Lyrics are from Ryan Cabrera's On the Way Down. As always, it seems, I didn't spend a whole lot of time on this. There may still be mistakes, and I'm not sure I like it, so I might edit it later on. Lemme know what you think.
Holding On
Sick and Tired of this world
There's no more air
Trippin' over myself
Goin' nowhere
Waiting
Suffocating
No direction
And I took a dive
And on the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
Almost fell right through
But I held onto you
The rain continued to pour, but Martin kept walking. Suddenly, he heard someone walk up beside him. He glanced up to see who it was. He was shocked to see Sam standing next to him, soaked, looking at him with concerned eyes. She put a hand on his arm to stop him. He stared at her. What on earth was she doing out in the rain?
"You okay?" she asked softly. He shrugged. She gave him a small smile. "You don't look okay. Why are you out here in the rain?"
Martin looked away. He couldn't handle staring into her eyes, pleading him to open up to her. Telling her would just make it worse. Turned out he didn't have to tell her.
"It's Bonnie, isn't it," she said gently.
I've been wondering why
It's only me
Have you always been inside
Waiting to breathe
It's alright
Sunlight
On my face
I wake up and yeah, I'm alive
'cause on the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
Almost fell right through
But I held onto you
Martin could feel tears welling up as she said her name. He turned away from her to hide them, but she stopped him with her hand. For a long while, they just stared into each other's eyes. It felt like time had stopped. Eventually, Sam gathered all her courage and slowly inched closer to him. Their lips met for a brief second before she pulled away to look at him.
When her lips touched his, Martin felt a shock run through his body. He stared at her, shocked, then looked down at his shoes. It was as though he had just woken up from a deep sleep. He tried to blink back the tears, but soon gave up. His face was wet from the rain, so he hoped it wasn't noticeable. The last thing he wanted to do was break down in the middle of the street, right in front of her. He looked up to see her understanding eyes watching him. He suddenly shivered. He was completely drenched, and the wind was starting to pick up. Sam noticed, and gently took his hand. She squeezed it, then gently tugged on it, leading him inside.
I was so afraid
Of going under
But now
The weight of the world
Feels like nothing, no, nothing
Down, down, down
You're all I wanted
Down, down, down
You're all I needed
Down, down, down
You're all I wanted
You're all I needed
And I won't forget the way you loved me
All that I wanted
All that I needed
On the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
I almost fell right through
But I held onto you
Down, down, down
But I held onto you
Down, down, down
But I held onto you
