So, interestingly enough on first listen I recognized this song. I knew I've heard it before. It kept bugging me because I couldn't place my finger on it. Then I realized, that when I was about 14 or so, I wrote a song that had a very similar melody as the verses and the lyrics were very similar too. I told my husband that I must have telepathically sent that info to Amy. XD

^ Some have said Another Piece Of The Puzzle might’ve been an early version of Feeding The Dark.

God I missed Amy's lower register and the more haunting material that we saw prior to Ev3! This is so good! This. All of this!

I'm really hoping for an official instrumental! 💜 Same. I'm hoping for HQ Instrumentals for ALL of The Bitter Truth, The Chain, TOD, Ev3, and Fallen. I'd also like isolated vocals or even stems of some songs! haha!

This song evokes old Ev somehow, but not pre-Fallen material. It's very Ev classic, and I love Amy's lower register that we haven't heard ever since TOD. And I wonder why songs she wrote with Will Science end up being my favourites even before knowing the writing credits... haha.
The violin after the first verse is so haunting and beautiful. The lyrics on the bridge "if we run from ourselves, we will run forever" resonates so much to me on a personal level. It's just about finding and embracing yourself.

Yes, that makes sense, taking into account that the song was written for the Broken Record (original Ev3), because around that time (from 2007 to 2009) she took a break from the band/spotlight to figure out who she was. She can't run away from herself being a writer/musician, this is who she is. This is a recurrent thing for her after every album cycle. This is my take on these lyrics after you pointed out that maybe she was addressing it to herself. She could've changed the lyrics from 10 years ago to fit into the album concept as well.

If I'm being honest even though I love the song when I initially interpreted the lyrics as her saying it to someone else (it could be both really) I thought they were a bit cheesy and relentless? On the "And I will never let you forgeeeeet!!!" As compared to: We can't hide from ourselves and we can't lie to ourselves we know all our secrets and we can't forget them and if we do that we will run forever. I like that interpretation more, personally

I like that interpretation more, personally I've been in the same boat lately with these lyrics. Deciding that she is personifying the dark and speaking to herself/others really helps me appreciate the content as a whole. If I can spin their songs' perspectives to become more self-aware or introspective, it's easier for me to connect -- this song is already so rich with its conceit of self-acceptance through darkness. The only lyrics I shrug at a bit are in the chorus, which sound rather bland (her growing obsession with rhyming couplets occasionally limits the breadth of lyrical expression for me). But she sells the hell out of them with the belting, and the contrast between the low and sinister melodies elsewhere is just divine. And then the high background notes at the end... She is queen of the dynamics.
