It's because it's written by Ben Moody, an immensely talented artist lamenting here the lost love of his life (Amy, obviously...). I can't listen too often. It makes me want to cry for him ... and I'm a grown-ass man.
"Ever after never came, and I'm still waiting, for a life that never was." Last week my doctor said that I may have a certain condition that would allow me to have children... only to have that glimmer of hope robbed from me this evening at the specialist's office... Sometimes music is just too relatable... :'(
It is not a life or death situation to have kids. The world is overpopulated as it is. There are so many kids that have already been forced into this world who need loving parents. Adopt, if you can. Plus, if you actually get to be with someone you love and want to have kids with, you're far more blessed than many of us. I will likely never be loved by someone I love, which is a pain like no other, especially when I see vile people get to share their life with someone they love while I haven't ever been given a chance.
I can't help but think of how my life is dying. I'm always the happy person, the one you go to if you can't seem to find a reason to smile, but now, it seems I can't find a reason to smile. Everything I've ever known and loved will soon be out of my reach forever.
I remember listening to this years ago... it gave me my AU idea, and spawned an angst-riddled fic that's full of character death. I still cry thinking between both the song and the story~ c''''x
Why they never made a video for this song, I guess we'll never know. I'm confused as to why there hasn't been any new music from them....such a great band.
Beautifully sung Carly. I adore this song definitely made my top ten favorites. Though then again I'm obsessed with We Are The Fallen, so guess I'm a bit biased...oh well.
I love this song so much. Its so beautiful and the emotions are exquisitely raw...its like watching a drop of ink in water. Fascinating, pretty, and carrying morbid connotations.
When ever I think about emotional songs I think of this long tory in my head that I made for about a year now and it relates A lot to this and other songs
I Love This Song So Beautiful Sounds Like Evanescence This Reminds Me Of The Rough Time I Was Going Through When I Was Getting Bullied Bad But I Am Happy Now This Song Is So Uplifting And So Calming As Well Thanks For Posting This Vid 💗💓
dude breath! life may be slipping away every second but if you live life by doing the right things. those little right things will be enough at the end. believe me I was like you once and now that I have this in my head. strangely I don't feel alone anymore. and don't hear music like this it will make you feel more hopeless! XD
My lullaby return again to sing me to depth and pull me apart from all I hold dear. Wistful words left empty and the door already shut in this heart of mine. Guess I was meant to stand alone in the end
There's a haunting beauty to this song, despite the ridiculous melodrama in the lyrics. The musical composition, along with Carly's vocals, tie it together really well. One point though: If "ever after" never comes, get off your ass and go get it. There's quite a few people in these comments whining (yes, whining, not relating) about how there's no one there for them or that there's something they'll never have in this life... It's not going to pop out of the nothing and sit in your lap, folks. Sitting around and moping about it, listening to music that "speaks" to your sadness or whatever, isn't going to improve anything. This comment won't make me any friends, nor will I be popular with the folks that read it. Oh well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Great, I was just watching a bunch of Doctor Who clips, and now I can't listen to "Memories fade into the Silence" without thinking about... something?
One of my teachers said "If want an omelette, you have to crack an egg." In other words,if you want something to change; YOU have to make the effort because nobody is going to do it for you.
I can hear the different in the voice of the between the two. But what isn't helping the case any, is the actual musicianship and songs themselves sound very similar.
+Robin Gramlich I personally do not get why people say she sounds like amy lee carly has her own voice its deeper than amy's voice yes they are in the same vocal range but that's about it in my opinion :)
+Zenithofrockandmetal I completely agree. People mostly say this because of the background, concidering that almost every other band member was once a part of Evanescence
I mean, she does sound like Amy, but they're the same genre. Listen to Tarja, Sharon den Adel etc etc.. they all KINDA sound like Amy because their genres are similar to Evanescence's
dido and i"m a girl! you know how many friends of mine come to me asking asking asking what they should do and still do the dumbass thing and then cry to me about it? its draining!
Honest to God I just tried to listen to WATF in its own right but wow....it's 100% just the former Evanescence band members trying to replace Amy Lee with another singer who isn't going to fit into her vocals or personality. It really comes across as a watered down Evanescence without the singer that brings life to the lyrics. Sorry, but knock offs ain't better than the original Amy. Dare I say her tone is flat and boring, even with ok lyrics. And I listened to multiple songs. Disappointing.

One of my favorite songs
Coming back to listen to this in 2021. I loved this song back when I was going through alot if stuff. Still rings with me.
This song fills me with such intense emotion that I can't seem to pinpoint... I just want to cry
me too
Me three
Cried so many times to this song.
This song always makes me cry. It channels how I feel about my infertility.
It's because it's written by Ben Moody, an immensely talented artist lamenting here the lost love of his life (Amy, obviously...). I can't listen too often. It makes me want to cry for him ... and I'm a grown-ass man.
Still waiting for love that i'll never have.
Same here
Me to..... 😭😭
Me too
Did you find it?

I am so sorry. May God bless you with a miracle.

