There's a woman crying out tonight
Her world has changed
She asked God why
Her only son has died
And now her daughter cries
She can't sleep at night
Downtown another day for all the suits and ties
Another war to fight
There's no regard for life
How do they sleep at night
How can we make things right
Just wanna make this right

We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe in this love

We are all the same
Human in all our ways and all our pain
So let it be
There's a love that could fall down like rain
Let us see
Let forgiveness wash away the pain
What we need
And no one really knows what they are searching for
We believe
This world is crying for so much more

We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe in this love
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe in this love

His emerald eyes stared out the window to the ebony sky above and all the stars it possessed; desperately trying to find which ones belonged to his family…his friends. Memories of death polluted his mind and were moldering his sanity. Flashes of his friends' deaths replayed like a film reel stuck on 'repeat' in his head. How could one rid oneself from such horrid remembrances? The brunette buried his face into his arms and cried. That's all he had really been doing as of late; looking at the heavens trying to find his loved ones and mourning when he couldn't succeed.

Draco's heart was breaking seeing his love in such a condition. He too had lost friends, but his friends were never as true or loyal or good as Harry's. Sometimes he envied Harry for that fact. The death of Hermione and Ron had hit him hard, and it killed Draco to know that there was no way to make Harry feel better. He had once walked in on Harry about to commit suicide by performing the Killing Curse on himself, but stopped him and told him that he'd soon have more to live for. Out in the muggle world, no one knew what had happened. No one knew of the War of the Dark and Light times. Out in the muggle world, all was serene. How Harry wished he were still just that ignorant little boy that knew nothing of the wizarding world and its issues. How Harry wished that so much death and destruction never happened in his life.

It was rare that Harry was happy these days. The only time that seemed so, was when he and Draco were alone, telling each other how much they loved each other. How they would go to the end of the Earth and jump off for each other. This love that Draco gave was the only thing that drove Harry to fight through these times. What they were to do with their lives now that mostly everything was destroyed was undetermined. The Ministry of Magic offices was ambushed by Death Eaters and was now a smoldering pile of ashes. Hogwarts was nothing but a mound of rubble. Few remained and many were gone. The Weasleys, Draco's family, the Goyles, the Crabbes, the Patils, everyone…were gone. Some Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws pulled through, but no one to the acquaintance of Harry's or Draco's. McGonagall and Dumbledore were gone as well. Hagrid was severely wounded and in St. Mungo's highest level of care. Grawp was dead, the centaurs too.

Everyone was crying for one person or another.

So this world is too much for you to take
Just lay it down and follow me
I'll be everything you need
In every way

Draco walked up behind Harry and slinked his arms around his shoulders. Leaning down he whispered the three words that were ever worth hearing these days; "I love you." A tear rolled down Harry's cheek. The fight was over and he had triumphed. He had nothing but a true and deep love to incite him. He knew that this was for the best of things. At least he was he that was doing the suffering instead of his beloved. Together, he and Draco would pull through and start again.
