APOCALYPTICA - Not Strong Enough (feat. Brent Smith of Shinedown)

I'm not strong enough to stay away. Can't run from you I just run back to you. Like a moth I'm drawn in to your flame, Say my name, but it's not the same. You look in my eyes, I'm stripped of my pride. And my soul surrenders, and you bring my heart to it's knees. [Chorus:] And it's killin' me when you're away, I wanna leave and I wanna stay. And I'm so confused, So hard to choose. Between the pleasure and the pain. And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right. Even if I try to win the fight, my heart would overrule my mind. And I'm not strong enough to stay away I'm not strong enough to stay away What can I do I would die without you In your presence my heart knows no shame I'm not to blame Cause you bring my heart to it's knees [Chorus] There's nothing I can do My heart is chained to you And I can't get free Look what this love's done to me [Chorus]

Not strong enough, strong enough Not strong enough, strong enough To stay away Not strong enough, strong enough Not strong enough, strong enough I'm not strong enough to stay away

Brent Smith of Shinedown is the guest vocalist on this Diane Warren penned track. Apocalyptica drummer Mikko Siren explained the hook up: "We met Brent two years ago and we saw Shinedown live. We were really impressed with his voice. So when we had the song we remembered him, we asked him in and we were lucky enough that he agreed."

The song was released as the third single from 7th Symphony. However Smith doesn't appear on the US release of the single because the band didn't do the paperwork. Instead, the American single, which came out on January 18, 2011, features Doug Robb of Hoobastank.
