"Bring me to life" by Evanescence (Performed by Cristala and Santiago)
Santiago:
I take your hand and walk up on stage with you. I kiss you on the side of the head as the music begins. I walk behind you, wrapping my arm around your waist as I begin to sing.
How can you see into my eyes
Like open doors.
Leading you down into my core
Where I’ve become so numb.
Without a soul
My spirit’s sleeping somewhere cold
Cristala:
Led by you in the center of the stage, I smile as you place your hand around me and begin to sing. Looking in the audience and grinning at everyone I place my hand upon yours and get the mic closer...
You almost shouting behind me...
Wake me up
... singing passionately
Wake me up inside
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me!!
Call my name and save me from the dark!
Wake me up!
Bid my blood to run
I can’t wake up
Before I come undone
Save me!!
Save me from the nothing I’ve become
Taking the mic into my own hands, glancing in this exhilaration at you and sing!...
Now that I know what I’m without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life....
Santiago:
Leaning over you, I sing into the mic with you.
Bring me to life.
I’ve been living a lie
There’s nothing inside.
Bring me to life.
You hand me back the mic. I pull your hair to the side, my nose against your neck as I sing.
Frozen inside without your touch,
Without your love, darling.
Only you are the life among the dead.
All of this sight
I can’t believe I couldn’t see
Kept in the dark
But you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a 1000 years it seems.
I’ve got to open my eyes to everything.
Without a thought
Without a voice
Without a soul
Cristala:
Suddenly turning my head to whisper deeply into the mic so close to your lips...
Don't let me die here!
there must be something more
..and we both sing
Bring me to life!!
Still together, standing side by side, singing alternative, our voices fading into one another...
Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can’t wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
call my name and save me from the dark
Wake me up
bid my blood to run
I can’t wake up
before I come undone
Save me
save me from the nothing I’ve become... and sing our last notes in a descend of intensity. Smiling, we take a bow in front of our public and glance one last time at one another
