''Written by: [[A. Lee]], [[B. Moody]], and [[D. Hodges]]''
 
'''''Going Under''''' is the first track and second single from [[Evanescence]]'s debut album, ''[[Fallen]]''. It was the last song written for album.<ref name="citylink" /><ref name="GUlastsong" /> Amy wrote it about a relationship with an abusive boyfriend, which also inspired other songs on ''Fallen'',<ref name="blender2004" /> but it can be used to describe any type of abusive relationship. Lee said the song is about emerging from a "bad" relationship, explaining, "And when you're at the end of your rope, when you're at the point where you realize something has to change, that you can't go on living in the situation that you're in. It's cool. It's a very strong song."<ref name=mtvnews />
 
Amy noted that the line ''"Don’t want your hand this time/I’ll save myself"'' can be perceived as her own personal declaration of independence:
 
{{Quote|“I was just getting to that point where I was starting to change when I wrote that,” she says, “and I remember loving that line. From then on, for months, that was my favorite song. It’s the one song that isn’t desperate and asking for help from somebody else. I hear the rest of those songs now, and I almost get angry. I’m like, I don’t want to be saved. I want to save myself.”<ref name="citylink" />}}
 
In an interview with ''Spin'' in October 2006, Amy said:<ref name=spin />
{{quote|'''You’ve said that much of ''Fallen'', which you cowrote with Moody, is about being in an abusive relationship for three years.'''
Just listen to that statement: I went through an abusive relationship for three years. It’s weird to stay in an abusive relationship for so long. I guess sometimes music makes me hang on longer because it makes me feel like I’m getting [my feelings] out somehow, so I don’t actually have to move on. After I recorded those songs, I was listening to my own words on “Going Under.” When it goes to the chorus, what I would have loved to hear myself sing is “I’m leaving and I’m not going to put up with this anymore.” But instead the line is “I’m going under, drowing in you.” I was thinking to myself, “You know what you need to do, and you’re not doing it.”}}
 
''Going Under'' is Amy's favorite song from ''Fallen''.<ref name="arklatexmusic" /> The song was performed throughout Evanescence's [[Fallen Tour]] (2003-04),<ref name=noslowing /> [[The Open Door Tour]] (2006-07)<ref name=hammerstein /><ref name=pegasuslose /> and [[Evanescence Tour]] (2011-12).<ref name=hollywoodsoph /><ref name=take40 /><ref name=whiplash />
 
Amy wanted the song to be the first single from ''Fallen'', which would have been the world’s introduction to Evanescence, but their label opted for ''[[Bring Me to Life]]'' instead because the release of the [[Daredevil Soundtrack|''Daredevil'' soundtrack]] prompted the decision.<ref name="blunt">{{cite web|last=Young|first=David James|title=Opening Up with… Evanescence|url=https://www.bluntmag.com.au/music/opening-up-with-evanescence/|work=Blunt Magazine|date=April 26, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=The Oral History of Evanescence ft. Amy Lee|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ive0Nqv3p4A|work=Alternative Press|date=March 29, 2021}}</ref>
 
{{Quote|“That was the song that we really wanted,” admits Lee, reflecting on the song nearly 18 years after its release. “I love ‘Bring Me to Life’, obviously, but we had a great feeling about ‘Going Under’ being sent to radio before the album came out. When that didn’t happen, it kind of became like, ‘Okay, well at least when you hear the album, I want it to still be the first thing that you hear.’”
 
Amy acknowledges the song’s agency reflects both strength and vulnerability she experienced coming out of the relationship.
“It presents a place that I kind of got to later. I’m calling out for help – ‘I’m going under/I’m drowning in you’ – but it starts out with me being like, ‘You know what? I’m done with this. I’m stepping out of the situation.’ I think that attitude was something for me that I was more excited to project.”<ref name="blunt" />}}
 
In a ''Kerrang!'' cover story about the 20th anniversary of ''Fallen'', Amy discussed the song:
 
{{quote|“A debut single really matters because that’s your first impression. I wanted Going Under to be our first single because it was strong, empowered and one of the most recent songs we had written. I was like, ‘This is my best work, this is the most honest I’ve been!’ I wanted people to hear me stand up and not be a victim. The lyrics don’t start off saying I’m drowning, they’re saying, ''‘I don’t want your hand this time, I’ll save myself,’'' and that was the statement I wanted. I don’t want to be the girl who needs to be saved by a guy. But of course, there’s still a struggle there, it’s a story with an arc. It’s not an interesting story if I have no problem (''laughs'').”<ref name=kerrang2023 />}}
 
The handwritten lyrics released as part of the [[Fallen Journal#Fallen scrapbook|''Fallen'' scrapbook]] in 2013 feature crossed out lyrics on the second verse: ''"Spare me your insults / Deny me your (...)"''.
 
