The First Note: Chapter One
The last of the thrumming beats echo out into the stadium hall to which is answered heartily by our human fans. The screaming and cheering goes on for at least another 5 minutes by the way I could tell, but for all I know, we could have been standing there for centuries, listening to them. If there was ever a moment that we could have summoned an army of adsolents to our bidding, now was that time.
Melody's smiling more than I've ever seen, a red flush shining on her clear skin and life shining bright in her eyes. The red and white lights illuminating us sparkle off our chains and peircings. The crowd rumbles below us like a sea of h
I think that maybe, hopefully,
most of our lives
we are falling
and for a brief few moments
we land
when we find
something to live for,
and landing feels so different,
It feels like floating.
And landing becomes
a dream,
a passion,
because we all land
differently.
We search all our lives
To land again,
And most of us
never land.
Only the wise
Learn to fly
And only the blessed
are eternally happy
because they caught their dream
and they soared with it.
Do you even remember what we used to be? The galaxies we had ran from, for fear that we wouldn't be the same. The cosmoses we hid from to keep us the same. The stupid illusions that all would be okay if we stayed apart from the real world and live our lives in denial together?
Only the sun saved me from endless exclusion, only an unstable ball of gas held together by who knows what. That universe of yours was killing me, stifling me like that black, airless void out there that no one really knows about. Only I was there to keep you company in your kingdom of emptiness.
The sun broke through your gravity and dragged me from that dy
It was a rough kind of town, but he was a rough kind of man. Each knew the other was dangerous, the only difference was that the man wasn't afraid to die.
The shifty characters traversing the filthy road kept far to the other side of the way. They knew a soldier, a warrior, when they saw one. They also knew the shape of guns and knives poking shapes in his clothes. But he didn't need weapons to look intimidating. He knew what fear looked like well. He had seen it in everyone's eyes.
Except that one girl.
There must have been something wrong with her. But deep
I'm standing right here, arms open, wanting you to just take your shot and leave. Go on, you always play with my insecurities, anyway, what harm will a few other jabs my way have? Everytime I see you, you get this urge to torture me. After a while of it, I didn't care. You would say anything to make me squirm. Anything that I can tie directly back to your own self. Just look down, why don't you? You are practically insulting yourself.
I'm listening. Come on, you know you can't throw anymore at me anyway. You've used all your cards and isolated yourself and me in this private world where you can rip into me all you want and no one sees.
When your room
Feels like a tomb
And every breath
Feels like your death
When a scream
Feels like a dream
Just run away
Into the grey
And give a shout
To have no doubt
Because when the chance
Will come to dance
Why would you wait?
I've seen the sky turn black.
I've seen a grown man cry.
I've seen my fate change.
I've felt the winds of time.
I've danced in the dark.
Where no one would care.
The thing I haven't seen?
Someone ask themselves if they would dare.
When people are sad enough to commit suicide, I want you to ask them one question. One question is all it will take to know how serious they are. They might lie to hide the truth or won't admit the truth to themselves. But it will stop them and make them think. Even the most hopeless person in the world will want to go back a the last moment, and sometimes it's too late. Give them that chance.
Do you really think that we could live without you here?
Those people who are quiet in class; why don't you go talk to them? It might be the thing they need. Who knows what you could stop.
Are you okay?
If everyone just let themselves ca
If I could only stand here forever with you
On this pedestal to the stars
And to look down at night
At all those shiny cars
If I could lift you
Away from this place
And rise up to heaven
Straight up through space
Would you then look
To see all there is
And look at other lives
Not just limited to his?
