I wanted to know, I love the way you laugh

I want to hold you high, and steal your pain away

I keep your photograph, and I know it serves me well

I want to hold you high, and steal your pain.

The girl hated herself. She had always loved him. Not once had she ever stopped. Everyone believed that she felt for him no more, but it wasn't so. She had only given up on it. There wasn't anything else she could do. He was too good for her. Why would he even want to associate with her, was beyond her reasoning. So instead of pursuing him endlessly, like she used to, she gave up trying. She spent her time with other guys. Trying to forget him and not being able to.

'Coz I'm broken, when I'm lonesome

And I don't feel right when you're gone away.

You gotta win, you don't feel me anymore.

It hurt her to do this all the time. To sneak out of the common room and wait for one of the others. She saw him watch her out of the corner of his eye, the look of disdain apparent on his face. She sighed. His face, how it held so many emotions, he was like an open book to her. An open book she was allowed to read but never touch, never take home.

The worst is over now, and we can breathe again

I wanna hold you high, and steal my pain away

There is so much left to learn, and no one left to fight

I wanna hold you high, and steal your pain.

She had him. That nasty jumped up girl had him in her clutches. He never went anywhere with out. Not even to bed. Of course she knew that they didn't do anything, they just fell asleep in each others' arms. Finding comfort and warmth there, and feeling protected. Of course, during the day that traitor joined them. It was always so. The three of them, they never went anywhere with the others.

'Coz Im broken, when I'm open

And I feel like that I'm strong enough

'Coz I'm broken, when I'm lonesome

And I don't feel right when you're gone away.

She was sick of the games she played. The lies she told, the lies she heard- the lie she lived. Rumors that circulated through the school but never reaching their ears. Everybody knew what she did, everyone but them. She earned a pretty knut for it, it was the only reason she continued. But she would give it all up for him.

A/N- !!!! I updated!! That is all. Good-bye.
