Hey! I'm Back! Here's my first attempt at a Fullmetal Alchemist Fanfic. If there are any mistakes or you have suggetions on how to make it better, tell me in a review. I will do whatever to make it better.
No pairings. Just brotherly love.
Disclaimer: I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist. Nor do I own Perfect World. That belongs to Simple Plan.
Perfect world
I never could have seen this far
I never could have seen this coming
It seem like my world's falling apart
I wish I saw this coming. And, if I would have, maybe you wouldn't have left.
Why is everything so hard?
I don't think I can deal
With the things you said
It just won't go away
It's too hard. It's hard to forget. It's too hard to move on. Your face haunts my dreams at night. Your memory haunts my thoughts during the day. Every word you said. Every moment of that day. It all won't leave me alone.
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
Why you, Brother? Why? Haven't we paid for all our sins with the pain and hardships we faced over the past 5 years? Why did you have to leave, too? Why couldn't we live together as a family?
And it makes no sense
I can just pick up the pieces
But to you this means nothing
Nothing at all
I continue living. I continue to help people. I gathered the pieces of our broken childhood. But, yet, nothing matters. Nothing will bring you back.
I used to think that I was strong
Until the day it all went wrong
After everything that we've been through. I thought that nothing could hurt me anymore. After mom, after Nina, after Dad, after Hughes, I thought I was strong. But you proved me wrong.
I had my body back, but why didn't you stop? Why didn't you leave the military? I stayed with Winery while you were gone. I always kept my hope. You came back whenever you could, but, why? Why didn't you just stay here?
I think I need a miracle to make it through
You were the only family I had left! You were everything to me! As long as you were there, nothing hurt me. The darkness was chased away. And the monsters never could get me. I have nothing to live for now. Oh! How can I make it through life without you?
I wish that I can bring you back
I can't bring you back. I know that after the mistake with mom. I know that it would only bring more pain on everyone else and you, my Brother. And I couldn't take that. I couldn't live with myself if I did.
I wish that I could turn back time
Maybe. Maybe, if I would of tried harder. Tried harder to keep you here. You wouldn't be gone. You'd be here. Sparring with me. Or on a picnic with Winery. Doing something. But you wouldn't be gone.
Cuz I can't let go
I just can't find my way
Without you I just can't find my way
I just don't know what to do without you. I'm lost and nobody seems to care. Why did you leave me on my own?
I don't know what I should do now
I don't know where I should go
What should I do? You always have been there. Whether the next room over or a phone call away. You were always there and ready to help me. I just don't know anymore! I'm just not sure about anything anymore! Tell me what I should do!
I'm still here waiting for you
I wake up everyday, expecting to find you sitting at the breakfast table with a smile on your face.
I still live everyday, waiting for your call. Or a letter with you scribbles you call handwriting.
I still watch the door. Hoping you'll walk through it.
I'm lost when you're not around
I need to hold onto you
I just can't let you go
The only thing keeping me alive is the memory of your smile when I had first gotten my body back. Right after I had first smiled at you. I cry myself to sleep. Only to be haunted by your love for me and others close to you.
In a perfect world
This could never happen
I remember the day perfectly. How the night, itself, was silent. How the storm rained so hard, the raindrops formed an ever going fog. All the sounds of us getting ready to go to sleep. All was interrupted by a soft, yet loud knock on the door. We all became really excited. We all thought that only you would visit this late at night. But we opened the door to see Colonel Mustang. The way his head hung, I knew. Somehow I knew. I just didn't believe.
In a perfect world
You'd still be here.
The day of your funeral, it was cloudy. As they carried your coffin to your grave, I thought it was all a dream. It had to be! No! Not you. You could never die. But I knew it wasn't a dream. And the lower you got in your grave, the more alone I felt. The more isolated I was. I couldn't cry when we found out, I still believed you'd come back. But, as they piled the dirt on your coffin, I couldn't stop.
An it makes no sense
I can just pick up the pieces
I stood there for hours. Slowly, everyone left. I was dark by the time we were alone. Just you and me. I fell to my knees in front of the gravestone. I read it over and over again. Hoping the name on it would change. But it never did.
Edward Elric
1918-1937
A boy with a dream
A man with a promise
A god with a heart
But to you this means nothing
Nothing at all
Why did you leave me, Brother? Why? Why didn't you listen to me and stay?
You feel nothing
Nothing at all
Now I have to say goodbye.
Thanks for reading! And don't forget to tell me how to improve it!
