Hello (song)

""Hello"" 250px

"Hello" is the ninth track on the first studio album, Fallen. It is (along with "Like You") one of the two songs which are known to be about Amy Lee's sister who passed away of an unknown illness.

Background

The song was developed during the 2001-2002 demos and later released as track #9 on Fallen. It is the only Fallen song to date that has never been performed in a concert, because of the personal subject matter. However, a theme from the song has been used in the beginning of a few live shows in 2003 as the intro to the song "Going Under".

Lyrics

Playground school bell rings again Rain clouds come to play again Has no one told you she's not breathing? Hello, I'm your mind Giving you someone to talk to, hello If I smile and don't believe Soon I know I'll wake from this dream Don't try to fix me, I'm not broken Hello, I'm the lie Living for you so you can hide, don't cry Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping Hello, I'm still here All that's left of yesterday
