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

Hello Hidden Backward Message

This song has been alleged of having a backward audio message. If the last (lyrical) portion of the song is played backwards, then supposedly something like "Please and don't save her, still save her, it's hurts me all over, hear me it was not me at all" could be heard. (1). However, it is most likely to be a coincidence.
