Okay this is my second songfic. It should be obvious who in
FF8 is speaking here. If isn't too obvious I don't own this song or the
characters from FF8, I take no credit for them.
No
No, I'm not making that promise again
Nothing can change my mind
I don't need anyone else. Everyone has to look out for themselves.
Nothing at all
Everyone is trying to set us up together even I can see that. It's stupid; when you depend on other people they eventually let you down. The only person you can be sure of is yourself.
Cuz love, has a way of coming undone
I've been through this before. I don't need to be abandoned again. Can't they understand that no one is there forever? I depended on sis before, so it only hurt more when she left in the end.
Till I'm all alone with my heart
It's okay sis, I can manage on my own. I don't need you to take care of me anymore.
And here I'll stay
I don't need her either. I don't want to rely on anyone else. I'll just be hurt again.
And I always thought I'd see you again
I waited for you sis. I remember standing apart from the others just hoping for you to come home. What a pathetic scene, the little five-year-old standing in the rain for someone who never came.
How it hurts
Every time you've crossed my heart since then
Your influence stayed in my heart, even if the guardian forces kept me from remembering what happened. The lesson remained engraved in my soul. What a pathetic life.
Gotta give it all it takes
To hold what might have been
But I always thought I'd see you again
It took a long time to get over it back when I could still remember you. Fleeting images come to memory, running away from the little stone house because I thought I saw you coming.
Now, there's no reason to run for the phone
No need to hold my breath
Hoping it's you
I finally did realize that you were gone for good. When I decided to give up on you was the same time I decided to give up on people in general.
Each time, I see someone we used to know
Or go someplace we used to go
It's not the same
So how is it I got caught up in this mess again? These people haven't failed yet, and she has remained soft and gentle while I try to stay harder than stone.
Cuz I always thought I'd see you again
Oh
how it hurts
Every time you've crossed my heart since then
Maybe now that I've seen you again it still hurts. A wound stay a long time, but is it possible that it can finally start to heal? They babble about trust and friendship and other fantasies that the lot of them seems to believe. Yet it seems that when I'm not watching myself I find my traitor of a heart believing them too.
Gotta give it all it takes
To hold what might have been
Cuz I always thought I'd see you again
I've been holding on to you for too long. There were others who would have cared, but I couldn't see past one betrayal. You never said goodbye. You even had a good reason to go, but you didn't say goodbye.
Love doesn't come when you need love
It's not always there when you fall
I needed someone then. I just didn't realize that that person wasn't going to be you. I wanted it to be you.
Try as you may
You've got nothing to say
Nothing at all
But you didn't come back. After so long can the impossible happen? I've been denying it all along but I'm falling in love again. If I lose her too I'll be hurt, but the others will be there for me as well. Friends are fun for the good times, but they stay in the bad times too.
I always thought I'd see you again
How it hurts every time you cross my heart again
Gotta give it all it takes
To hold what might have been
I should have seen this being a soldier. The world is full of meetings and partings, I shouldn't worry so much about the partings when the meetings have been good.
Cuz I always thought I'd see you again
I always thought I'd see you … again
