The most personal song ever written and released by Amy Lee and this is the only Fallen song that has never been performed in a concert to date though the band considered doing it back in 2003 and a theme from the song was 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

Notes and References

- ↑ This version was used as an intro in Rock Am Ring 2003. Actually, this version featured only the cello solo of the bridge, mixed with a synthesizer sound on the background. The whole intro was a blend of parts by Hello, Imaginary, Tourniquet and Whisper.
- ↑ More dates, if they exist, needed
