Evanescence – Going Under Lyrics

Rock

Now I will tell you what I've done for you
Fifty-thousand tears I've cried
Screaming, deceiving and bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
I'm going under

Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom

I'm dying again
I'm going under
(going under)
Drowning in you
(drowning in you)
I'm falling forever
(falling forever)
I've got to break through
I'm going under

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
So I don't know what's real and what's not
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore

I'm dying again
I'm going under
(going under)
Drowning in you
(drowning in you)
I'm falling forever
(falling forever)
I've got to break through

So go on and scream
Scream at me, I'm so far away
I won't be broken again
I've got to breathe, I can't keep going under
I'm dying again
I'm going under
(going under)
Drowning in you
(drowning in you)
I'm falling forever
(falling forever)
I've got to break through
I'm going under
(going under)
Going under
(drowning in you)
I'm going under

    Please tell me the meaning of this song. I'm a very concerned mother. Just want to know if this is something I should buy for my doughters birthday she's a 15 yrs old, or if this some kind of satanists like Merlin Manson. Just trying to be an understanding parent with my kids

    This song is about trying to get the person she wrote the song to to see her and all that she does. Shes screaming for attention but he just manages to bring her down even further. She also mentions in the song about him teeling her lies so she doesnt know whats wrong and right. Basically, shes saying she cant trust her own choices because he makes her feel as though shes always wrong. In the chorus its stating how shes under his/her finger and she needs to break free so she can be herself. Personally, for me to sing this song its a great stress reliever... And the vocals are beautiful
