"My Immortal" is a song by American rock band Evanescence from their debut studio album, Fallen (2003). It was released by Wind-up Records on December 8, 2003, as the third single from the album. An alternative version appears on the band's fourth studio album Synthesis (2017). The song was written by guitarist Ben Moody, lead singer Amy Lee and keyboardist David Hodges, and it was produced by Moody and Dave Fortman. Various versions of "My Immortal" were recorded; one of them was included on the demo album Origin (2000) and another on the EP release Mystary (2003). The version originally appearing on Origin was later included on Fallen, featuring piano with backing strings. The version of the song released as a single was dubbed the "band version" because of the complete band's performance of the bridge and final chorus of the song.

Lyrics

I`m so tired of being here

Suppressed by all my childish fears

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

Because your presence still lingers here

And it won`t leave me alone

These wounds won`t seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There`s just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I`d wipe away all of your tears

When you`d scream I`d fight away all of your fears

And I`ve held your hand through all of these years

But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me

by your resonating light

But now I`m bound by the life you left behind

Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams

Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won`t seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There`s just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I`d wipe away all of your tears

When you`d scream I`d fight away all of your fears

And I`ve held your hand through all of these years

But you still have all of me

I`ve tried so hard to tell myself that you´re gone

But though you`re still with me

I`ve been alone all along
