Please come now, I think I'm falling
I'm holding on to all I think is safe
It seems I've found the road to nowhere
And I'm trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say
He stares outside, trying to think what it would be like
to be normal. Not being able to put the past behind he carries
the burden of death on his shoulders always. It bares into him
and it hurts too much. Looking into sad eyes you can see bits
of fear along with that sadness. That fear that says and tells
you how you'll always be at fault for those deaths...those who
were innocent.
Glancing at his hands, he can't see anything else but blood.
Thinking in his mind that he will never be rid of it, he lets
the tears fall as he rests his head in his bloodstained hands.
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
He's asleep now. Tear streaks mark his face. In a fetal position
shaking, you can hear the fear as he cries in his sleep. The
shock of his new emotions towards this death is so devastating
to his self conscious, it hurts as much as the pain for those
who were innocent. No one knows how much it hurts him. Not even
the one he cares most for. She'll never know for fear of reject
and not knowing how to ask for her love.
Eyea appears in the crack in door. They see the pain as he
sleeps in fear and in the hellish nightmares that his mind produces.
Worriment shines through those eyes, but they don't know what
to do. No help this soon.
I'm looking down now that it's all over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out Heaven save me
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say
Waking up in sweat. His heart beating fast within him. He
slowly calms his breathing and tries to stand up. Being to weak,
he lays back down. Lifting a hand to his face, it shakes faster
than his heart. Clutching his hand, he rests his head down and
breathes out slowly. Hearing the handle of his room turn he quickly
pulls the covers back and fakes his slumber. I don't want
anyone else involved. No one...
A young girl, his age, walks over to his side and places
a hand on his shoulder. She just sits there and doesn't move.
Her long black hair is tied back and her red and black pjs are
a little big. Lightly stroking his hair he eventually really
falls asleep.
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
In the morning, she's still there. He eases her off but she
still awakes to his touch. Green eyes stare into his endless
colbat blue eyes. He lowers his head, knowing she know. She lightly
touches his cheek, turning his face towards her. Slowly they
get closer...he pulls away as soon as she's to close. Walking
away ashamed.
Everyone is out. He's alone. He pulls back his sleeve to
reveal concealed slash marks. Softly touching one he winces in
pain and pulls the sleeve back and hugs his arm, rocking.
Sad eyes follow me
But I still believe that there's something left for me
So please come stay with
Cause I still believe there's something left for you and
me
For you and me
For you and me
She walks into his room. Noticing a figure on the bed, curled
up, she walks over and sits next to him. Waking him, he sits
up and looks her in the eyes with sad ones. He lets her hold
him for a while, letting the tears fall slowly, silently.
They fall asleep together holding each other. When they wake
up, she sees the scars on his arms and worriment becomes more
severe in her heart. He looks away. She shakes her head and smacks
him across the face. Not in anger but from worrying and love.
He stands up looks her in the eyes. She stares back and asks
him to tell her why.
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking.
Telling all, the tears come more. She strokes his hair gently
and holds him against her. After a while, she gets up to leave,
believing he just needs some time to be alone. He grabs her arm
and stands up. Pulling her closer to him, they meet at the lips.
She smiles and pulls him in for another.
Things got better but the night demons still come at times.
But at least he now realizes it's not his fault.
