Missing – Evanescence (2004)


Γράφει η Xplorer


Πάντα αγαπούσα και αγαπώ τους Evanescence. Και παρόλο που έχω γράψει για δύο άλμπουμ τους δεν έχει αναφερθεί ένα απ’ τα πιο αγαπημένα μου τραγούδια τους. Έχει κυκλοφορήσει με το live άλμπουμ τους Anywhere but Home το 2004 για το οποίο θα μιλήσω κάποια στιγμή και είναι ένα απ’ τα καλύτερα τραγούδια που έχει γράψει η Amy Lee με τον B. Moody και τον D. Hodges.  Είναι υπέροχο σε όλα τα “σήμεια”. Στη φωνή και τα φωνητικά, την μουσική και βέβαια σ’ αυτό που ξεχωρίζει στον στίχο του. Ο στίχος που ακούγεται σαν ψίθυρος και λέει “(ατο αριστερο ηχείο) Please, please, please... ( κ στο δεξί) Can you stop the fire? Can you stand to fight her? You can't stop the fire. You won't say the words” ακούγεται και στο τέλος μιας live version του Exodus. Όπως έχει δηλώσει η Amy Lee για το Missing “Some of our songs are self reflective but some of them are also story telling. For me that song was all about running away, but its poetry so please do take from it what you can...”.  Απλά το λατρεύω.

Can you stop, please? Can you stop the fire? Can you stand to fight her?
You can't stop the fire. You won't say the words. Please, Please
Please, please forgive me But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up and barely conscious you'll say to no one
"Isn't something missing?"
You won't cry for my absence I know...You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant? Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing? Isn't someone missing me?
Can you stop, please? Can you stop the fire?
You can't stop the fire, you won't say the words. Please, Please
Please, please forgive me But I won't be home again.
I know what you do to yourself; I breathe deep and cry out,
"Isn't something missing? Isn't someone missing me?"
And if I bleed, I'll bleed: Knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep, just to dream of you I’ll wake without you there.
Isn't something missing? Isn't something...?
Even though I'm the sacrifice, you won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me, I'm all alone.
Isn't something missing? Isn't someone missing me?
Can you stop the fire? Can you stand to fight her? You can't stop the fire.
You won't say the words. Please, Please
