Amy Lee - Dark Water Lyrics

(feat. Malika Zarra)

[Amy Lee wrote the following lyrics and then asked Malika Zarra to roughly translate it into her native Moroccan Arabic for the song]

I thought I heard your footsteps
coming up the stairs,
But it was only my heart,
pounding in my ears

I thought I saw your light
flicker in the window
But it was only my eyes
reflecting my despair

And alone I will wander
through the dark dark water
Until I collect every shattered
piece of my broken heart
And wait for a reason to start again
