Disclaimer: I don't own anyone. All characters belong to J.K. Rowling etc, and I promise to put them back when I'm done.
The song, 'Goodbye', is by Natalie Imbruglia, and I suggest you all go out right away and buy 'White Lilies Island', cause it ROX muchly. All lyrics are in italics. It should be pretty obvious who this is to/from. As always, feedback is welcome!
Every day's the same,
I feel them merge
What happened to us?
I try to separate,
Resist the urge
One day we're all here, we were happy, we were safe. Then you were gone. And I never thought you'd come back.
But they tell me I'll be fine
That it will all get better
I couldn't breath for the longest time. Sometimes it feels like I still can't. I don't know how everyone expected me to carry on living without you.
Just try to write it down
Or put it in a letter
How could you do that, Sirius? How could you do that to Lily and James? How could you do that to Peter? What did we do to you that was so bad that you needed to kill us?
But the words won't play
And there's no easy way to say
You didn't kill me though, did you? You knew what was worse than death. You always knew. That was the problem, you see, you knew us too well.
Keep my head on straight
And don't look down.
Being alive on those nights was always worse than death. The wolf knew something was wrong, the first moon afterwards. It knew that Padfoot was missing. Did you think about me, on that first night? No...I don't suppose you did. I thought about you. I was all I could do, for a while.
With all I've pushed away
I'm losing ground
It got better of course. I suppose it always does. Seeing Harry for the first time afterwards was...it was incredible, it was heartbreaking, it was murder. He looks so much like James, you know. Apart from the eyes. He has Lily's eyes.
But they tell me I'll be fine
That it will all get better
Listen to me. Even after 13 years, I still have to remind myself; you're a killer. It may not have been your hand, your wand, your voice, but you killed them. You killed Peter, you killed Lily and James, and in your own, Sirius-esque way, you killed me.
Just try to write it down
Or put it in a letter
I need to let it go, I know that. I know you never loved me in quite the same way I loved you, but I...I always dreamed. I need to stop dreaming now.
But the words won't play
And there's no easy way to say
So this is my saying goodbye, Sirius. Goodbye to you, to the marauders, to the pain, goodbye to it all.
And from the sidelines
Watch me fall down
Goodbye.
And I don't understand the things I do
But Ill probably be fine
As long as I keep moving
I'll try to write it down
So things just keep improving
Still the words wont play
Cause there's no easy way to say
Goodbye.
