EVANESCENCE

- Sick Lyrics

Embrace the silence
Cause there's nothing that can change the way I feel
Taken all that you wanted
Now there's nothing that can change the way I feel

Hold on, little girl
Cause the end is soon to come

Sick of it all, Sick of it all
We will not follow
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
They don't understand how
Sick we are, Sick we are
Of this bottomless pit of lies
Behind closed eyes

Oceans between us
And there's nothing that can change the way I feel
I can still taste the poison
Every fall, every breath are ways to heal

Hold on, little girl
The end is soon to come

Sick of it all, Sick of it all
We will not follow
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
They don't understand how
Sick we are, Sick we are
Of this bottomless pit of lies
Behind closed eyes

Someday you'll know the feeling
Someday I will break through
And nothing you tell yourself
Will save us from the truth
Screaming out

Sick of it all, Sick of it all
We will not follow
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
They don't understand how
Sick we are, Sick we are
Of this bottomless pit of lies
Behind closed eyes

What is the meaning behind Sick lyrics?


When we interpret the meaning being expressed, the song "Sick" from Evanescence expresses very strongly the disenchantment and revolt against a world covered in lies, by employing the figure of speech of a 'bottomless pit of lies' to depict the artist's delusion of being encircled by these untruths. The lyrics of Sick mainly highlight the feelings of angst, despair, anger, and also the emotions of reflection and heartbreak. The song also acknowledges the necessity of frustration and rage, the permanence of emotions and the dream of a better world. The lyrics illustrate themes like frustration, anger and sense of being stuck, which may be pretty intense for the younger public. The frequent repeating of expressions such as 'Sick of it all' and 'bottomless pit of lies' indicates a degree of agony which might be disturbing for kids. Moreover, the expressions of 'poison' and 'wasted breath' connote a certain amount of negativity and hopelessness, which is intended for an adult rather than for a child audience.

Love Amy Lee, love the band, love every single songs of hers. I think this songs mean that she's depressed...she's sick, and she's sick of it all, sick of how people don't understand...I don't know xD

this song just screams depression,the singer is calling for help because she's smothering but nobody hears her cries. she's tired of feeling pain and is sick and tired of feeling like this.

@MutatedPear The talking about how Linkin Park sucks because they changed their style is getting old now... I think they're still awesome. Anyways, this song is amazing. It's my favorite one.

The new album is mind-blowing. Usually when bands' sound changes there is a big chance of it sucking (Linkin Park), but this is amazing!
