Songfic - Evanescence "Hello"

Holly looked stunned almost, lying there so silently on the ground.

It should have been a dream

He should have woken up.

She shouldn't have died.

Playground,

School Bell Rings,

Again

Artemis looked upon the scene.

Holly lay bleeding on the ground.

The heavens let loose and rain poured down upon them.

She was gone

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

Artemis lay huddled on the ground, closing his eyes.

He rocked back and forth, wishing the macabre away.

"It's not real, It's not real, GOD, DON'T MAKE IT REALITY!"

He wept.

If I smile and don't believe

Soon I know I'll wake from this dream

Butler encouraged him to stand,

Instead he sat there screaming.

Don't try to fix me!

I'm not broken!

Holly's corpse twitched, settling into rigor mortis

"She's alive! She has to be!"

He nursed himself away from the pain,

He ran to her, pleading her to speak.

Hello, I'm the lie

Living for you so you can hide

Don't cry

Memories of her where are that Artemis could cling to,

As butler drug him away from the only thing that made sense

"BRING HER BACK! BRING HER BACK!"

He screamed, he needed her to be with him...

He straightened visibly, eyes going wide.

He followed quietly, tears trickling from deep blue eyes.

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping

Hello, I'm still here, all that's left of yesterday...
