My reflection, dirty mirror
there's no connection to myself
I'm your lover, I'm your zero
I'm the face in your dreams of glass
So save your prayers
for when you're really gonna need 'em
throw out your cares and fly
Wanna go for a ride?

She's the one for me
She's all I really need
Cause she's the one for me

Emptiness is loneliness and loneliness is cleanliness
and cleanliness is godliness, and God is empty just like me
Intoxicated with the madness, I'm in love with my sadness
Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms
The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth
I never let on that I was on a sinking ship
I never let on that I was down
You blame yourself, for what you can't ignore
You blame yourself for wanting more

She's the one for me
She's all I really need
She's the one for me
She's my one and only

    General Comment:I like this version, even though I actually like the original a bit more. I like the way that Amy sings the song, and it's good to see them sing in a style they don't normally use.

    General Comment:And I think if you want the meaning to the song and not a debate over it, you should go to the page for the ORIGINAL song

    General Comment:I absolutely LOVE Smashing Pumpkins, but on this particular song, I didn't really enjoy Billys voice. I think Amy just makes it sound more together and creepier... it was creepy in the original too, just in a different way... Plus I like that the Evanescence version is just a little heavier

    General Comment:I agree with shouldve_known, I think it's really irritating that people don't just speak their mind; it's like they scream it, and don't care about everyone else. I visit songmeanings to find the MEANING of a SONG, not to read a whole argument about which band is better... I think you can say honestly which version you like, but don't be rude.. there's a difference between being rude and being honest! if you don't like the cover you have a choice; listen to it and get all upset about it, or don't listen to it, and save yourself and others the trouble.

    General Comment:I thought this was Song MEANINGS, not an open forum on who's better. Both side,s no offense, but you need to grow up a little. Seriously, is this what you would say to people on the street?
