Savannah was on the roof, legs dangling precariously over the edge. People far below scurried, and while she looked down, she saw nothing. Just darkness. She reached up mechanically, and put her headphones on. Music blasted through her skull, and scattered the darkness.
What if she jumped?
Who would miss her?
I'll stop the whole world,
I'll stop the whole world,
from turning into a monster,
and eating us alive.
Don't you ever wonder how we'd survive?
Well now that you're gone, the world is ours.
I'm only human,
I've got a skeleton in me,
I'm not the villain,
despite what you're always preaching
they call me a traitor,
I'm just collecting your victims.
They're getting stronger,
and I hear them calling.
What a depressingly beautiful song. She knew she should be listening to stuff like Balamory, but she just couldn't.
This life, she couldn't cope anymore, and she wanted out. Thanos was messing with her head, but it was too much. Savannah got up, and leaned as far over the edge as she dared, holding the safety rail for support, and wondered how hard it would be to let go.
To just let go. It was too hard. She was only human, and so fragile, and Thanos had broken her. Truly broken her. God, listening to Paramore was seriously depressing. She loved life too much to let go, but she wanted to be free.
Free of what? she asked herself.
But Savannah honestly didn't know.
