Written by: A. Lee, B. Moody, and D. Hodges This was the last song written for Fallen and would have been the first single, but Bring Me to Life had been put onto the Daredevil soundtrack, so it became the second single. According to Amy, the song is about emerging from a bad relationship: "When you're at the end of your rope; when you're at the point where you realize something has to change; that you can't go on living in the situation that you're in. It's cool. It's a very strong song." Going Under is Amy's favorite song from Fallen. The trailer of 'Tristan and Isolde', used the song for promoting the movie, although it is not in the soundtrack. It can be watched here.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1] 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 (Going under) Don't want your hand this time, I'll save myself Maybe I'll wake up for once (Wake up for once) Not tormented, daily defeated by you Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom [Pre-Chorus] I'm dying again [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies (So I don't know what's real) So I don't know what's real and what's not (Don't know what's real and what's not) Always confusing the thoughts in my head (Oh) So I can't trust myself anymore [Pre-Chorus] I'm dying again [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] So go on and scream Scream at me, I'm so far away (So far away) I won't be broken again (Again) I've got to breathe, I can't keep going under [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] I'm dying again [Chorus] 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) [Outro] I'm going under (Drowning in you) I'm going under