I get thousands gose bumps I only get from Amy.
I'm confused this is not Amy but she sounds as beautiful as Amy.
That's very much by Ben's design. He never got over her, and who can blame him?
Carley Smithinson Is who is singing this song. She was on American Idol. Great singer.
First listened to this one last night, and I find it hauntingly beautiful. Definitely a new fave by We Are The Fallen!
Probably Ben Moody's best lyrics ever!
Not that this isn't gorgeous, but don't forget he wrote "My Immortal".
just found this song and it is now one of my all time favorites!!!
Takes me back in time how i was alone in the Dark....
I haven't step into the light
What other people hear is not really subject to opinion. Beautiful song with striking similarities and subtle but unique differences.
Love it - Found this song when i watched The Vampire Diaries.
this song is beautiful
I love her voice 😍
This song is absolutely perfect! This is a song that grabs you!
How do people like dubstep when there is music like this?
+Sinister Pumpkin Uh...because they just do? Music taste is relative, what you think is good isn't good to everyone.
because different people have different music tastes and it's entirely possible to like both this style of music and dubstep
I remember listening to this years ago... it gave me my AU idea, and spawned an angst-riddled fic that's full of character death. I still cry thinking between both the song and the story~ c''''x
+Shadow27 I feel you c: Sleep Well, My Angel is just... agh. This entire album makes me sad but it's so _good_
Why they never made a video for this song, I guess we'll never know. I'm confused as to why there hasn't been any new music from them....such a great band.
love this song

I AGREE AND I WILL BE 70 IN MARCH. SO GORGEOUS.
FABULOUS SONG. LOVE EVANESCENCE STATION.

First song I've heard from we are the fallen.....AND IT ENDS!!!!😖😖😖😖😖

^.^ I absolutely love this song. Been thinking of doing a Fan video~

singing this for my recital! love it!

Number 2 on my top 5 Tearjerkers.
Nigel Plumley what’s number one? :o
Beautiful. On my list.
Love this song :)
I Love This Song!!
Amy Lee comes in sing " Your Not The Only One"
Beautiful song!!
Excellent song!!!
Great Song...Great voice...❤

Mike Yep, sometimes truth hurts haha, but what'd you expect?
+Mike well said. Half the goths that say that most likely are teenagers with an over the top amount of angst.
madder66mortem Try somewhere other than Tinder.
Mike though true about getting the ever after yourself.
Ever after I am making happen when I was abandoned. So I say similar. Make it happen if you want it.
it's just a awesome song like it or hate it. good group rock on
omg I love this so much
2019 anyone?
Yep...that's how things work. People come and they go. It's a comming and going, everything changes and this hurts...a lot.
Great, I was just watching a bunch of Doctor Who clips, and now I can't listen to "Memories fade into the Silence" without thinking about... something?
the guitarist is exbandlid from Evanescene (sorry if i write it wrong my english is isn`t that good) xx
Is it just me or is this the direction evanescence should have gone? I know that this is former members, by the way.
Hey im your first comment!! cool video, it got the job done and the point across. :)
That moment you realize how lonely u truly are.....
i know.... omg
these lyrics are great, fore whoever reads them they'll understand
Ben Moody wrote this song. He is a super talented, and under rated musician.
lyrics are a bit fast but song is in perfect quality so all is forgiven haha
Perfecto!
I know how you feel. It's painful.
One of my teachers said "If want an omelette, you have to crack an egg."
In other words,if you want something to change; YOU have to make the effort because nobody is going to do it for you.
I'm the same as you, I'm that go-to guy, but a go-to guy who had a dark past
My life in a song....
Still waiting for a life that never was,
Same here
I know the feeling
This song reminds me of my crush and I. I know that we will never ever be together. I still hope though, but my hope is fading slowly. :( :'(
Beautiful
This is my song. I am only one.
I can hear the different in the voice of the between the two. But what isn't helping the case any, is the actual musicianship and songs themselves sound very similar.
same here....
what ever happened to "we are the fallen"?
+Emiri - Chan Carly got a kid so I think they broke up :(
nooooo :(
@@uh-fl8my fkn kids
sounds almost exactly like amy lee (evanescence)
+Robin Gramlich it is in a nuance and style I've never heard from Lee
+Robin Gramlich I personally do not get why people say she sounds like amy lee carly has her own voice its deeper than amy's voice yes they are in the same vocal range but that's about it in my opinion :)
+Zenithofrockandmetal I completely agree. People mostly say this because of the background, concidering that almost every other band member was once a part of Evanescence
agreed she is deeper then amy
I don't think she sounds like Amy Lee but the lyrics do seem like something Evanescence would do.
Should i try this song with an anime called fairy tale that is like a perfect match
I'm still waiting....
I hear Amy singing this song... 💕 I just feel it
from evanence??? dude this a difrent person
Cłøck Wørk she knows she's just imagining Amy singing this song.
TheOriginalsQuotes o
lmao trust me, I know Evanescence and WATF
Didi Thompson :3
this fairytales gone wrong
This song is better than evanescent
I mean, she does sound like Amy, but they're the same genre. Listen to Tarja, Sharon den Adel etc etc.. they all KINDA sound like Amy because their genres are similar to Evanescence's
Okay, can someone tell me if this was in a show or a movie? Because this sounds so familiar but I'm not sure where I've heard it before
Mrs mayhem will take her last ride if my dad dont get involved in my life more its like why do i even matter i need my daddy
{Pope Lindsay Piffer}
Is Amy lee singing this song?
haha lol true XD
It's suppose to be about death and all you are complaining about stupid crushes.
Its deliberately ambiguous. Yes it's sort of about death but it's principally symbolic, i think he's speaking about the death of a love, of the heart.
dido and i"m a girl! you know how many friends of mine come to me asking asking asking what they should do and still do the dumbass thing and then cry to me about it? its draining!
Beginning sounds a little like lost in paradise- Evanescence
Story of my life and with this gun to my head now I can die and finally have peace
mekekekeke
First time I heard it, thought it was awesome...
Nowadays, it feels... Off.
Unfinished...
She could do better.
I disagree I. mean they sound alike a little but not completely
Honest to God I just tried to listen to WATF in its own right but wow....it's 100% just the former Evanescence band members trying to replace Amy Lee with another singer who isn't going to fit into her vocals or personality.
