A second page/ you reach a chapter You're on the phone/but no one's there Another thing you can't keep after Another time you're left alone I know/you're the lonliest person I know Just a flag in the wind that wont blow Just a tear rolling down the window You see that I know/you're the lonliest person I know Just a blade in the grass/that won't grow Just a hand holding on to let go You see that I know/you're the lonliest person I know Just a fly living in the back row Just a slap in the face that won’t show"

So let's roll the dice, one more time Take a chance on love again tonight Risk it all, lay it on the line Let the skeletons fight for life Tonight, hold on tight, as we collide The male singer stepped back and let his female counterpart, now take the lead. She belted the words out smoothly, in a soft but throaty voice. Reconnected, feelin' no pain Seeking shelter like a spark in the rain, tonight Worn and weathered, scared to go home We're here together, but still all alone, tonight And there's no need to lie, we've both been abused The love and the pain, the cocaine and booze, now

Do you know how many bullets I wanted to put into every man at that charity ball? -Why would you want to do that? -Because they looked at you in a way only I'm allowed to. But you know what stopped me from doing that? The thought that you're mine and that tonight you'll sleep in my arms, not theirs. The thought that nobody can take you away from me and that only I can touch you.

She sang along to the lyrics displayed on the screen. “Come on over in my direction So thankful for that, it's such a blessin', yeah Turn every situation into Heaven, yeah (Oh, you are...) My sunrise on the darkest day Got me feelin' some kind of way Make me wanna savour every moment slowly, slowly You fit me, tailor-made love, how you put it on Got the only key, know how to turn it on The way you nibble on my ear, the only words I wanna hear Baby take it slow so we can last long

The plaster on my right leg was gone, though my steps were still unsteady. "Leo Ashcroft isn't here, Mr. and Mrs. Ashcroft. My name's August Somerset," I said flatly. "Leo…" Malinda cried out as she reached out toward me. "Please come home with us, will you?" "I am home, and this is my mom," I said and tucked my arm into Joycelyn's. Smiling, I continued, "As for you, we're strangers." Bianca stepped out of the car at last. She couldn't even muster the courage to meet my eyes as she hoarsely said, "I'm sorry, Leo. I know that I've messed up, so will you please give me one more chance?"

At that moment, the very familiar song thirty seven Stitches by Drowning Pool blared through the apartment and I froze in place at the words I knew by heart: “See me sitting here? I'm waiting for you to say something. I kick rocks with my head down. I'm kicking stones on the way down to hell, waiting for you to say something...” I took a jerky breath, tied the laces on my boots and scrambled to my feet. And the moment he started the chorus mine and Ollie's eyes met. They were absorbed under the weight of those words that resonated through the apartment... and maybe even my soul. "I know you're the one. My personal taste of heaven. And you know I'm the only one. Your bitter taste of hell. You

“For you.” Woah... I don’t realize I’m holding my breath until the first note floats into the air. His voice is soft, raw. Each word feels like it was carved from pieces of my past, my pain, and patched together with hope. (Jon's song): "You were the quiet in the storm, the light behind the door The shadow of a girl who always needed more But even when you shattered, you never disappeared You made a home inside your fear. *I found you in the silence, bruised but still alive A spark beneath the ashes, burning to survive You were never lost, you were always mine to find Even in the dark, you still shine."

A little sympathy, I hope you can show me If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly Cold skin, drag my feet on the tile As I'm walking down the corridor And I know we haven't talked in a while So I'm looking for an open door Don't cut me down, throw me out, leave me here to waste I once was a man with dignity and grace Now I'm slippin' through the cracks of your cold embrace So please, please Could you find a way to let me down slowly? A little sympathy, I hope you can show me If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly

“GOLDEN ECHO! GOLDEN ECHO!” Jaxon raised the mic, voice low and smooth. “New York… you with us tonight?” The arena answered with deafening chaos. He gave that slow, dangerous smirk that always sent the crowd wild. The beat crashed in. Jaxon’s Verse: ♪ I was shadow, I was smoke, yeah Lost in the dark, couldn’t find my road (Ah) Crown felt wrong, mirror showed a lie Thought I was king till the silence made me cry Two lives, two faces, split until I broke

Esmeray and Calliyah approached it with reverence, marveling at its beauty. “We did it,” Calliyah exclaimed, her eyes shining with pride. “We found the Moonlight Lily!” As Esmeray and Calliyah made their way to the forest, their excitement was palpable.
