I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light.
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
WHY in here tonight
And I can't STAND the pain
And I can't make it go away
No I can't STAND the pain
Sakura stared at the picture of her old team mates, Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi-sensei. All together and looking happy, well except for Sasuke, who never showed emotion. A tear fell from her eyes and splattered onto the picture as her memories flashed to their deaths.

How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
Sakura looked down at Naruto's body, he had tried to get Sasuke back, and was attacked by the Akatsuki, who killed him, much to their leader's displeasure. Sakura fell to her knees as she tried vainly to heal her dead companion. Sasuke looked at them for a moment before turning and leaving them there.

got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I'm fading away
Sasuke's eyes widened as blood dripped from his mouth. He looked down to see his own sword plunged through his stomach, how had this happened. He turned his head and saw his brother, who he had thought dead just a moment ago, his hand still on the sword. Sasuke's vision went white as Sakura's voice called to him with fear and terror.

I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
Sakura could do nothing as Kakashi-sensei activated his Mangekyou Sharingan's ability, creating a temporal vortex around Orochimaru, sucking him in, unfortunately Orochimaru was too close and Kakashi was sucked into his own technique, a look of shock in his eyes as his body was distorted and pulled into the vortex, the last thing to go was his mask and silver hair.
How could this happen to me?
* * * * * * *
Everybody's screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again
Tears fell freely from Sakura's eyes now, she didn't understand why she was still alive, why she had survived while the rest of her team died. She couldn't hold in her grief and her body was racked by sobs, the tears distorting the faces of the picture, yet they all missed Sakura, leaving her whole and unmarred. Sakura felt like she had betrayed her team mates by surviving, while they all died, like she had been the one to kill them. She stared at her hands, imagining her friends' blood on them, like they should be.
So I try to hold
On to a time when
Nothing mattered
And I can't explain what happened
And I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't
She beat her fist against the wall next to her, as new tears fell down her face. She ignored the frantic knocking for a moment before standing and opening the door revealing Ino.
"What do you want, Ino-pig?" Sakura asked sorrowfully as she wiped away the tears, not wanting to be seen crying in front of her friend and rival.
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me
"I just wanted to try to cheer you up, and see if you were okay," Ino said, looking hurt at Sakura's use of the nickname she had gotten while they were Academy students.
"I don't want to be cheered up," Sakura said as she closed the door in Ino's face. Then she turned and walked to the dresser, picking up a Kunai and holding it in her hand, sure of what she was going to do.
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
Sakura placed the kunai against her wrist and cut along her arm, knowing that that would give her the most blood loss. She did the same to the other arm and lay down on her bed, holding the picture of her team on her chest as the blood drained from her arms. As her vision faded she saw her team's happy faces one more time, even Sasuke, they all seemed pleased to see her. Then she knew no more in the mortal world, heading to the afterlife to be with her team, for all of eternity.
How could this happen to me?
