(Galleria's POV)
I'm standing here packing to go home. My heart is broken and all I really want is just to be alone in my bedroom in New York to think and write. I can feel the music swelling within me, even as I lay clothes into my suitcase. Music is my outlet, it always has been. So when I feel the music trying to get out, I let it. I begin singing, just words that are running through my head.
Four voices, perfectly blending
Right from the start Make that two voices. It's been me and Chuchi ever since I can remember.
Ooh, I'm afraid that's ending
And my world is falling apart What if we can't fix this? What if I've really lost my best friend?
It's over and I feel so alone
This is a sadness I've never known This feels even worse than that fight we had freshman year.
How did I let the sweetest of dreams slip away
and I'm afraid the hurt is here to stay I'm probably never going to know what could have happened between us if I'd told her how I feel.
(Chanel's POV)
My heart feels so heavy and I have absolutely no idea what to do about it. I pushed my best friend away, I haven't been there for her, and I yelled at her for trying to help me. I hurt her so badly, I don't know if I can ever make things right again. I want to try—I want to go to her now, but my mom won't let me. I've got to at least blow off some steam, so I'll go sing outside for a while.
Promises made not meant to be broken
From a long time ago I promised her we'd always be best friends. I thought nothing could ever change that.
Ooh, so many words still unspoken
Tell me how was I to know If only I had really faced my crush on Galleria earlier, maybe I wouldn't have pushed her away. If I just would have said something…
It's over, never thought it would be
Why in the world did this happen to me
How could I let the sweetest of dreams slip away
And I'm afraid the hurt is here to stay I think I've ruined things for good. I never got to tell her how I really feel.
(Both POVs)
I go round and round and round in my head
Wanting to take back whatever I said C: I was so mean, I could see how much I hurt her.
No one was right
We all made mistakes G: I should have talked to her sooner, instead of blowing up at her.
I'm ready to do whatever it takes C: If I can just talk to her, tell her how I really feel.
Please
Don't let it be over G: This can't be it for us!
No this is not how it ends
I need my sisters my family my friends C:Bubbles is my everything, I need her in my life!
Don't wanna let the sweetest of dreams slip away
'cause if it's over
then the hurt is here to stay
don't let it be over
please C: Don't let it be over.
don't let it be over
please G: Don't let it be over.
don't let it be over
