Lyrics for Lies (Remix) as interpreted by escence

Lies (Remix) Lyrics
(Bind) Bind, my limbs with fear (fear)
Choke me with tears (tears)
I won’t die for you
(You’ve) You’ve, been here before (before)
And come back for more (more)
But not this time

You will never be strong enough
You will never be good enough
You were never conceived in love
You cannot rise above

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you
I should have known all along it was all a lie
I should have known it was all a lie

(Now) Now, I know the truth (truth)
I'm through fearing you (you)
And I am free

You will never be strong enough
You will never be good enough
You were never conceived in love
You cannot rise above

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you
I should have known all along it was all a lie
I should have known it was all a lie
I should have known it was all a lie

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you
I should have known all along it was all a lie
Somebody tell me what made us all believe you
I should have known it was all a lie
I should have known it was all a lie

thats good, considering none of their songs are about god or jesus. they have references to god in some songs, but they are not singing about god. theres a difference.

I agree with all three of you. I also think their might be the slightest chance it's about realizing there isn't a god or something like that, or maybe about finding out somebody they loved was just using them.

I don't mean to piss anyone off but these lyrics are a little bit wrong here is the corrected version:

(Bind) Bind, my limbs with fear (fear),
Choke me with tears (tears),
I won’t die for you,
(You’ve) You’ve, been here before (before),
And come back for more (more),
But not this time,

You'll never be strong enough,
You'll never be good enough,
You were never conceived in love,
You cannot rise above,

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie,

(Now) Now, I know the truth (truth),
I'm through fearing you (you),
And I am free,

You'll never be strong enough,
You'll never be good enough,
You were never conceived in love,
You cannot rise above,

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie,

(Chanting)

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie,

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie.

Why are people saying 'chanting?' It isn't chanting, it's Amy singing a drawn-out 'ah.' Which, by the way, is beautiful.

I like this version better than the original but it's a shame that they took out the guy singer (i think his name is bruce).

i personally love this song better than the original version. its pretty clear to me thats bout someone who discovered that the one he or she loved was a complete lie, so now than he or she ended the relationship feels free.
by the way, the ahhh ahh i think ive read somewhere that is sang by a choir, its great.
a question, perhaps stupid, why is it named remix?? i mean, a remix is not when a song is alterated by OTHER person, a radio, etc?? thanxx, and Evanescence RAWKSSSSSSSS

*Agrees with emblenj* The lyrics on this page are a little wrong. This song isn't as good as the original but it's ok.

x3 I like them both but this would have to be my favorite within the two. It sounds like it's talking about a relationship that failed, to me. But yea. >_> That's all

The lyrics are actually:

Bind, (Bind) my limbs with fear (fear),
Choke me with tears (tears),
I won’t die for you,
You’ve, (You’ve) been here before (before),
And come back for more (more),
But not this time,

You'll never be strong enough,
You'll never be good enough,
You were never conceived in love,
You will not rise above,

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie,

Now, (Now) I know the truth (truth),
I'm through fearing you (you),
And I am free,

You'll never be strong enough,
You'll never be good enough,
You were never conceived in love,
You will not rise above,

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie,

(Several ah's)

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie,

Somebody tell me what made us all believe you,
I should have known all along it was all a lie,
I should have known it was all a lie.

I love this song, better than the original.

The band doesn't really consider this sond a "remix" but more of a "remake".

I think I prefer the original because it was very gothic but this version is great as well. I love the new way she sings:
"You will never be strong enough
You will never be good enough
You were never conceived in love
You cannot rise above"
