I've seen a few people doing these song drabbles so I thought I'd give it a shot.


Snow Patrol- Set Fire to the First Bar

Jane lay gasping for air on the cold floor in the bar. Blood seeped from the hole in his side and he felt himself slipping away; the only thought running through his mind was that finally he would be able to see his wife and daughter again.

The bar was on fire and the windows had shattered; a huge lump of glass had pierced his side. But he didn't mind. Being in the bar had only depressed him hearing all the happy people laughing, even if it was only because they had consumed a little too much alcohol. The noises around him faded away and he found himself strangely at peace. He wasn't a religious or superstitious person but he could feel it, in his body, in his bones, in his heart; he would see them again. It was his last thought as he slipped away into the black.
