A/N: This a song-fic that I wrote based upon wombat-of-awesomeness's debut Hunger Games fic, Delusional. READ IT! This is from Annie's POV, while she's waiting for the husband that will never come back to her, you know, 'cause he's dead. Wombat-of-awesomeness, aka Hope, did give her full permission for me to post this.
It's half-past midnight and I can't sleep,
Waiting for the moment when you'll come and rescue me.
I'm pacing through the rooms
And the halls
Of my house,
When all around me is as quiet as a mouse.
You said that you'd be coming home soon enough,
So I haven't gotten rid of any of your stuff.
People come and visit me, worrying, talking,
And when my back is turned and they think I'm not watching,
They'll be calling me,
Crazy, crazy, crazy,
For saying you'll come home, home, home,
Any day, day, day now,
They're calling to me loud, loud, loud,
But I don't hear them.
'Cause I'm not crazy.
Your baby boy's fine, he looks just like you,
And he's a-wondering where his daddy's gone to.
The huntress and the baker, acting like my mother,
But she's long gone just like the others.
I haven't been sleeping anymore,
Knowing that you'll be at our door
Any minute now.
And if you aren't, well that's just fine,
I'll invite them in, so they can spend a little time,
But when my back is turned and they think I'm not watching,
They'll be calling me,
Crazy, crazy, crazy,
For saying you'll come home, home, home,
Any day, day, day now,
They're calling to me loud, loud, loud,
But I don't hear them.
'Cause I'm not crazy.
They can say anything they want,
I don't care,
They're all wrong,
'Cause I know
You're coming home,
I can feel it,
I can sense it,
I just know.
'Cause I'm not
Crazy, crazy, crazy,
For saying you'll come home, home, home,
Any day, day, day now,
They're calling to me loud, loud, loud,
But I don't hear them.
'Cause I'm not
Crazy, crazy, crazy,
For saying you'll come home, home, home,
Any day, day, day now,
They're calling to me loud, loud, loud,
But I don't hear them.
'Cause I'm not crazy.
No, I'm not crazy.
They can say anything, anything,
But I'm not crazy.
Just please come home,
Don't make me crazy.
