Chapter 1
I sat in the café like I did every evening and waited for her to come on stage to perform. It wasn't a long wait. Ten minutes after I arrived she was sitting on the little stage in the café, her guitar in hand and a microphone in front of her. I was surprised to see a drum kit and a drummer on stage as well; I didn't think that the stage was big enough to hold both of them. She smiled at the crowd after she'd tuned her guitar. I could see some people at the front staring at her with love and adoration. They were regulars, like me, who came just to listen to her.
"Hi everyone," she spoke softly into the microphone. I knew she was shy, so I didn't understand how she did this all the time. "Glad to see you all again, I hope you enjoyed your day. I got a few songs I want to play for you, I hope you like them." Everyone was silent, waiting for her to start.
I cannot find a way to describe it
It's there inside
All I do is hide
I wish that it would just go away
What would you do
You do if you knew
What would you do?
All the pain
I thought I knew
All the thoughts lead back to you
Back to what
Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion
I'm unable come and take me away
I feel like I'm all alone
All by myself I need to get around this
My words are cold
I don't want them to hurt you
If I show you
I don't think you'd understand
'Cause no one understands
All the pain
I thought I knew
All the thoughts lead back to you
Back to what
Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion
I'm unable come and take me away
I'm going nowhere on and on and
I'm getting nowhere on and on and on (take me away)
I'm going nowhere on and on and off and on and off and on
All the pain
I thought I knew
All the thoughts lead back to you
Back to what
Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion
I'm unable come and take me away
Take me away
Break me away
Take me away
She opened her eyes and smiled as everyone clapped for her. It was a little unusual; you'd think it was more of a rock song than an acoustic song.
"That was called Take Me Away, and this one is called Nobody's Home." She strummed the guitar strings a little before closing her eyes and beginning to play.
Well, I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way? She felt it everyday
And I couldn't help her
I just watched her make the same mistakes again
What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs?
She wants to go home but nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside with no place to go
No place to go to dry her eyes
Broken inside
Open your eyes
And look outside find the reasons why
You've been rejected
And now you can't find what you've left behind
Be strong, be strong now
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs?
She wants to go home but nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside with no place to go
No place to go to dry her eyes
Broken inside
Her feelings she hides, her dreams she can't find
She's losing her mind, she's fallen behind
And she can't find her place, she's losing her faith
She's fallen from grace, she's all over the place, yeah
She wants to go home but nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside with no place to go
No place to go to dry her eyes
Broken inside
She's lost inside, lost inside
Oh, oh
She's lost inside, lost inside
Oh, oh
The night continued on in the same fashion. She'd sing and play and we'd all listen intently. Very few whispers could be heard. Everyone applauded her as she left the stage to start her work. I finished my coffee and headed back to my apartment.
I looked around my apartment when I shut the door. It was so dark, so lifeless. There were no happy memories here. I rarely had my friends and family over. I rarely went out and if I did, it was once every few months, excluding birthdays and Christmas. I sighed and headed to my room where I collapsed onto my bed and fell into a peaceful sleep.
A/N: Those two songs were Take Me Away and Nobody's Home by Avril Lavigne.