The [[Fallen Voice Notes|voice notes]] included on ''Fallen'''s 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition Box Set contain audio of Amy Lee working on the vocal melody of the song, as well as writing it on piano with alternate lyrics.

=== ''Fallen'' version ===
Now I will tell you what I've done for you<br>
Fifty thousand tears I've cried<br>
Screaming, deceiving and bleeding for you<br>
And you still won't hear me<br>
''[going under]''<BR>
<BR>
Don't want your hand<br>
This time I'll save myself<br>
Maybe I'll wake up for once ''[wake up for once]''<br>
Not tormented daily defeated by you<br>
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom<br>
I'm dying again<br>

I'm going under ''[going under]''<br>
Drowning in you ''[drowning in you]''<br>
I'm falling forever ''[falling forever]''<br>

I won't be broken again ''[again]''<br>

I can't keep going under<br>

I'm going under ''[going under]''<br>
Drowning in you ''[drowning in you]''<br>

== Video ==
[[Image:GoingUnderVideo.gif|right|200px|Video]]
The video is a live-performance/action video and was directed by [[Philip Stolzl|Philip Stölzl]]. The video was filmed in Berlin, Germany, but most of it was filmed in Los Angeles, California in May of 2003.<ref name=mtvnews /> It follows the band performing at what can be assumed is a concert in which they’re the headliners, Amy swimming and singing underwater, and Ben being questioned relentlessly by the media (the media’s constant questions about the band’s religious affiliation inspired that part in the video). ''Evil Dead'', one of Ben’s favorite movies, inspires the use of the zombies in the video{{fact}}; normal people attending the gig transform into said zombies throughout the course of the video. The underwater scene was Amy's idea. She also designed two of the costumes she's wearing in the video. The crimson corset cost her $2,500, the biggest amount of money she’d ever spent on a piece of clothing. The other outfit had been stitched by Amy herself. "It's white and has a lot of shreds. It reminds me of something someone who died would wear." The idea of them came to her while she was nursing an illness in a hotel in Los Angeles.<ref name=mtvnews />

In the light of ''Fallen''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 10th anniversary in 2013, Amy published the sketch for the corset she wore on the music video:

General information

Written by: A. Lee, B. Moody, and D. Hodges

Going Under is the first track and second single from Evanescence's debut album, Fallen. It was the last song written for album.[1][2] Amy wrote it about a relationship with an abusive boyfriend, which also inspired other songs on Fallen,[3] but it can be used to describe any type of abusive relationship. Lee said the song is about emerging from a "bad" relationship, explaining, "And when you're at the end of your rope, when you're at the point where you realize something has to change, that you can't go on living in the situation that you're in. It's cool. It's a very strong song."[4]

Amy noted that the line "Don’t want your hand this time/I’ll save myself" can be perceived as her own personal declaration of independence:

Vin1.jpg “I was just getting to that point where I was starting to change when I wrote that,” she says, “and I remember loving that line. From then on, for months, that was my favorite song. It’s the one song that isn’t desperate and asking for help from somebody else. I hear the rest of those songs now, and I almost get angry. I’m like, I don’t want to be saved. I want to save myself.”[1] Vin2.jpg


In an interview with Spin in October 2006, Amy said:[5]

Vin1.jpg You’ve said that much of Fallen, which you cowrote with Moody, is about being in an abusive relationship for three years.

Just listen to that statement: I went through an abusive relationship for three years. It’s weird to stay in an abusive relationship for so long. I guess sometimes music makes me hang on longer because it makes me feel like I’m getting [my feelings] out somehow, so I don’t actually have to move on. After I recorded those songs, I was listening to my own words on “Going Under.” When it goes to the chorus, what I would have loved to hear myself sing is “I’m leaving and I’m not going to put up with this anymore.” But instead the line is “I’m going under, drowing in you.” I was thinking to myself, “You know what you need to do, and you’re not doing it.”

