HIVE OPEN MIC 182: My Immortal// A Music Cover By Usagidee 🎶🎶

Good day, everyone here in Hive! I am so happy to be back here at Hive Open Mic with another cover that I will present to this community. For the 182th theme, Folk and Symphonic Metal, I chose the song "My Immortal" by Evanescence.

Actually, the theme for this week is a bit hard, especially the fact that my voice is not fit to any metal genre. But I still hope that I did bring out the best in me trying to sing this music.

My Immortal is a very sad song for me because it talks about a person who is afraid to lose someone. Well, who doesn't fear losing someone they love? When this happens to me, I'd be depressed as well. Maybe I won't be able to go back to my old life if that ever happens.

In real life, I can say that this has also happened to me. What's good is that the person who walked away from me is completely alive. But his memories still remain. All the pain he gave, they are all here inside me. I've prayed that this pain will disappear just like how he left out of my life. But I think that it will never go away. Up to now, I feel sorry for I can't find forgiveness in my heart maybe because there was no reconciliation between the two of us. One day, he just chose to disappeared like a bubble, without any communication. It was a few years after I was able to return to normal life and then I just decided to move on. Yeah, I moved on in life because I have to be. But the heartache left by this person, I don't think it will vanish. I am just so grateful that there is finally someone who gave me the love I was looking for.

My Immortal

Song by Evanescence

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
'Cause 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 held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me by your resonating light
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 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

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 held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
All of me... me... me..
