Embrace the silence<br>
Embrace the silence
Cause there’s nothing that can change the way I feel<br>
Cause there's nothing that can change the way I feel
Taken all that you wanted<br>
Taken all that you wanted  
Now there’s nothing that can change the way I feel<br>
Now there's nothing that can change the way I feel

Of every thought, every breath I wasted here<br>
Of every thought,every breath I wasted here

General Information

The 8th track on Evanescence's self-titled album, Evanescence (album). It is one of the shortest titles of all Evanescence's songs, sharing this feature with Lies.

In a track-by-track interview with NME.com, Amy said about the song[1]:

Vin1.jpg Sick, okay, this is the song that was one of the first one we came up with when we had like a band jam session, about a year ago. And I don't know, we were really excited about it right away. Sometimes you get in a room with a group of people and try to write a song together and it just doesn't work. The more brains you get going, sometimes the more disjointed it becomes and the more directions start getting pulled apart.

This was a really cool moment because I felt like we discovered that we were on the same page. And as this line-up, this band we really can write together that way. And that was really exciting for me because again that's not what I'm used to and that's not what I've done the most in my life. For this band, it's usually been very private, kinda one on one, or alone kind of thing. Mostly one-on-one with somebody, I'm not writing those guitar parts or anything. Anyway. So, when we wrote Sick it was like an experiment that we didn't know if it would work or not. And I remember we were all just really excited at the end of it because we love that song. But it was just, for me I think of it like that was the moment when we were like 'Yeah, we can do this, it's gonna be fun'

Lyrics

Embrace the silence Cause there's nothing that can change the way I feel Taken all that you wanted Now there's nothing that can change the way I feel

Hold on,little girl The end is soon to come

Sick of it all Sick of it all We will not follow Sick of it all Sick of it all They don't understand how Sick we are Sick we are Of this bottomless pit of lies Behind closed eyes

Oceans between us Cause there's nothing that can change the way I feel I can still taste the poison Of every thought,every breath I wasted here

Hold on, little girl The end is soon to come

Sick of it all Sick of it all We will not follow Sick of it all Sick of it all They don't understand how Sick we are Sick we are Of this bottomless pit of lies Behind closed eyes

One day you'll know the pain Someday the light will break through And nothing you tell yourself will save us from the truth Screaming out

Sick of it all Sick of it all We will not follow Sick of it all Sick of it all They don't understand how Sick we are Sick we are Of this bottomless pit of lies Behind closed eyes
