Superman(It's not easy): Five For Fighting
Harry sat at the top of the astronomy tower, not knowing what to do. To fling himself of of it, falling towards his death. Or to go back, put on the mask and be the Boy Who Lived To Be The Fixer of Everything.
He thought about it, but it wasn't until he heard someone calling his name he knew. He stood up, and just as Ron saw him he whispered a goodbye and he jumped....
The last thing he heard was Ron screaming his name, before everything went black.
I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me
I'm more than a bird...I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me
I Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see
It may sound absurd...but don't be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed...but won't you concede
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me
Up, up and away...away from me
It's all right...You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy...or anything…
I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees
I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
It's not easy to be me.
Break even: The Script
The writings were everywhere. On the walls, on the floor. They were written in blood.
"He doesn't love me."
"The bastard left."
"I can't live without him."
"I love him."
"Harry."
"The best part of me was always you."
"I'm falling to pieces."
"When a heart breaks it don't break even."
"Goodbye."
On the floor lay Ron, the boy who up until resently had been the lover of Harry Potter. Looks like he didn't take the break-up very well.
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a god that I don't believe in
Cos I got time while she got freedom
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break even
Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her 1st
While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven
What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and your ok
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
Cos she's moved on while I'm still grieving
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven
What am I suppose to do when the best part of me was always you
What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up and your ok
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame.
Now I'm tryna make sense of what little remains
Cos you left me with no love, no love to my name.
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a god that I don't believe in
Cos I got tI'me while she got freedom
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break even
What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you
What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up and your ok
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
Save you: Simple plan
I just wish I could save you, Draco thought as he sat on Harry's bed in the infirmary. Madame Pompfrey had allowed him to stay as he saw the heartbroken look on his face. Of all they had gone through together, Draco had never thought that he would lose Harry to cancer. He couldn't save his beloved soul mate. All he could do was to sit here, and support. Support when Harry fought, when he hurt, and finally when he gave up. Draco was the only one there as Harry died, after three years of fighting.
Take a breath
I pull myself together
Just another step till I reach the door
Youll never know the way it tears me up inside to see you
I wish that I could tell you something
To take it all away
Sometimes I wish I could save you
And therere so many things that I want you to know
I wont give up till its over
If it takes you forever I want you to know
When I hear your voice
Its drowning in a whisper
Its Just skins and bones
Theres nothing left to take
No matter what I do I cant make you feel better
If only I could find the answer
To help me understand
Sometimes I wish I could save you
And therere so many things that I want you to know
I wont give up till its over
If it takes you forever I want you to know
That if you fall, stumble down
Ill pick you up of the ground
If you lose faith in you
Ill give you checkup on through
Tell me you won't give up cause Ill be waiting if you fall
Oh you know Ill be there for you
(Ahahaha)
If only I could find the answer
To take it all away
Sometimes i wish i could save you
And therere so many things that I want you to know
I wont give up till it's over
If it takes you forever I want you to know
(Oooh)
I wish I could save you
I want you to know
(Ohohh)
I wish I could save you (ohh)
Close my eyes forever: Lita Ford/Ozzy Osborne
Ron didn't want to open his eyes, if he did he was sure to see all the changes. Everything must have changed since Harry had left three days ago. The world must have darkened and the animals have died. There could not possibly be any more life left. So Ron closed his eyes. Wishing, hoping it would all remain the same.
Even though he know they had. Nothing would ever be the same.
So he just kept telling himself to keep his eyes closed. Close them forever.
Baby
I get so scared inside, and I don't really understand
Is it love that's on my mind, or is it fantasy
Heaven
Is in the palm of my hand, and it's waiting here for you
What am I supposed to do with a childhood tragedy
(Chorus)
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same...
Sometimes
It's hard to hold on
So hard to hold on to my dreams
It isn't always what is seems
When you're face to face with me
You're like a dagger
And stick me in the heart
And taste the blood from my blade
And when we sleep, would you shelter me
In your warm and darkened grave
(Chorus Repeat)
Will you ever take me
No, I just can't take the pain
But would you ever trust me
No, I'll never feel the same...Ohh...
I know I've been so hard to you
I know I've told you lies
If I could have just one more wish
I'd wipe the cobwebs from my eyes
(Chorus Repeat)
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
You gotta close you eyes for me
I can't fight this feeling: Reo Speedwagon
I can't fight this feeling any longer, Ron thought. He didn't know when the friendship he felt towards Harry had changed to love.
-Harry, follow me.
Harry didn't say anything, he just followed his best friend. They stopped in a old classroom. Roon stood in the middle of the room, looking at the moon through the window.
-My life has been such a whirlwind since I met you Harry, we have lived through so much together. But I must tell you something.
