Save Yourself
I'm sorry I can't fix myself.
The world keeps pulling me back.
I keep letting you down.
Pieces of me just slip through my grasp.
Fang stumbled in through my window and actually fell on my bed after his foot hit the ledge of the window. I stared at him as he stood up and held the note up, the reason for all of this. My lips trembled and I felt like the crying angel that I was.
It's not your fault
That I mastered the art of lies.
The pain that you see.
I've been hiding for awhile.
Fang stared at her, a beautiful angel that had saved him from the person he feared he was. She pulled him into the light and he had rejected the light. Max held up the proof of his lies in her hand and he flinched as she screamed, "Why couldn't you just tell me Fang?" Everything was either here or never. He would tell her at this moment or lose her.
So save yourself. I'm already gone.
I'm just a loner with no humor.
The broken image that I see.
Is more than just a shattered mirror.
I felt his beating heart as he breathed. I could feel him from so far away. Fang was still the dark angel that had hurt me but loved me. I took a deep breath as he began, "My father's name is Abraham Grey. He was the scientist in charge of me at the School. His method of training was worse than yours Max." I stared at him, wondering what he meant. We had all pretty much gone through the same stuff? Well, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, Angel, and I because Jeb had been in charge of us. What had happened to Fang?
Now fly away as fast as you can.
I'm sure you're hurt cause we're so close.
But I've been called a killer once.
Leave before I cut us both.
Fang held his breath and closed his eyes. "Abraham," he swallowed before starting again, "He would placed me in this pit with Erasers and other mutations. He told me if I didn't kill them than they would kill me. That's why I have those scars. They tried clawing off my wings." In front of him, bright red flashed in his mind. The blood of other victims, he was alive after all wasn't he? "He told me that I was destined to destroy all other mutants and humans. He said I'd be a leader and a king that brought form to the new world."
Well you fail to see me.
And you've gotten complicated.
I'm holding the weapon of choice.
Baby now our love is overrated.
I watched as he shivered and grabbed his arms. When he looked up at me, he seemed surprised and disappointed. Maybe he was expecting disgust to appear on my face. I ran over towards him and he took a step back. He was ashamed. "Fang, you should've told me!" I don't care that he had fought to stay alive. If he hadn't, where would I be now?
It's your fault now
That I'm dying
The pain that you see
Is a fresh new wound.
"Max, Brigid is working with him. They're probably trying to bring Itex back and he says I am the Judas of the flock." He watched as she stepped closer to him. He remained still and pulled his shameful wings tighter against himself. He had never said so much in his entire life but once he started he couldn't stop. For this one moment, Fang had to speak.
So save yourself. I'm already gone.
I'm just a loner with no humor.
The broken image that I see.
Is more than just a shattered mirror.
"No," I reached down to grab his hand, "They're wrong about you." I gave a small smile and watched as his face began to relax. All the words he said had shocked me. That was more than I had ever expected to hear from Fang. "You are the cool, collected, Mr. Emotionless, Fang in this flock. And I'm leader so my say goes."
Now walk away as fast as you can.
I'm sure you're hurt cause we're so close
But I've been called a killer once
Leave before I cut us both.
Max's smile was beautiful to Fang. He felt that he had seen heaven again. She didn't hate him and he wished he had told her from the start. Max knew all there was to know about him except one thing, "I'm sorry I hurt you." Max smacked his arm lightly as if to say, yeah, I'm still mad about that.
You've hurt me
As if this was a test
I'd rather die for you
Then all of the rest
I found my arms wrapping around Fang in the hug that change us back to what we were.
My mistakes
I don't regret
Because as of now
They haven't taken you yet.
Fang shut his eyes knowing they would face this together like it should've been from the start.
Leave before I cut us both…
Stay before I cut us both down…
You stayed and now we're falling…
But then our hearts and wings were found.
