Unusual disclaimer: every radio I overhear seems to be playing Britney Spears' "Everytime" so it get it out of my head I thought I'd try a songfic. I only use the chorus because that's the bit I keep overhearing (and the fic's too short to use the whole song).
I see your face, it's haunting me
And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
Trinity... Come on Trinity. The security guard leans over the window edge, shirt strained over a beer gut, hat that fits too tight to fall off and badge over his heart. Aim, Trinity. Fire Trinity. Aim at that badge and fire.
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
I'm falling and counting the floors. I know one of two things will happen. Either I'm gonna somehow find the strength to spin into a somersault and run out of trouble, or I go splat. Neo should have known telling me to stay out wasn't gonna work. You needed a hacker. You needed me, Neo. Come on, Trinity, aim, fire.
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
Neo, now! I know that bullet's hit home. I know this is the dream you couldn't tell me about, that stopped you sleeping. If you'd told me, maybe I could have... what? Would I have done anything differently? Neo, I'm losing. I can't fight anymore. I can't do this. I can't.
I guess I need you baby
And you just scoop me out of the air, land on a roof, tear out the bullet and hold me. And I hesitate: all those things I need to tell you and the words fall from my mind. Trinity, focus. Neo, I'm not scared anymore. Why can't I say it? Because the weight of your head on my shoulder says it all.
