Disclaimer: I don't OWN any of the characters so please don't be really mean and sue me. I don't own any of the songs used during this long fanfiction so there ya go, satisfied? (In this case, I don't own Seether or Amy Lee or Broken).

Author's Note: Some of the further chapters are gonna be really really short and will only consist of a song lyrics and maybe a few sentences. The songs are supposed to be from Squall's POV ok? I know it seems a really slack way to complete chapters but it's really all I can do for Squall. Plus every time I enter lyrics at the same time I'll always up date the next chapter as something lengthy, ok?

Key: Italics: The song lyrics and Squall's thoughts (yes Squall spontaneously sings words from songs he relates to, do you know what I mean?)

Chapter 6: Broken

The unruly brown locks shadowed his eyes in the already dim bedroom, it was already late but the commander had no intention in sleeping any time soon…

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh

I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away

I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well

I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away

Still sat at his computer desk, his arms limp laid across the keyboard as he leaned over it, motionless with the words in his head…

Cause I'm broken when I'm open

And I don't feel like I am strong enough

Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome

And I don't feel light when you're gone away

He took a slow shivery breathe, having to remember to take in the oxygen he released the received air with a heavy sigh…

The worst is over now and we can breathe again

I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away

There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight

I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

In the darkness he was lost in this lonely admittance…

Cause I'm broken when I'm open

And I don't feel like I am strong enough

Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome

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

Was it really impossible to reach…?

Cause I'm broken when I'm open

And I don't feel like I am strong enough

Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome

And I don't feel light when you're gone away

He'd find a way somehow…
