Lines such as 'save me from the dark' and 'how can you see into my eyes, like open doors?' these both suggest to the audience that Amy Lee is stuck in a different world that she needs to be saved from. This reinforces the idea of drugs that she cannot escape. Referring to her own eyes as 'open doors' suggests that she is empty, alone and has no proper life inside of her; this also supports the idea of drug use, as drugs fully take over your life and your body. Overall, these lyrics state the full impact drugs can have on a persons mentality and personality.
There is a continuous theme of drugs and depression running through the lyrics of my song. When first hearing this song; I immediately imagined it was about love but after analysing the lyrics I realised that the lead female singer - Amy Lee is struggling from a drug addiction that she can't seem to escape without his help. The male singer in this song is there to 'bring her to life' and allow her to be free from the dangerous drug addiction. Amy states how she has 'been living a lie' this connotes that she has not been living her original life but a life blurred by the drug use.
