Sometimes You Cant Make It On Your Own.
A/N:POST Screwed.
El and Livs POV. I hope its not to hard to discern between to two.
A angsty E/O songfic.
I got the sense that the felt alone and that everything had changed with them at the end of screwed so I wrote a fic about a depressing E/O situation. lol
And Australia is yet to air season 9, so it wasnt taken into account with this fic.
Disclaimer: I dont on SVU. If I didnt Kathy wouldnt be with child and there would be E/O bliss.
----------------------
Tough, you think you've got the stuff ,
You're telling me and anyone,
You're hard enough,
You don't have to put up a fight,
You don't have to always be right.
Let me take some of the punches,
For you tonight.
"Kathy's pregnant"
"I didn't know you went back home"
"I haven't. Pathetic"
"What are you gonna do?"
His eyes narrowed at my words, as if to say "what the hell do you think im going to do?"
I was called away before I could tell him I didnt mean it like that.
But I know he knows.
He always knows
Listen to me now,
I need to let you know,
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
After all we've been through, we both know that we have each others backs.
But is that knowledge enough?
Enough to test another stage of life?
If something happens, will he make it on his own?
Will I make it on my own?
We fight all the time
You and I... that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need... I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
I shouldnt have snapped at her.
But I did.
You'd think after 8 years we would know how to prevent arguments.
Especially now, after everything.
Although I guess the fightings apart of who we are.
We always seem to find our way back to each other.
I suppose its because we never really leave to begin with.
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can you hear me when I Sing,
You're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me
When I dont hear her voice for days, people notice.
They tend to stay out of my way then.
When she was in Oregen,well, that was more than a few days.
She was once everything I had but now...
now i dont even know what I want let alone what I have.
Things are no longer as they were.
In some ways, we're back at the beginning.
Me with the family and her with the job she is tied too.
Even if we're half way though the beginning of the end,
she'll always be my reason.
Where are we now?
I've got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone
In some way, I will always chose him.
Its the same as it was with Gitano.
We chose each other and it never should have been like that.
Not at the cost of a life.
It doesnt matter now because we arent the same anymore.
He'll go home to Kathy and the kids.
Back to house that wont feel like a home.
And even though he might be here, I'll still be left alone.
Because hes got to move on, and leave me here.
And I doubt that he'll ever remember where here is.
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Everytime I look in the mirror I'll see her,
because shes apart of everything I am.
Everytime I say my name, I'll follow it with his,
because for so long, wherever I was, he was too.
Even if we're still partners, in the same sense, we wont be.
Sometimes you cant make it on your own.
Sometimes we cant make it on our own.
We wont make it on our own.
Sometimes you can't make it on your ownFIN.
