Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm

Harry walked along the lakeshores of a now old Hogwarts. He was 23 years old and was back at Hogwarts. He didn't know what had brought him there. All he had was gone now, everything he had, everything he could have had was gone. His friends…them as close as family…all gone. Including one of the only people he had loved. Ginny Weasley. The red headed beauty who had stayed with him through everything, the person who had believed in him since he started this war. The red head was the source of his inspiration. The reason that he stayed and fought. He wanted to start a life with Ginny. He wanted to be her husband. But it had all ended when she died. He had seen her die.

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

Harry didn't know why he felt her death so deeply. Of course he had experienced so much pain, but this was so much harder. So much pain. But hers stabbed through his heart. He suddenly realized why he felt her death so painfully.

She had been his first love, she had been his first of a lot of things. She was a part of him. And without her, life seemed so drab, the colors painted in black and white, with the occasional gray.

I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you're trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on her word

She had left him, telling him that she loved him and that he couldn't give up. That her death was nothing in the grand scheme of things. What a lie. She was everything, she was nothing. She was there, she warmed everyone, she was the one who was the anchor. She held the group together, she held them tight and never let them go. It wasn't enough and now everything was lost. Including Harry.

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

Harry sat at the edge of the lake. It would be so easy to die, to go with her, to be with her forever. But could he do it? Could he take the plunge? Her words echoed in his head. He couldn't give up. She was nothing, her death was insignificant. He had to keep fighting.

And she's taller than most
And she's looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from a page in a magazine
Oh she makes me feel like I could be a tower
A big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see

He smiled fondly about how she used to joke that in heels, she could grow to be taller than him. How he had commented she'd need really high heels. She was gorgeous. She could've been a model. But she stuck with him. She had given him something. A hope. A vision. A life.

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

Harry stood up. This was what he wanted to be, he wanted to be her hero. That's why he wouldn't be leaving this world so soon. She'd wait, he knew it.
