[Intro]
Three, two, one, zero

[Verse 1]
There is no way back this time
What is real and what is mine?
Ooh, survival hurts

[Verse 2]
Lose myself or lose my mind
Every time I close my eyes
Ooh, survival hurts

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But I keep breathing in, I'm alive

[Chorus 1]
I'm not fine
I don't know if I will be alright
But I have to try
I know you're with me, so what if we do fall apart?
Give into all that we are
And let all the broken pieces shine
(Shine, shine, shine, shine...)

[Verse 3]
Shuttered inside, looking out
Everything's turned upside down
Ooh, we're not the first

[Verse 4]
How can we ever be us?
Wondering who we can trust
Ooh, survival hurts

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I'm not giving in, I'm alive

[Chorus 2]
I'm not fine
I don't know if I will be alright
But I have to try
I know you're with me, so what if we do fall apart?
Give into all that we are
And let all the broken pieces come alive

[Chorus 3]
I don't know if I will ever be alright
But I have to try...
And I know you're with me, so what if we do fall apart?
Shamelessly be who we are
And let all the broken pieces shine...
Oh-oh-oh…

[Outro]
(I'm alive)
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Let all the broken pieces shine
Let all the broken pieces shine
Let all the broken pieces shine
Let all the broken pieces... shine

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.