Vin2.jpg


Going Under is Amy's favorite song from Fallen.[6] The song was performed throughout Evanescence's Fallen Tour (2003-04),[7] The Open Door Tour (2006-07)[8][9] and Evanescence Tour (2011-12).[10][11][12]

Amy wanted the song to be the first single from Fallen, which would have been the world’s introduction to Evanescence, but their label opted for Bring Me to Life instead because the release of the Daredevil soundtrack prompted the decision.[13][14]

Vin1.jpg “That was the song that we really wanted,” admits Lee, reflecting on the song nearly 18 years after its release. “I love ‘Bring Me to Life’, obviously, but we had a great feeling about ‘Going Under’ being sent to radio before the album came out. When that didn’t happen, it kind of became like, ‘Okay, well at least when you hear the album, I want it to still be the first thing that you hear.’”

Amy acknowledges the song’s agency reflects both strength and vulnerability she experienced coming out of the relationship. “It presents a place that I kind of got to later. I’m calling out for help – ‘I’m going under/I’m drowning in you’ – but it starts out with me being like, ‘You know what? I’m done with this. I’m stepping out of the situation.’ I think that attitude was something for me that I was more excited to project.”[13]

Vin2.jpg


In a Kerrang! cover story about the 20th anniversary of Fallen, Amy discussed the song:

Vin1.jpg “A debut single really matters because that’s your first impression. I wanted Going Under to be our first single because it was strong, empowered and one of the most recent songs we had written. I was like, ‘This is my best work, this is the most honest I’ve been!’ I wanted people to hear me stand up and not be a victim. The lyrics don’t start off saying I’m drowning, they’re saying, ‘I don’t want your hand this time, I’ll save myself,’ and that was the statement I wanted. I don’t want to be the girl who needs to be saved by a guy. But of course, there’s still a struggle there, it’s a story with an arc. It’s not an interesting story if I have no problem (laughs).”[15] Vin2.jpg


The handwritten lyrics released as part of the Fallen scrapbook in 2013 feature crossed out lyrics on the second verse: "Spare me your insults / Deny me your (...)".

The voice notes included on Fallen's 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition Box Set contain audio of Amy Lee working on the vocal melody of the song, as well as writing it on piano with alternate lyrics.

Lyrics

Fallen version

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 [wake up for once]
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom
I'm dying again

I'm going under [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
[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 [going under]
Drowning in you [drowning in you]
I'm falling forever [falling forever]
I've got to break through
I'm

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

I'm going under [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

Demo version

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'd reached the bottom
I'm dying again [I'm dying again]

I'm going under [going under]
Drowning in you [drowning in you]
I'm falling forever [falling forever]
I've got to break through
I'm [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
[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 dying again]

I'm going under [going under]
Drowning in you [drowning in you]
I'm falling forever [falling forever]
I've got to break through
I'm [I'm]

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

I'm going under [going under]
Drowning in you [drowning in you]
I'm falling forever [falling forever]

Video

Video

The video is a live-performance/action video and was directed by Philip Stölzl. The video was filmed in Berlin, Germany, but most of it was filmed in Los Angeles, California in May of 2003.[4] It follows the band performing at what can be assumed is a concert in which they’re the headliners, Amy swimming and singing underwater, and Ben being questioned relentlessly by the media (the media’s constant questions about the band’s religious affiliation inspired that part in the video). Evil Dead, one of Ben’s favorite movies, inspires the use of the zombies in the video[citation needed]; normal people attending the gig transform into said zombies throughout the course of the video. The underwater scene was Amy's idea. She also designed two of the costumes she's wearing in the video. The crimson corset cost her $2,500, the biggest amount of money she’d ever spent on a piece of clothing. The other outfit had been stitched by Amy herself. "It's white and has a lot of shreds. It reminds me of something someone who died would wear." The idea of them came to her while she was nursing an illness in a hotel in Los Angeles.[4]

In the light of Fallen's 10th anniversary in 2013, Amy published the sketch for the corset she wore on the music video:
