     “So we’ve heard you sing on tape, but will you sing to us in person?” Niall asks. I nod. “What song?” I ask. “Do an original Micks… I mean Mickey.” Zayn corrects himself. “Um, I guess.” I answer.

   My heart use to beat, just for you and me

Now you’re gone, guess that’s how my life works out

Still can’t imagine why you left me

But I’m still hoping that I’ll find out

I don’t think I said anything wrong

I don’t think I did something bad

What did I do? What have I done?

Is it the way I talk? Is it the way I speak?

Is it the way that I’m so weak?

Am I not good enough?

Please Baby, tell me

I don’t think it’s my eyes

Maybe my hair

Let me find out what has torn us apart

I don’t think I said anything wrong

 I don’t think I did something bad

What did I do? What have I done?

Please talk to me, Baby

Why’d you leave me?

Was I not good enough?

My heart use to beat, for you and me

I laugh and glance at Zayn. He’s facing the window but I can see in his reflection that he’s trying not to cry. We pull up to Nando’s and I step out of the car, waiting for everyone else.
