TWO FOR TUESDAY

Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world. For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.

Going Under
Evanesence

Now I will tell you
What I’ve done for you
Fifty thousand tears I’ve cried
Screaming
Deceiving
And bleeding for you
And you still won’t hear me

Going under

Don’t want your hand this time
I’ll save myself
Maybe I’ll wake up for once
Not tormented daily
Defeated by you
Just when I thought
I reached the bottom

I’m
Dying
Again

I’m going under
I’m going under
Drowning in you
Drowning in you
I’m falling forever
Falling forever
I’ve got to break through
I’m going under

Blurring
And stirring
The truth
And the lies
So I don’t know what’s real
And what’s not
So I don’t know what’s real
And what’s not
Always confusing the thoughts
In my head
So I can’t trust myself anymore

I’m
Dying
Again

I’m going under
I’m going under
Drowning in you
Drowning in you
I’m falling forever
Falling forever
I’ve got to break through

So go on and scream
Scream at me
I’m so far away
I won’t be broken again
I’ve got to breathe
I can’t keep going under

I’m
Dying
Again

I’m going under
I’m going under
Drowning in you
Drowning in you
I’m falling forever
Falling forever
I’ve got to break through
I’m going under
Going under
Going under
Drowning in you
I’m going under

Bring Me To Life
Evanesence
How can you see into my eyes
Like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I’ve become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there
And lead it back home

Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can’t wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
Call my name
And save me from the dark
Wake me up
Bid my blood to run
I can’t wake up
Before I come undone
Save me
Save from the nothing I’ve become

Now that I know what I’m without
You can’t just leave me
Breathe into me
And make me real
Bring me to life

Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can’t wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
Call my name
And save me from the dark
Wake me up
Bid my blood to run
I can’t wake up
Before I come undone
Save me
Save me from the nothing I’ve become

I’ve been living a lie
There’s nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love darling
Only you are the life among the dead

At this time
I can’t believe I couldn’t see
Kept in the dark
But you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without thought
Without voice
Without a soul
Don’t let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can’t wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
Call my name
And save me from the dark
Wake me up
Bid my blood to run
I can’t wake up
Before I come undone
Save me
Save me from the nothing I’ve become

I’ve been living a lie
There’s nothing inside
Bring me to life

  1. This song brought me back to the Light after my best friend died suddenly. Kiddies couldn't believe what was blaring through my headphones.

  2. Thank you so very much for that, my dear Deb!!! For I am often tormented with the thought that I am just plain insane for even suggesting that our Heavenly Father would have anything to do with that kind of music--let alone actually speak through it in one way or another, and then He sends someone like you around who has been allowed and enabled to hear it too.
