info/music/downloads/etc/clips/Tell%20Me%20Not%20Father.mp3 Here] is the recorded dialogue from the movie</ref>.

== Lyrics ==
=== Fallen Version ===
I tried to kill the pain 
But only brought more ''[so much more]'' 
I lay dying 
And I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal 
 
I'm dying ''[dying]'' 
Praying ''[praying]'' 
Bleeding ''[bleeding]'' 
And screaming 
Am I too lost to be saved? 
Am I too lost? 
 
My God, my tourniquet 
Return to me salvation 
My God, my tourniquet 
Return to me salvation 
 
Do you remember me? 
Lost for so long 
Will you be on the other side? 
Or will you forget me? 
 
I'm dying ''[dying]'' 
Praying ''[praying]'' 
Bleeding ''[bleeding]'' 
And screaming 
Am I too lost to be saved? 
Am I too lost? 
 
My God, my tourniquet 
Return to me salvation 
My God, my tourniquet 
Return to me salvation 
 
''I want to die'' 
 
My God, my tourniquet 
Return to me salvation 
My God, my tourniquet 
Return to me salvation 
 
My wounds cry for the grave 
My soul cries for deliverance 
Will I be denied? 
Christ ''[christ]''

''Return to our salvation'' 
''Return to our salvation''
