Hello again
Lost Prophets Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello again, why so old?
Wasn't time your friend, I must be told
Hello again, it seems so long
Since we last met, how has it gone?

Don't accept the blame
I would, I would not complain
Cause I'm sure it wasn't your own fault
That you never made it out your vault
Just lock the door, and find some time to scream
To scream again

Just say when, and you'll stop the pain
Of your life, bring it to an end
Just say when, and you could make amends
Just say hello, say hello again

Hello again, it's not that hard
No dead ends, even with the scars

Don't accept the blame
I would, I would not complain
Cause I'm sure it wasn't your own fault
That you never made it out your vault
Just lock the door, and find some time to scream

Just say when, and you'll stop the pain
Of your life, bring it to an end
Just say when, and you could make amends
Just say hello, say hello again

You have no home, you lost your throne, where has it gone?
Well it could all come back
But you're being led by the walking dead
You stumble and you cracked the ground
You're pinned down

Just say, when
You could stop the pain
Just say when and you could make amends
Just say hello
Say hello, again





Hello again, hello again, hello again, hello again
It's not the end if you just say hello again
