Far Away songfic

by redwallanderson

Wouldn't let me choose Star Wars as a category so eh. It's a dumb story anyways.

The black-armored monstrosity stood staring through the viewport of his personal Star Destroyer. In the twisted vista of that specter's mind scenes from another life jumbled together.

This time, This place

Misused, Mistakes

Too long, Too late

Who was I to make you wait?

A cold, unfeeling cybernetic hand slowly reached out to take a warm, soft hand of living flesh. A beautiful face framed by a white veil. A tender kiss as two intertwined beings were bound tighter in arcane matrimony.

Just one chance

Just one breath

Just in case there's just one left

A tall man with yellow eyes marching up the stairs of the Jedi Temple with an unstoppable legion of clone troopers at his back.

'Cause you know,

you know, you know

That I love you

I have loved you all along

And I miss you

Been far away for far too long

Two reunited lovers smiling at each other before stealing a passionate kiss in the discreet shadows of a vast Coruscant chamber.

I keep dreaming you'll be with me

and you'll never go

Stop breathing if

I don't see you anymore

A flower-covered repulsor casket bearing a queen, a Senator, a wife and a mother through streets thronged by mourners of two species.

On my knees, I'll ask

Last chance for one last dance

'Cause with you, I'd withstand

All of hell to hold your hand

Two lovers stealing a quick kiss full of love before they are dragged into an execution arena.

I'd give it all

I'd give for us

Give anything but I won't give up

'Cause you know,

you know, you know

So far away

Been far away for far too long

So far away

Been far away for far too long...

A cruel gloved hand clenching tightly shut into a fist, manipulating an energy field into clenching shut around the throat of a queen, a Senator, a wife, a mother. The body slowly crumpling...

So far away

Been far away for far too long

So far away

Been far away for far too long

But you know, you know, you know

I wanted

I wanted you to stay

'Cause I needed

I need to hear you say

That I love you

I have loved you all along

And I forgive you

For being away for far too long

So keep breathing

'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore

The black-armored monstrosity turned away from the viewport and the lush blue-green planet it overlooked.
