Bring Me To Life Bass

(ver. 2)
Evanescence
Evanescence – Bring Me To Life
Drop D Tuning

We're doing this song at school and we needed the bass tabs but they were cr*p, so i 
improvised by just playing the bass note of each power chord, the way i play it on guitar. 
not a bassist, so i dont really know much, so just a reminder that this is an improvisation.

Feedback appreciated.

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb

Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
