Cause there's a time, there's a place
And I'm always gonna hear your name
There's a right, there's a wrong
And now I see that all along
I messed up, you'll be fine
I'm gonna be alone tonight
Never gonna be the same, cause your half the world away

A story you'd heard
Now you rest everything on those three words
Now I walk to you til my feet hurt
So tell me that's not good enough

And I started drinking
I don't know half of what I'm thinking
I'm deep in, I'm scared I'll stop breathing
We've started to loose who we are

Cause there's a time, there's a place
And I'm always gonna hear your name
There's a right, there's a wrong
And now I see that all along
I messed up, you'll be fine
I'm gonna be alone tonight
Never gonna be the same

I want you around, round, round
Are we going down, down, down?
I want you around, round, round
Are we going down, down, down?
I want you around, round, round
Are we going down, down, down?
Are we going down? (Down, down)

Cause there's a time, there's a place
And I'm gonna hear your name
There's a right, there's a wrong
And now I see that all along
We messed up, we'll be fine
We're gonna be alone tonight
Never gonna be the same
(Cause we're half the world away)

Cause there's a time, there's a place
And I'm always gonna hear your name
There's a right, there's a wrong
And now I see that all along
I messed up, you'll be fine
I'm gonna be alone tonight
Never gonna be the same, cause your half the world away

Augusta was starting to tear up. All of the songs had double meaning, but only Dorothea's close friends knew the real meaning.

__30 minutes later__
The concert had gone wonderfully and it was really fun for them. Este had come up and amazed everyone.

Dorothea finished her song and the music stopped.

"I have one last song for you all tonight, but before that I want to say thank you. Thank you for supporting me and thank you for coming here tonight. This has been a dream of mine since I was little and I am so glad I get to live it. Many people are stuck not living their best life, even for one day. But you guys, the fans, have been letting me do this for 4 years. Even when I was just starting out and released my EP you were there to support me.  Even when I was just doing a small concert at the park you came and helped me. And so for that I thank you.

"This last song is a cover of a amazing song. It is quite old but a amazing song. Here is I Lived!"

Augusta was full on sobbing. She couldn't believe this was almost over. She looked over at everyone else and smiled slightly through her tears. She knew Dorothea had lived her best life and it was ok that she was going to be gone. Dorothea accepted it and so everyone else had too.

Dorothea waved to them and then started the song.

Hope when you take that jump
You don't fear the fall
Hope when the water rises
You built a wall
Hope when the crowd screams out
It's screaming your name
Hope if everybody runs
You choose to stay

Dorothea pointed at them and waved them up to the stage. Augusta smiled and walked up with everyone else. They grabbed Dorothea's hand and smiled at her

Hope that you fall in love
And it hurts so bad
The only way you can know
You give it all you have
And I hope that you don't suffer
But take the pain
Hope when the moment comes you'll say

I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived

Hope that you spend your days
But they all add up
And when that sun goes down
Hope you raise your cup
Oh, oh
I wish that I could witness
All your joy
And all your pain
But until my moment comes, I'll say

I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived

Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh
(With every broken bone)
I swear I lived
(With every broken bone)
I swear I

I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah with every broken bone
I swear I lived

Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
I swear I lived
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh

A/N
And so this is the end! It is kinda a open ending, so you can desire what happens to the characters! Thank you for reading the whole story and sticking with me even when it doesn't make sense lol!

FYI the song lyrics are not mine. The lyrics are for a song called I Lived

Also I just want to say that if you get a bunch of notifications saying I updated this story, that is because I am going to fix spelling and grammar and stuff bc I didn't do it when I was writing!
