SilverRogue: This is a sad songfic from Gaz's point of view. My personal belief is that Dib and Gaz's mom died when they were little, and that's why Gaz is the way she is. Being gothic is her way of dealing with it. In this fic, Gaz admits how much she really misses their mom, and that maybe Dib is handling it better than she is. If you review this fic, I'll make sure I read and review one of your (IZ-related) fics. Oh, BTW, I own nothing.



Stronger Than I Am



Life around here hasn't changed much.

It's all pretty much the same stuff

Day after day.

The only thing that keeps me goin seems to be the war Dib's tryin to wage

He's my life, my only angel

Always seems to find the rainbow after the rain

Lately he's so busy growin, I don't even think he knows mom's gone away

.

Dib finally learned to say goodbye

He's sleepin through the night

Dib don't wake up cryin

And he's walkin on her own

Dib don't need no one holding to his hand

And I hate to admit

He's stronger than I am

.

He ain't crackin under pressure.

First one step and then another

Dib goes along.

And if he falls and skins his knee

Dib whines a while then smiles at me, and just goes on.

So many things that he can teach me

Full of life and so completely unhesitant

He still thinks I could be happy

Goes on just like nothin happened.

Forgives and forgets.

He's just like his old man

Stronger than I am .
