Random fact about song
Amy Lee has been quoted saying the song is about losing the comfort of sorrow. Lithium is a mood stabilizer that would take away the sorrow that the writer holds inside and she is not ready to let go of it. She has lived with sorrow so long that losing it now would be like losing a part of herself. That is what the whole refrain is about: "Lithium, Don't want to lock myself up inside, Lithium, Don't want to forget what it feels without, Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow." Lee's lyrics are often metaphorical and the words consist of double meanings. It's about her inner feelings toward herself.

Lithium lyrics:

Lithium, dont want to lock me up inside.

Lithium, dont want to forget how it feels without...

Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow.

Oh but God I want to let it go

Come to bed, dont make me sleep alone

Couldnt hide the emptiness, you let it show.

Never wanted it to be so cold.

Just didnt drink enough to say you love me.

I cant hold on to me

Wonder whats wrong with me.

-----chorus------

Dont want to let it lay me down this time.

Drown my will to fly.

Here in the darkness I know myself

Cant break free until I let it go

Let me go

Darling, I forgive you after all.

Anything is better than to be alone.

And in the end I guess I had to fall.

Always find my place among the ashes.

I cant hold on to me,

Wonder whats wrong with me.

----chorus------
