I do Not own any of the characters mentioned within, or the lyrics, have a nice day
I dreamed I was missing and you were so scared
Tails flies through the forest, knowing what he'll find but unable to wake up.
But no one would listen 'cause no one else cared
He sees Cosmo crying, just like he always does, and flies toward her, hand outstretched.
After my dreaming, I woke with this fear
She turns to him, tears running down her face, and reaches toward him.
What am I leaving when I'm done here
He can see the fire starting to burn at her legs, making its way up. "No!"
So if you're asking me I want you to know
Just before their hands touch, the fire consumes her.
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Tails sits up in his bed, tears streaming down his face, as with every night since Cosmo had died.
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
He gets up and walks to his workshop, Cosmo still heavy on his mind.
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
He opens a hidden cupboard and pulls out a small object, a miniature Power Cannon.
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest
Tails holds it, torn between destroying it now, or finishing and using it, then sighs and takes it to his bench.
Don't be afraid, I've taken my beating, I've shed but I'm me
Another two weeks of guilt, of living hell.
I'm strong on the surface, not all the way through
Tails puts on a smile for his friends, hiding the emptiness and pain, and his solution
I've never been perfect, but neither have you
Not even Sonic, his adoptive big brother, realizes how much he's suffering.
So if you're asking me I want you to know
He gives Sonic one last hug and a whispered "I love you Sonic. I'm sorry." Before making his last trip to his workshop.
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done.
Tails takes out a small paper and writes a note, asking his friends to forgive him and not blame themselves.
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
He takes the small weapon from its cupboard, grabs the potted plant, his last tie to Cosmo, and leaves
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Tails flies to the forest, to where Cosmo had first landed, he felt closest to her there.
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest
He finds it easily, the crater is still there, and stands at the edge looking in.
Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well.
He takes the plant down to the hole and transfers it from the plant to the soil
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
His tears fall on the small leaves, causing them to glisten and drip.
I can't be who you are
He closes his eyes, reliving those few minutes before the Metarax planet was destroyed.
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Tails takes the slim weapon from its container, then takes a single cartridge from his pocket.
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
He slips it into the only opening in the weapon, hearing a soft click.
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
He looks up into the sky, then points the slender barrel at his temple, just in front of his ear
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest
He closes his eyes, letting one last breathe out, and pulls the trigger
Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
There's no sound, no pain,nothing, he opens his eyes
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
He looks down at the small plant that had bloomed, and at his still form next to it.
I can't be who you are
She looks up and smiles sadly at him. "I'm sorry, Tails, but it was the only thing I could do. I love you Tails, always remember that. I'm always with you.
I can't be who you are
Cosmo leans forward and softly presses her lips to Tails'. The young fox loses consciousness, waking up inside his workshop with just memories and Cosmo's flower pendant.
