I dreamed I was missing
(from your arms)
You were so scared
(and that broke my heart)
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared
(but I always did)
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here?
(is it you)
So if you're asking me
I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
(and forgive me)
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
(so you'll never forget me)
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
(I'm there)
Keep me in your memory
(just the good ones)
Leave out all the rest.
Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
(and I've done my time)
I've shared what I made
(with you)
I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
(I could break so easily)
I've never been perfect
(and never will)
But neither have you
Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
(and I can't do that)
Pretending
(believing)
Someone else can come and save me from myself
(you?)
I can't be who you are.
(I'm not that strong)

This songfic relates to Namine and Sora in Castle Oblivion, and can be told from either POV. Personally, I think towards the end it sounds more like Namine, and the beginning is more like Sora, but it could work both ways. Whichever floats your boat.
