[Chorus]
I don't need drugs
I'm already six feet low
Wasted on you
Waitin' for a miracle
I can't move on
Feels like we're frozen in time
I'm wasted on you
Just pass me the bitter truth

[Verse 1]
Love, don't you remember?
We were the ones
Nothing could ever change and
Love, it's easier not to believe
We have broken everything
But here we are

[Pre-Chorus]
Numb my head
'Til I can't think anymore
But I still feel the pain

[Chorus]
I don't need drugs
I'm already six feet low
Wasted on you
Waitin' for a miracle
I can't move on
Feels like we're frozen in time
I'm wasted on you
Just pass me the bitter truth

[Verse 2]
Once, this was a garden
This was a world
All of the nightmares stayed in the dark
A little too much time by yourself
And you become the enemy
Just look at us now

[Pre-Chorus]
Drowning slowly
Just to stay true

[Chorus]
I don't need drugs
I'm already six feet low
Wasted on you
Waitin' for a miracle
And I can't move on
I feel like we're frozen in time
I'm wasted on you
Just pass me the bitter truth

[Bridge]
Will I ever be the same? (Will I ever be the same?)
Am I strong enough to change? (Am I strong enough to change?)
Is it in my blood?
Shield my eyes to face the day (Shield my eyes to face the day)
Come too far to slip away (Come too far to slip away)
But it's killing me to go on without you

[Chorus]
I don't need drugs
I'm already six feet low
I'm wasted on you (Wasted on)
Waitin' for a miracle
I can't move on
Like we're frozen in time
I'm wasted on you (Wasted on you)
Just pass me the bitter truth

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.
