This song is talking about Amy's sister's death. The first verse is describing the setting that Amy was in when she found out her sister had passed away. She was in a playground at school, and it was beginning to rain. She's talking to herself in the first verse as she has no one else to talk to. In the second verse, it's describing her coping method... her mind decided to pretend like it was all fake... that it wasn't real. She convinced herself that she was just in a bad dream. Her parents probably tried to take her to therapy or somewhere to get help to cope about this, but she's saying "don't try to help me, I don't need help... my sister isn't dead." The second verse is basically "the lie" talking to Amy. In the third verse her mind realizes that she actually isn't in a bad dream, her sister really has passed away but she knows she has to move on.
