My ex boyfriend is who this reminds me of. We were together for about three years. When he was alive he said this song reminded him of me...why I don't know, but now after hearing it, it hit me like a ton of bricks. We had a deep passionate love in the beginning. Then he became physically abusive. I stayed after numerous attacks because of love and children. Then it came to be too much after he broke my back along my spine. I've had multiple surgeries and am forever hurt. I was angry for so long, but ended up befriending him because I still loved him. We moved on in our lives, I got married and he had other girlfriends etc. But, his exwife moved away w/their three children, his relationship ended, and he ended up taking his own life. This song reminds me of our relationship and the fact that I still have dreams of him and the pain and hurt is always here and time will never take away the memories.

I believe that this song is about her relationship with God, how He has been there with her through everything in her life, even when she didn't want Him. The chorus is God telling her.... "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" ....he is telling her that through it all, He was still there.

When you'd cry I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

This could mean that she did everything for this person, and in return all he/she did was leave; taking her life with them and causing her pain

There's too much that time cannot erase

Could mean that time cannot make her forget all her pain

This song seems like it can be molded to fit any life situation. Right now, this is the one it fits perfectly for me.

I thinks it's about a guy (I'm aware she didn't write it) who is very close to Amy(<-- for story's sake). They're very close friends, or at least she thought they were. The problem is that she loves him and he knows it. And he loves someone else and she knows it. And even through him loving someone else, she stayed close friends with him. She was the one he turned to when the girl he loves left him. He shared everything with her. She wiped away his tears and held his hand, all caused by the girl he loved. She sacraficed her well being for his, and no matter how much it hurt to help him through his pain, shed rather be in pain than him. Then in the end, she finds out that their friendship may be a lie. It wasn't as much of a relationship as she wanted, bu it was all she had. To find out it was a lie hurt her so much. He was only using her for his benefit, because he knew she loved him and would do anything for him. Now that he's done suffering, she's left to take his place. She wonders if he knows that he causes her the pain that the girl he loved caused him. And even though she held his hand through it, he just walked away. He always had all of her, first of love and friendship, now of the memories that she knows were lies. She tries to forget him, but she's been blinded by his light, she cants see anything else now. She's dug herself into a hole that she will never be able to get out of. She regrets believing everything he said.

i have no idea what this song is about, but to me this song is dedicated to my best friend and first love Jeyson. In late 2007, Jeyson put the knife to his throat to call it quits. He could not bear the pain of rape from his father, the pain of loss from his mother, the whole incestual marriage between his father and his aunt and just...did it. He and I were in deep love with eachother. I too was raped, molested and hurt by my father. In the 2nd grade, when we met we clicked. He and I did EVERYTHING together. Eat the same food, dance in the rain, roll down hills, catch fireflies and shared our first kiss. To me, he was and still is my everything. When I pray, I pray to GOD and him. I sang this song at his ash spreading...his rebirth. I miss him each day, but this was our song. The first time I ever sang in front of people was this song at his ash spreading... --Amaya Devi Amane--

The song was original written by Ben Moody who wrote this song when he was 15 years old. It's based on a ghost whoes presence is still there after the person has died. In the video of My Immortal Amy never touches the ground (almost) and is dressed in white which symbolize her death (ghost). And The guy who is wearing the suit in the beginning looks to be that he just came from the funeral of his wife or girlfriend. He is frustated and angry that he can't move on and sick of feeling these things. He is blaming the person who died for it that he can't move on. Oh and by the way Ben Moody also wrote another song for Amy. Hope it helps :)
