Kiss it all better:
He sits in his cell
And he lays on his bed
Covers his head and closes his eyes
He sees a smoking gun
And the coward he ran
And in his arms is the bleeding love of his love
And she cried
She's gone. She's gone. She's gone. Damon repeating in his mind. Elena's gone. Putting his hand on his head he cried. He had witnessed Elena's life fade and he hadn't done anything about it. She had walked out of the boarding house smiling and that's when he heard the bang. He sprinted outside to find Elena on the ground, looking up he saw the back of a man, who was sprinting away.
Kiss it all better
I'm not ready to go
It's not your fault, love, you didn't know.
You didn't know
"Damon, make it stop, I don't wanna die. ", Elena's whispers echoed in his mind.
"I don't know what to do. Elena you're going to feel faint and it'll all be over soon. This is all my fault, I should've taken you home. ", Damon's voice croaked.
"Damon don't blame yourself for this, you didn't know he was out here. "
Her hands are so cold
And he kisses he face
And says, everything will be alright.
He noticed the gun
And his rage grew inside
He said, I'll avenge my love tonight.
And she cried,
Her whole body was turning cold and he kissed her forehead, whispering that everything would be alright.
He looked in the direction of the man and saw the abandoned gun sitting on the ground.
"I'll kill him. "
Kiss it all better
I'm not ready to go
It's not your fault, love, you didn't know.
You didn't know
Damon no, please don't. ", whispered Elena.
How was she still like this? A man had just shot her in the chest and she wanted him to spare his life.
"Promise me you won't kill him. ", Elena forced out, blood coming from her nose.
"I promise. I love you Elena. ", said Damon, tears now spilling freely down his cheeks.
"I know, and I think somewhere along the line, I fell for you. This is the end of my story Damon, but not the end of yours. Tell them all that I said it wasn't painful, that I wasn't afraid, goodbye Mr. Salvatore. ", said Elena.
"Sleep tight. ", was the last thing she heard as her life faded.
Now he sits behind prison bars
25 to life and she's not in his arms
He can't bring her back
It was a bullet to the heart
And the back of a man who tore his world apart.
He holds onto a memory.
All he has is a memory.
Now he stands behind prison bars. He didn't kill the guy but as his sadness turned to rage he sure threatened him. Damon remembered the gun pointing at the man was knocked out of his hands and he was being tackled to the ground by three men. 25 to life, huh? What was he going to tell them in 25 years when he was still a; to quote Elena, a hot 24 year old drop-out soldier from 1864. So now he hold onto a memory.
It's all he has left.
