I'm back, back in town

And everything has changed

I feel, feel let down

The faces stay the same

I see, see shadows

Of who we used to be

When I drive, drive so slow

Through this memory

I don't know when I first started to notice, but when I did it was too late, he was already like this.

When we were only kids

And we were best of friends

And we hoped for the best

And let go of the rest

I saw the little pushes; I thought he was being playful, until I started to truly see.

The first time I saw the bruises I saw red, I went after that sob, and decked him one, right into a puddle in the street, he didn't even flinch just told me to hit harder, it wouldn't make any difference.

I watched it get worse, I called Aurors but they never came after all who would do anything to stop the boy who lived to save their collective asses?

I heard, heard myself

Say things I'd take back

If I could, could retell

And make these stories last

I see, see shadows

Of who we'll always be

I drive, drive these roads

That made our memories

Sometimes I wish that Sirius and Remus were still alive, to knock some sense into them, but their gone, only Snape and Dumbledore are left, yeah the other teachers survived but those two... well it would have been better if they had survived as well.

The children came through my Floo in the middle of the night, they said that if daddy went crazy again to come here, I asked who told them that they said daddy told us to do this, I worried for Ginny, she didn't come until the morning sporting more wounds, and a weary look in her eyes. I begged her not to go back she does, taking the kids back with her.

I was at work when I got the call that Ginny had left him from Hermione, I welcome them to my home, its night but I can hear her weeping and talking to Hermione, I go to the kids, and give what comfort I can.

I'm not sure what I was doing when I heard the news...the news that harry had taken that potion, asleep but not really, alive but dead... I just looked forward and forgot the world.

When we were only kids

And we were best of friends

And we hoped for the best

And let go of the rest

Shadows and regrets

We let go of the rest

I went to see him, he was so still like he was dead, instead of just asleep, Hermione is by me weeping again...I take his hand and wonder why.

I was at home holding little lily when I get the news that Harry's dead, I just hold the little one closer and wonder if maybe I should have been the one to do it...

Everything has changed

The Faces stay the same

Everything has changed

The Faces stay the same

The funeral is nice, pretty even, but it's also ugly, filled with hypocrites, and liars, condescending well wisher who only want a piece of the pie. Their fixes... damn drug dealers.

I visit his grave yearly on his birthday...a cold wind blows bring the scent of lilies drenched in blood, that's what he always smelt like to me...I say my goodbyes and speak about the year again.

I weep...

I weep for what was lost...

I weep...

When We were only kids

And our time couldn't end

And how tall did we stand

With the world in our hands

And we were only kids

And we were best of friends

And we hoped for the best

And let go of the rest

The shadows and regrets

We let go of the rest

The Shadows and Regrets

We let go of the rest
