I open my eyes, I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light,
Squall woke slowly to the sounds of screams and people running.
I can't remember how, I can't remember why,
I'm lying here tonight,
He sat up suddenly, as it all came rushing back in images that chilled him to the bone.
And I can't stand the pain,
And I can't make it go away,
No I can't stand the pain,
She was gone.
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes,
If only he hadn't been thinking about what might happen when they got home, maybe he wouldn't have crashed.
Got nowhere to run,
The night goes on as I'm fading away.
He hauled himself to his feet and began to look for her, calling for her, but in his heart, he knew it.
I'm sick of this life,
I just wanna scream,
How could this happen to me?
It was over.
Everybody's screaming, I try to make a sound but no one hears me,
He collapsed to his knees, whispered her name as though it would bring her back.
I'm slipping off the edge, I'm hanging by a thread,
I wanna start this over again,
"Rinoa."
So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered,
He tried and tried to believe that he couldn't have helped it, that it wasn't his fault, but he couldn't wipe the memory of her face from his mind.
And I can't explain what happened,
And I can't erase the things that I've done,
No I can't
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes,
Got nowhere to run,
The night goes on as I'm fading away.
Squall let his mouth talk for him when Quistis and Dr. Kadowaki turned up, but his mind was wishing that he could have stopped it from happening.
I'm sick of this life,
I just wanna scream,
How could this happen to me?
He wished that he could die, just to see her again. But he knew that was not what she'd want him to do.
I've made my mistakes,
Got nowhere to run,
The night goes on as I'm fading away.
So he whispered once again into the night, "Rinoa…"
I'm sick of this life,
I just wanna scream,
How could this happen to me?
"I love you."
