"If You Don't Mind" is a song by Evanescence. It was written by Amy Lee, Terry Balsamo, and Will Boyd[1] during The Open Door sessions, but had not been released on the final cut for the album. There was speculation that this song was going to be released as a B-side on the "Good Enough" single (Premium Maxi CD) but this turned out to be false.

According to EvanescenceVille, this song has already been finished and published as a B-side. Just like "Farther Away" on the "Bring Me to Life" Single.

In May 2007, a false intro appeared online, but was confirmed on EvThreads to be fake. This fake song was actually "True" by Akira Yamaoka, and is included in BSO of the video game of Silent Hill 2. In 2012, Amy Lee sung this song live for the first time in Brazil and it was later leaked by fans on YouTube.[2] The studio version leaked online in January 2013.

In 2017, this song was given an official release on the compilation album Lost Whispers as part of the Ultimate Collection box set.

Lyrics

Where's the light?
Killed my day
Lost in the dark of your ways
Wasted my energy, endlessly
On your sweet lie

And if you don't mind
I would like to live the lie that I will survive
And if you don't mind
I would love to slip away and leave your world behind

Insecure, I'm not so sure
You're not just faking something
Wasted our last day
I can't take the pain, babe

And if you don't mind
I would like to live the lie that I will survive
And if you don't mind
I would love to see the way you leave it all behind

And if you don't mind
I would like to live the lie that I will survive
And if you don't mind
If you don't mind