-What Ron, you can tell me anything buddy.
-I...I don't wanna be just friends anymore. Ron's voice was hoarse and trembled slightly. But Harry was quiet. They stood so for what Ron thought felt like minutes, finally he turned around.
-Ha...Harry?? His voice sounded so small, scared.
Harry looked at him. -You ... you love me??
-Yeah, I do.
Harry took three steps to close the distanse between the boys. Lips slided against each other and pink tounges tasted of butterbear, treacle tart and chocolate. And it was heaven.
I can't fight this feeling any longer.
And yet I'm still afraid to let it show.
What started out as friendship,
Has grown stronger.
I only wish I had the strength to let it show.
I tell myself that I can't hold out forever.
I said there is no reason for my fear.
Cause I feel so secure when we're together.
You give my life direction,
You make everything so clear.
And even as I wander,
I'm keeping you in sight.
You're a candle in the window,
On a cold, dark winter's night.
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.
And I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
It's time to bring this ship into the shore,
And throw away the oars, forever.
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
Come crushing through your door,
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you.
I've been running round in circles in my mind.
And it always seems that I'm following you, girl,
Cause you take me to the places,
That I'd known I'd never find.
And even as I wander,
I'm keeping you in sight.
You're a candle in the window,
On a cold, dark winter's night.
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.
And I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
It's time to bring this ship into the shore,
And throw away the oars, forever.
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
Come crushing through your door,
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
Hungry eyes: Eric Carmen
Grey eyes locked with blue ones. In the stormy grey eyes of Draco Malfoy, there was a hunger. A craving, a craving directed to the owner of the blue eyes.
The blue eyes returned the hunger, and Ron Wesley was filled up with the need for the other boy. He mouthed the room of recuirement and the blonde nodded.
I've been meaning to tell you
I've got this feelin' that won't subside
I look at you and I fantasize
You're mine tonight
Now I've got you in my sights
With these hungry eyes
One look at you and I can't disguise
I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and I
I want to hold you so hear me out
I want to show you what love's all about
Darlin' tonight
Now I've got you in my sights
With these hungry eyes
One look at you and I can't disguise
I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and I
I've got hungry eyes
Now I've got you in my sights
With those hungry eyes
Now did I take you by surprise
I need you to see
This love was meant to be
(SOLO)
I've got hungry eyes
One look at you and I can't disguise
I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and I
I've got hungry eyes
Now I've got you in my sights
With those hungry eyes
Now did I take you by surprise
With my hungry eyes
I need...
Hungry eyes
Now I've got you in my sights
With my hungry eyes
Every breath you take: Police
Ron watched, always. Every breath you take, everything you say, everything you do. I see it, I feel it, I know it. 'Cause you belong to me.
Draco knew, he could sense it. He wanted it, he needed it. Watch me, he thought, I belong to you.
They met during night's, they made love. Draco bottomed for Ron, he belonged there. And he loved it, he loved HIM.
It was a hidden love.
Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you
Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you
O can't you see
You belong to me
My poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby, please
O can't you see
You belong to me
My poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Every move you make
Every step you take
I'll be watching you
How am I supposed to live wothout you: Michael Bolton
Harry couldn't move, Draco had jumped in front of the killing curse. Draco was dead, Harry felt his world die with him.
The colours faded, the wind stilled and the sun stopped shining. Harry let his body fall to the ground, his life was over.
He didn't care that Voldemort was dead, he didn't care he saved the world. He just didn't care. He saw his friends sad looks as he let his body fade away.
He couldn't live without Draco. Just a month after he had saved the world, Harry Potter died of a broken heart.
I could hardly believe it
When I heard the news today
I had to come and get it straight from you
They said you were leavin'
Someone swept you heart away
From the look upon your face I see it's true
So tell me all about it, tell me 'bout the plans you're makin'
Then tell me one thing more before I go
Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
How am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone
I didn't come here for cryin'
Didn't come here to breakdown
It's just a dream of mine is coming to an end
An how can I blame you
When I built my world around
The hope that someday we'd be so much more than friends
And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreaming
When even now it's more than I can take
And I don't wanna face the price I'm gonna pay for dreaming
Now that your dream has come true
Here I go again: Whitesnake
Here I go again on my own, Draco thought. He was no longer the man he used to be. All that had died with the war. He no longer felt any joy in scaring the younger students, to pick on Granger and Weasley, not even making Harry's life miserable.
Maby I was born to walk alone, to have none other than himself. The slytherins no longer liked him since he decided to change sides in the war. To be honest he didn't like them either.
No to be alone was the only way to go.
I don't know where I'm goin
but I sure know where I've been
hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again.
Tho' I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for.
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.
Just another heart in need of rescue
waiting on love's sweet charity
an' I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go,
here I go again
