[Verse 1]
I believe in us
I can't remember why I believe in us
These seeds of the past, they keep springing up
Love begins with trust
But we can't be trusted

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, the future starts with us

[Chorus 1]
Blind belief, are you afraid to see
That our fathers were wrong?
We hold the key to redemption
Let icons fall

[Verse 2]
Dare to break away
Tear down this broken machine
Escape your cage
We're falling to pieces

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh, the future’s rising up

[Chorus 2]
Blind belief, are you afraid to see
That our fathers were wrong?
We hold the key to redemption
Let icons fall

[Bridge]
Push through the pain
Unbreak this system
Arms of self-sacrifice
Lay them down
Lay 'em down, lay 'em down, lay 'em down, lay 'em down

[Chorus 3]
Blind belief, are you afraid to see
That our fathers were wrong?
We hold the key to redemption
Love over all
We hold the key to redemption
Love over all

Evanescence is an American rock band founded in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1995 by singer/pianist Amy Lee and guitarist Ben Moody. Evanescence was originally promoted in Christian stores. Later, the band made it clear they did not want to be considered part of the Christian rock genre, like fellow Wind-up Records artists Creed. Some of their most popular hits “Bring Me to Life,” “My Immortal,” and “What You Want.”

In 2014, the band parted ways with their long-term record label Wind-Up and became independent artists. In late 2016, they released a Ultimate Collection box set featuring all their albums along with the 2000 demo album Origin and a B-sides compilation Lost Whispers.

In November 2017, they released their fourth album, Synthesis, featuring a reimagining of some of their past songs plus two new original songs with the spotlight on full orchestra and electronics.
