UGH I'M SORRY- I'M PROCRASTINATING.
I should be working on LFLO and Prince of Hearts, but the plot bunny decided to show, and I had to write this down.
So! This isn't my best work ever, but I had to write it. It's also my first attempt at a songfic (using one of my very favorite songs ever).
Disclaimer: I don't own KH or the song Marchin On by OneRepublic.
For those days we felt like a mistake,
Those times when love's what you hate,
Somehow…
We keep marchin on.
Roxas closed his eyes, tilting his head towards the skies, letting the rain pour down his face, masking his tears.
His heart ached, and his body shook with trying to hold back his sobs. Sinking to the ground, he hung his head, letting the rain caress his face.
For those nights that I couldn't be there,
I've made it harder to know that you know,
That somehow…
We'll keep movin on.
He remembered the warnings, the pity, the words that he had shrugged off.
"You'll get hurt," they had warned, "You'll regret it."
There's so many wars we fought,
There's so many things we're not,
But with what we have,
I promise you that,
We're marchin on.
We're marchin on.
He had been strong, trudging through thick and thin, keeping his head held high and never breaking down.
But with every success…
For all of the plans we made,
There isn't a flag I'd wave ,
Don't care where we've been,
I'd sink us to swim
We're marchin on.
We're marchin on.
…there is a downfall.
For those doubts that swirl all around us,
For those lives that tear at the seams ,
We know
Were not what we've seen.
He knew he had to move on.
But it was so damn hard to just let go.
Oh,
For this dance we move with each other,
There ain't no other step,
Than one foot
Right in front of the other
Oh.
Put one foot in front of the other.
Keep going.
Don't stop.
Don't let yourself fall.
But somehow…
Theres so many wars we fought,
Theres so many things we're not,
But with what we have,
I promise you that,
We're marchin on.
We're marchin on.
…he couldn't get back up.
For all of the plans we made,
There isn't a flag I'd wave,
Don't care where we've been,
I'd sink us to swim,
We're marchin on.
We're marchin on.
Taking deep breaths, Roxas opened his eyes.
The world seemed so much darker.
But he had to get up.
Your downfall is not always your end.
Right Right Right Right Left,
Right Right Right Right Left,
Right Right Right Marchin On.
The rain still pouring, the world still crying, Roxas braced his hands on his knees, slowly rising.
You must let go of the past…
We'll have the days we break,
And we'll have the scars to prove it,
We'll have the bomb that we saved,
And we'll have the heart
Not to lose it.
…and step into your future.
For all of the times we fought,
For all of the things I'm not.
And no matter what comes your way…
Oh!
You put one foot in front of the other,
We go where we go we're marchin on,
Marchin on.
…no matter how many times you fall…
Theres so many wars we fought,
Theres so many things we're not,
But with what we have,
I promise you that,
We're marchin on.
We're marchin on.
Right Right Right Right Left,
Right Right Right Right Left,
Marchin on..
Marchin on.
We're marchin on.
So, I totally get the lyrics didn't really connect at all until the end, and I constantly changed POVs (first/second/third person views), and Roxas didn't really fit in all that much. So, it's not the best songfic of all time, but it sufficed.
TO REALLY GET THE MOOD OF THIS SONGFIC, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE GO LISTEN TO MARCHIN ON BY ONEREPUBLIC. AWESOME SONG.
Please review and leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you :3
