"Get on that stage, Bells!" My manager, Jeff, said slapping a hand on my back.
"I'm so nervous, Jeff!" I whisper yelled at him.
"It'll be fine, kid! Just get out there and sing your heart out.
I sighed, "Thanks, Jeff." I walked out on to the stage, and the crowd went wild.
I smiled at them, "Hey, guys! What song should I sing first?" I shouted out to the crowd.
They all screamed, "SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE!!!" I smiled at them, hiding the feelings inside.
"Then Since You've Been Gone it is!!" I shouted to them.
Edward POV
I can't believe Alice was dragging me to a concert. She wouldn't let me know which one it is or who was the artist.
"Alice, quit singing that! Please!?" I pleaded. But she kept singing 'I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves' in her head. It was driving me crazy.
When we arrived, she led me inside too fast for me to see the sign in the front. We sat down, and after a few minutes, someone all too familiar walked out onto the stage.
"Hey, guys!" She shouted out, her beautiful familiar voice was killing me inside, "What song should I sing first?"
Everybody screamed "SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE!!!!" She smiled, but there was a hidden emotion behind her eyes.
"Then Since You've Been Gone it is!!" She shouted.
Then the band started to play. I didn't even notice how different she looked until the light shone on her.
She looked too different. Too different. Too pale. Inhumanly beautiful. Then it dawned on me.
She was a vampire.
"Here's the thing we started off friends It was cool but it was all pretend Yeah yeah Since you've been gone" Ihad a feeling this song was about us leaving. No one else that I knew of had left her.
"You dedicated you took the time Wasn't long till I called you mine Yeah Yeah Since you've been gone
"And all you'd ever hear me say Is how I pictured me with you That's all you'd ever hear me say
"But since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time I'm so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you Now I get What I want Since you've been gone" This song showed all her anger towards me.
"How can I put it? you put me on I even fell for that stupid love song" That hurt. I thought she loved my lullaby.
"Yeah yeah Since you've been gone
"How come I never hear you say I just wanna be with you I guess you never felt that way" At least that's what I'd told her.
"But since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time I'm so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you Now I get I get what I want Since you've been gone" She really had a beautiful voice.
"You had your chance you blew it Out of sight, out of mind Shut your mouth I just can't take it Again and again and again and again
Since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time I'm so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get I get what I want I can breathe for the first time I'm so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (I get)
You should know (you should know)
That I get I get what I want Since you've been gone Since you've been gone Since you've been gone" She finished the song, and I felt horrible. How could I do this to her!? I had Rena now though, so I couldn't go back to her.
"Okay, guys. This is called You Won't Find This." I didn't think this was going to be a happy song either.
Bella POV
"Did you check the tires Put gas in the car Don't think you need too much Cause you ain't gonna get that far Did you pack the good times Don't forget a map Just in case the route you take isn't there to take you back" I felt a tear stream down my cheek.
"You can hold any girl that you like" It wasn't fair, he was mine first.
"Fall in love when it's easy at night But you'll wake up wondering why She ain't ever something better When you're lost and you've run out of road Find what I already know In the end close is all there is But you won't find this No, you won't find this" He probably doesn't care. He's probably happy right now.
"There's once in a lifetime And there's once in a while And the difference between the two is about a million miles Oh, you might get lucky while the moon is looking up But in the truth of the morning, the stars will be long gone"
"You can hold girl that you like Fall in love when it's easy at night But you'll wake up wondering why She ain't ever something better When you're lost and you've run out of road Find what I already know In the end close is all there is But you won't find this" I missed him so bad. I needed him like air.
"You can hold any girl that you like Fall in love when it's easy at night But you'll wake up wondering why She ain't ever something better When you're lost and you've run out of road Find what I already know In the end close is all there is Oh, in the end it's me you're gonna miss Cause you won't find this No, you won't find this" My face was drenched with tears, but I didn't care. "This is called Burned."
"What's wrong with me?
I get lonely in a crowd Everyone is smiling But I made myself left out" I'm too hurt to be in. I'll hurt everybody else.
"I got an imaginary shield around me But nobody's ever really getting through I keep thinking that they're gonna break me free But they never do (no)" I never let them.
"When somebody's knockin'When123" value"knocking, knockings, knockdown, knacking" / somebody wants me When somebody's trying to love me completely' I get scared Don't know how it works Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?
Don't wanna get burned" Ironic, huh? The only way I can die is to be burned to ash.
"Is there thickness in the air?
Or are you heavy on my heart?
Why can't I just fit in?
Why can' I do what everyone else does?
People come around like a storm When you least expect them to For me, I run for cover When I should really face the truth
[Repeat Chorus
What's wrong with me?
I get lonely in a crowd Everyone is smiling But I made myself left out
When somebody's knockin' When somebody wants me When somebody's trying to love me completely I get scared Don't know how it works Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?
