I think this might work for both Nick in his ordeal in Lirael and Abhorsen, or Sabriel's father thinking about her from beyond the 9th gates of Death, therefore I have decided to write both. :D I own no one, they belong to Garth Nix and the song, City of Devils belongs to Yellowcard.
Man
once sang to me
Look at you saving the world on your own
And I

Find
somebody to learn
Boy, you gotta love someone more than yourself
I
can feel the fire of the city lights burn

And I
Feel like I don't belong
And I

He was in a sad state… he couldn't tell how long he'd been there…
Questions
I can't seem to find
To the answers I already have
And you
can't see the sky here at night
So I guess I can't make my way

He didn't know why. He'd done nothing wrong.. Why was he trapped here?
