My fav song of The Open Door...the lyric is soooooo deep, the pain, the loneliness and the feelings of this song are amazing...breathtaking. |

| I love this song.
And the answer to fallen's question.
Lithium is a drug used to treat schizophrenia.
In the song, Amy sings about not wanting to lose herself to the medication, etc.
That's my connotation. |

AMAZING song... probably my favourite off the album. Everything about it is just mezmerizing, can't explain it... just makes you go "wow"
Quote from Cirafly24 on evboard.com, which helped me to understand the song better:
"For those who don't understand what lithium is, or what it has to do with anything:
Lithium is a psychiatric drug used as a mood stabilizer...often prescribed to people with bipolar disorder and/or mood swings, along with other mood disorders.
I took lithium for several years, and I can relate to this song so much that it's crazy. Lithium took my sadness away...but then I didn't know who I was anymore. I'd clung to my sorrow for so long that I felt more like myself with it than without it. I almost wanted to hold on to it just because it was familiar. But in order to live and be free, I had to let it go.
I hope that makes it a little clearer

Lithium is used to treat bipolar disorder or manic depression. It saves people's lives. It has nothing to do with helping you "stay in love with your sorrow" or any other melodramatic cliche. It's not for everybody, but then no medication is. This ridiculous idea that mental health treatment is somehow the enemy of the soul is perpetuated all too often by weepy, moronic songs like this one. |

| pennyroyalme, you sound as if you've taken Lithium?
From the post above you, who's taken Lithium and has implied this song describes it well, you need to stfu. |

| The video for "Lithium" is about sorrow and happiness working together. In the video, you see an Amy dressed in white (Representing happiness or pursuit of) and an Amy, under the water, dressed in black (Representing sorrow). Basically, both Amy's are almost singing to each other trying to see how both sorrow and happiness can work.
If you notice in the video, where the sorrow and happiness meet is in the scene with Amy sinking into the water. In essence, she's getting "rid" of her sorrow (Drowning it) and and at the end of the video, you see her reflection in the water meaning that Amy has let go of her sorrow side and is ready to move on to happiness.
Hope I got that right! |

LOL! I went as Amy Lee for Halloween but ended up going to FYE in the mall with my boyfriend and we bought The Open Door and went home and threw a party. Figures that we also gate-crashed my preppy sister's party.
Lithium is like one of the best songs ever and I am going to play it with my band, The Arctic Army, at 8th grade graduation. Hooray for Evanescence!  |
