If nobody knows what this song means, it's about staying in love with the pain that you have. Without the pain you're nothing. Without the pain u don't know what to do. R.I.P Family members Pets Friends Myself
It's almost terrifying how much I truly connect with these lyrics "Lithium", as well as a lot of Amy Lee's songs with her band Evanescence. Even though life can really suck in so many messed up ways and with so many different messed up people, I still strive to stay strong and I refuse to let anyone break me. They can at times break my heart, but I refuse to let them break me. No one will EVER break me! For all of you out there like me, stay strong! Don't ever let them break you!!! You must stay strong for YOU! XOXO
This is hands down my favorite song by them, right next to Lost In Paradise. It describes the "friendship" I had with a guy who frequently put my life in danger, physically overpowered me, humiliated me and sexually assaulted me on multiple accounts. He refused to believe lesbians exist. He was convinced I had to be won over. He was psychotic, and wanted to make sure that I was so broken after our friendship that I wouldn't be able to love anyone else. Don't stay in abusive relationships, kids, friend or boyfriend. Those four years added to my fucked-upness more than anyone would ever know. I can't handle a guy walking behind me without having an anxiety overload.. it's fun. Not.
VivatLupus Same story, I sing a lot of Amy's songs, but I sometimes find myself going back to that dark place where I spent 7 years being tortured by a very similar man to the one you described. It's been 16 years and it still catches me off guard when I hear a man scream out of rage. I can definitely relate! 👊🏻
I know this is old...even an old thread... BUT I can't stay away from this song (and Like You- Evanescence as well)... These are two songs that actually really hit my heart. This one because of my own struggles with mental health and feeling I am nothing if not melancholy. And the other- because I lost my twin to lung cancer 3 yrs ago and ever since then, the song "Like You" rings true inside of me every single day. I cry when I hear the lyrics, "I hate me for breathing without you I don't want to feel anymore for you"... So yeah. These songs mean so much to me... my heart... my life.
This is and stays my favourite number of Evanescence. They are all really good! Also, your lyrics are accurate, I love that. Thank you so much for putting it on youtube!
For any one who is curious what lithium actually is its an anti phychotic given to people with bipolar disorder or even schizophrenia i guess it can be used as a drug to get high off of but ive never met anyone who did it as a fun drug just know about because i was on it for a couple yrs
I'm in the same boat. What really makes me depressed though is knowing there are so many people out there who live the reality of her songs. While they all kinda vary, they for the most part are depression, brokenness, and toxic relationships. I used to be there myself, and some of her songs described it perfectly. So it really makes my heart ache for the people her songs describe.
Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without Lithium, I wanna stay in love with my sorrow Oh, but God I wanna let it go Come to bed, don't make me sleep alone Couldn't hide the emptiness, you let it show Never wanted it to be so cold Just didn't drink enough to say you love me I can't hold on to me Wonder what's wrong with me? Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without Lithium, I wanna stay in love with my sorrow, oh Don't wanna let it lay me down this time Drown my will to fly Here in the darkness I know myself Can't break free until I let it go, let me go Darling, I forgive you after all Anything is better than to be alone And in the end I guess I had to fall Always find my place among the ashes I can't hold on to me Wonder what's wrong with me? Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without Lithium, in love with you Oh, I'm gonna let it go
man.. everytime I listen to this I get chills through the entire song. I'm not sexist or anything, but normally I dont listen to female singers. I'm a guy, so I can just relate and connect with a song more when its a guys voice singing and a guys point of view. but amy is no doubt an exception for me. amazing voice, so much emotion, and just my style of music. freakin love it

Lithium is a drug to treat of depression and bipolar desorder. The song meaning is deep she fights with her demons or let say she describes a fight between her mind is captured in a cage/darkness (what lithium does it supress your feelings) and her demand to escape from that cage, going out to the light ... but she can't, because she needs this darkness (from the song: "here in the darkness I know myself")

Been on this terrible medication for so long, and I'm starting to wean myself off. One of the hardest things I have ever done.
I absolutely love Amy's voice
just a fantastic voice she has I could listen to her band for a billion years
Oh God please help me let HIM go! In Jesus name amen! Absolutely amazing song! Nothing compares but close.

WTF WHY WOULD ANYONE CLICK DISLIKE ON THIS SONG LONG LIVE THE QUEEN AMY LEE
This is my favorite Evanescence song. Her voice, words, and just everything is pure perfection.

This song remind me of the never ending depression and loneliness of my life she can really touch your soul with her songs
I love Evanescence... but sometimes these songs are depressing so after I listen to them I listen to happy songs.(not Pharrel: Happy)
Actually sometimes yes
I like your profile pic XD Fairy Tail!
+The Courageous Knight Yes!! me too!! XD

LONG LIVE THE QUEEN LONG LIVE AMY LEE LONG LIVE EVANESCENCE
Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium, I wanna stay in love with my sorrow
Oh, but God I wanna let it go
Come to bed, don't make me sleep alone
Couldn't hide the emptiness, you let it show
Never wanted it to be so cold
Just didn't drink enough to say you love me
I can't hold on to me
Wonder what's wrong with me?
Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium, I wanna stay in love with my sorrow, oh
Don't wanna let it lay me down this time
Drown my will to fly
Here in the darkness I know myself
Can't break free until I let it go, let me go
Darling, I forgive you after all
Anything is better than to be alone
And in the end I guess I had to fall
Always find my place among the ashes
I can't hold on to me
Wonder what's wrong with me?
Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium, in love with you
Oh, I'm gonna let it go

Lithium is a nightmare drug.
Well, good thing it's a song then yes?
Except she's singing from experience being on lithium she's bipolar. It's awful
jayne doe How do you know for sure she was on lithium? Was it just a guess since she made a song named 'Lithium'?
No it came from research and watching interviews.

@twilghtgopher Awe thanks :)
amy lee please sing me to sleep tonight
this may sound like a stupid question but what's the story of this song?
I am not certain but I believe it is referring to meds that treat bi-polar symptoms or depression/anxiety, things like that.
Kenzi Girl lithium is a medicine for bipolar/depressed people.. it helps them to stabilize their "manic" phase of depression
this reminds me of elsa how strange
***** elsa was locked up and wanted to let it go and fell in love with her sorrow
***** exactly i'm right and your wrong
Please no ;-;
ilovewarriorcats11 what?
Same
Oh . . . I get it.
What is lithium?
cool so/sad
lithium, I wanna stay in love with my sorrow
Who can sing and hit her notes beautifuly like amylee🙋
I read that some people can't sing the high note and I'm just like: Bruh.
Listen to the only one
I can't do it lol I'm close but I can't
Lithium's notes are easy
Yeah. I'll see if I can sing it. In Chorus I'm an Alto, but I'd love to be a Soprano.
@ThatVideoMakingKid THANK YOU!!! YOU HAVE SAVED ABOUT THREE HOURS' WORTH OF BULLSHIT IN MY LIFE (meaning three hours of looking for that font on the internet)
Why lithium?
+nay nayla would you prefer magnesium? xD
Thank you for such a well researched answer.
+nay nayla PS: Your story sounds interesting, where can I read it?
It's a medicine to help with the medical condition of being bipolar
3:24.. 0_0
