This is an Evanescence song called "Hello." I heard it in high school and I'd play it over and over because it described all the lonliness I felt. It still descbribes me now that I know about AS and in a way makes even more sense to me. I could probably write a whole essay, line by line, of what each part of this song means to me (I like poetry explications), but I'll leave it up to the reader, unless ya'll want me to say something about its significance to me if it is not obvious. I put the most significant parts in bold.

Playground school bells ring again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello I am 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 am 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

That is one of my favourite Evanescence songs... I love it. Another to look for is 'Away from me'

Heres a song for you to try.. It is by Lacuna Coil they are my favourite band. But the words in this song describes a lot of how I feel too.

When A Dead Man Walks

Paranoia
In which I think that I'm not confident
Blood into my hands I can't deny
A buzz into my ears that makes me mad

But I don't look back
While I'm waiting to die
I don't look back
In a weird lullaby
I'll carryon

And the hope in my heart is dry

But I don't look back
And I cannot reply
I don't look back
While I'm waiting to lie
I'll carry on
While they want to decide for me

Once again

Living in their cage
They are killing me

Paranoia
In which I think I'm not that confident
A tiny hope that burns into my breath
A bitter smile delights me at the end

Prefer the Evanescence lead singer... much more mysterious and natural looks. I think the video for 'Bring me back to life' is diabolical though...it must be, it has me in fits of laughter...
