Disclaimer: I don't own Dallas Winston, S.E. Hinton does. And I don't own the song either, "City Of Devils" belongs to the band Yellowcard.
K guys, this is my first songfic so plz be nice!
Someone said to me once… "You can't do everything by yourself". Fuck them, I can. I don't need anyone else, I can survive on my own.
Man
once sang to me
Look at you saving the world on your own
So I'm on my own now. Not that I ever wasn't. But… sometimes I just wonder if everything's gonna turn out alright. It seems like everything goes so slow.
And
I wonder how things gonna be
'Cause the time here it passes so
slow
But some things go fast. Johnny. Johnny went fast. His life, I mean. He's gone. I tried to die, but I lived. I wanted to be dead, and I'm Dallas Winston. I get what I want. Well, not this time. But why does it have to be like this? They took Johnny, man, why does fate have to be so cruel like that?

A city of devils we live
Find somebody
to learn
Boy you gotta love someone more than yourself
I did love someone more than myself. Johnny mattered to me.
Flying along, and I
I
can feel the fire of the city lights burn
It's hard to find angels
in hellThere are no angels in Hell. Maybe Sylvia. I think
I loved her. But she didn't love me, oh no, she cheated on me when
I was gone, thought I wouldn't find out. She was the angel in hell
for a while. Not anymore. I'm on my own, and I don't care about
her or anyone else.
Feel like I
don't belong and I,
Can't tell right from the wrong, why,
Have
I been here so long
I don't belong here. I belong in New York, where nobody actually cares, just like me. I don't care about right and wrong. I actually prefer wrong. I'm proud of my police record. But I've been here for way too long.
Questions
I can't seem to find
In
a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live
To the answers I already have
And you
can't see the sky here at night
So I guess I can't make my way
back
I
have so many questions I don't have any answers to. Why did Johnny
have to die? Why am I like this? Alone. Cold and hard. Dead to the
feeling world. The only feeling I feel nowadays is hate. Anger. Lust.
What if I wanted you here right now
If I wanted Johnny with me now, he'd come.If he could. But he can't, God took him away from me.
Would
you fall in the fire burn me down
Johnny died in the fire for those snotty kids. I don't like little kids. And this is just another reason for me to hate them. Johnny's dead because of them. And because Johnny had a heart.
In a city of devils
we live
If
I wanted you here right now
Would you fall in the fire burn me
down
If I wanted you here right now...
In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live
In
a city of...
So
now I'm sitting here, I shouldn't be thinkin' about all this
stuff. I've thought about it too long. I've been here too long,
here as in grieving. I just can't do this anymore. But I don't
know what to do… I don't belong
Don't belong
I've
been here too long
Too long
Alright, there's the end. Please review! And don't forget this is my first songfic so don't be too hard on me!