When somebody's knockin' When somebody wants me When somebody's trying to love me completely I get scared Don't know how it works Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?
I get scared (I get scared)
Don't know how it works (Don't know how it works)
Will somebody save me? (Will somebody save me)
Or will I get burned? (Or will I get burned?)
I get scared (I get scared)
Don't know how it works (Don't know how it works)
Will somebody save me? (Will somebody save me)
Or will I get burned? (Or will I get burned?)
I get scared (I get scared)
Don't know how it works (Don't know how it works)
Will somebody save me? (Will somebody save me)
Or will I get burned?" I looked down into the crowd. I had an idea, "This next song is dedicated to an old friend, Alice." I looked around, and there she was! My expression turned in to a grin. "This is called True Friend!" I smiled at her, she was beaming.
"We sign our cards in letters BFF You've got a million ways to make me laugh You're lookin' out for me; you've got my back It's so good to have you around
You know the secrets I could never tell And when I'm quiet you break through my shell Don't feel the need to do a rep for you Cause you keep my feet on the ground
You're a true friend You're here till the end You pull me aside When something ain't right Talk to me now and into the night 'Til it's alright again You're a true friend
You don't get angry when I change the plans Somehow you're never out of second chances Won't say "I told you" when I'm wrong again I'm so lucky that I've found
A true friend You're here till the end You pull me aside
When something ain't right Talk to me now and into the night 'Til it's alright again
true friends will go to the ends of the earth Till they find the things you need Friends hang on through the ups and the downs Cause they've got someone to believe in
A true friend You're here till the end You pull me aside When something ain't right Talk to me now and into the night No need to pretend Oh, You're a true friend You're here till the end You pull me aside When something ain't right Talk to me now and into the night 'Til it's alright again You're a true friend You're a true friend You're a true friend" I finished, then I realized something. If Alice was here, then maybe someone else was too. Someone I don't like to think about. "Okay, guys! This song is dedicated to someone really important to me, that left me awhile back. It's my favorite song of all these. It reminds me of life before he left." A tear streamed down my face. I turned to the piano player, and whispered the song in his ear. He nodded, and started to play.
I found him in the crowd, next to Alice. I watched him as I sung this song. "Waking up I see that everything is OK The first time in my life and now it's so great! Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed I think about the little things that make life great I wouldn't change a thing about it This is the best feeling" It was. I missed him so bad. I needed him.
"This innocence is brilliance, I hope that it will stay This moment is perfect, please don't go away, I need you now And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by" He never felt it back. I just wanted to pretend right now.
"I found a place so safe, not a single tear" Not until now.
"The first time in my life and now it's so clear Feel calm I belong, I'm so happy here It's so strong and now I let myself be sincere I wouldn't change a thing about it This is the best feeling" He was watching me intently. Tears were streaming down my face.
"This innocence is brilliance, I hope that it will stay This moment is perfect, please don't go away, I need you now And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
"It's the state of bliss you think you're dreaming It's the happiness inside that you're feeling It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
"It's the state of bliss you think you're dreaming It's the happiness inside that you're feeling It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
"It's so beautiful it makes you want to cry
"This innocence is brilliance, it makes you want to cry This innocence is brilliance, please don't go away 'Cause I need you now And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
This innocence is brilliance, I hope that it will stay This moment is perfect, please don't go away, I need you now And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by" The song ended, and I wiped the tears from my face. "Okay, this is called Slipped Away."
"Na na, na na na, na na I miss you, miss you so bad I don't forget you, oh it's so sad I hope you can hear me I remember it clearly" I looked deep into his eyes, letting all of the pain show. I would let him know how much he'd hurt my existence.
"The day you slipped away Was the day I found it won't be the same Ooooh
"Na na na na na na na
"I didn't get around to kiss you Goodbye on the hand I wish that I could see you again I know that I can't" I cringed.
"Oooooh I hope you can hear me cause I remember it clearly
"The day you slipped away Was the day I found it won't be the same Ooooh
"I had my wake up Won't you wake up I keep asking why And I can't take it It wasn't fake It happened, you passed by
"Now your gone, now your gone There you go, there you go Somewhere I can't bring you back Now your gone, now your gone There you go, there you go,
Somewhere your not coming back
"The day you slipped away Was the day I found it won't be the same noo.
The day you slipped away Was the day I found it won't be the same oooh...
"Nah nah, nah nah nah, nah nah I miss you" I ran off the stage as soon as it was over.
"Are you okay, Bella?" Serena asked.
"I saw HIM out there." My voice broke at 'HIM', and that was all she needed to hear. She rolled up her sleeves, looking behind me. I furrowed my eyebrow in confusion. That's when I smelt it. It was HIM.
