author's notes: a song about the Troika. I have no musical talent, so it'll probably never be performed, haha. But I envision an indie-rock sorta feel for it. I've used dashes to separate the stanzas 'cause I didn't know how else to do it. This is my response to the episode Conversations With Dead People, which made me cry like a baby. I have SO much love in my heart for Jonathan and Andrew... (sobs)

Troika's End
Don't go
You're not finished yet
You've given up enough
This time, don't quit
--
Belltowers and broken hearts
They never listened, they never listened
Slowly, silently tear you apart
You're on a mission
--
Whisper in your sleep
Where you want to be
When you wake up.
When you wake up
Wake up
Don't go.

All wrong
Was too good to be true
Should've known from his tone
He never cared for you
--
Lairs and loose morals and life as a test
Following orders, following orders
Inviting in troubles you didn't expect
Run for the border
--
Don't you dare drift off
A dream, that's all it was
Damn every door still locked.
Doors still locked
Still locked
All wrong.
--
Memories we cannot trace
Back to beginnings, back to beginnings
--
If I could reach someone, anyone
He still needs me, he still needs me
Looking back, I loved every one
Oh, I still see, oh, I still feel
No regrets
No hesitation
This is what has to happen...
--
Memories we cannot trace
Back to beginnings, back to beginnings
Unreadable look on his dying face
Future is dimming
--
Whisper while you sleep
Who you want to be
When you wake up.
Don't want to wake up
Wake up
He's gone.
