Jace POV

I instantly felt the sickening feeling of regret after I slammed the door to Luke's house. Another fight with Clary. Great, just what I need. My heart was beating faster now and I felt almost like a lost child. Alone and sad. What I wanted right now was to go back into that house and kiss her, apologize to her like today was my last day on Earth. But I knew I couldn't do that. I could feel the lyrics coming to me as I started to hum and sing along to the tune of my life. The story line was so much like my own it was startling...

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

And I'd give up forever to touch her, I swear by the angel I would. Like the Seelie Queen had said, "Love makes you a liar.". And it has, she was right. I had told Clary that I would just be her brother, but that wasn't what I wanted, not at all. "When everything feels like the movies, you bleed just to know you're alive." My life had become so much like a cheesy Hollywood movie script and that made me angry. The only difference was no matter what, the guy doesn't get the girl in the end.
