"Listen To the Rain" is an outtake that was going to be included on Evanescence's demo album, Origin, but never made the final cut. It was originally intended to play in-between the former part of "Eternal" and the latter half of it which is called "Demise".^{[citation needed]} This is a choir song written and directed by Lee in high school for her high school choir, and was performed by the choir in graduation. Lee was the choir president. The part of the song with the word 'listen' repeated multiply was supposed to represent the rain falling.

Lyrics

Listen, listen Listen, listen Listen, listen Listen, listen Listen [listen], listen [listen] Listen [listen], listen [listen] Listen [listen], listen [listen] Listen, listen Listen to each drop of rain [listen, listen] Whispering secrets in vain [listen, listen] Frantically searching for someone to hear Their story before they hit ground Please don't let go Can't we stay for a while? It's just too hard to say goodbye Listen to the rain Listen, listen, listen, listen Listen, listen to the rain weeping Ooh ooh oh oh oh oh Ooh ooh oh oh oooh Listen [listen], listen [listen] Listen [listen], listen I stand alone in the storm [listen, listen] Suddenly, sweet words take hold [listen, listen] Hurry, they say, for you haven't much time Open your eyes to the love around you You may feel you're alone But I'm here still with you You can do what you dream Just remember to listen to the rain Ooh ooh oh oh oh oh Ooh ooh oh oh oooh [Listen]
