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 on Don't want your hand this time, I'll save myself Maybe I'll wake up for once Not tormented daily, defeated by you
And I know that sounds corny, but she has the most spectacular voice I have ever heard in the type of music that I love.
And the balance the band walked during this time was one reason they exploded onto the scene with this album.
Going Under charted internationally and cemented Evanescence as totally legit band.

Fallen went on to sell over 10 million copies worldwide, which is global impact.
The band originally formed in the mid-90s in Little Rock, Arkansas, founded by Amy Lee and guitarist Ben Moody.
