Song used: Swan Song, by Set it Off

Third Person P.O.V

There were definitely too many people here. The ground felt like it was going to crumble underneath Soul's feet. He could even feel the person behind him breathing on his neck... Way too close for comfort.

Concerts were terrible, in Soul's opinion. Yet, here he was, standing in the middle of a sea of screeching, smelly, disgusting people... It must be so much better to be up there on stage. Speaking of which... It should be just about time for Crimson Heart to play the next song. What could be taking them so damn long? Soul thought to himself.

Then, the lead singer of the band, who goes by the alias "Death the Kid" (though his fans call just call him "Kid", since no one knows his real name), finally walks back onstage. Kid walks center stage, to the stand-up mic, followed by his band members. Just as Soul had been told: the keyboardist was missing.

Kid himself was looking very pissed off. "Sorry." He spoke into the mic. "Some idiot spilled coffee on my shirt backstage... I had to change." He huffed. "But I guess you're really not interested in that." He chuckled. " You probably want us to hurry up and start the song. So, here goes nothing."

The lead guitarist, Akira I believe, started playing. Black*Star, the drummer, followed soon after. And then the bass player, Hitasu...


"You don't even bother anymore
You cut to the bone
Pick up the phone
To hear my swan song

I'll admit I'm impressed
By your vanishing act
Place your bets on your best guess
Of when you're coming back

Draw the curtains
Take the stage
Smoke in mirrors underway
Hold your breath here comes the turn
This is where we all got burned

Promises are broken
Tell me are you happy now?
Drowning in the hourglass
I guess our time ran out

You don't even bother anymore
You cut to the bone
Pick up the phone
To hear my swan song
You don't even bother anymore
You left me alone
I'm on my own
Tell me where we went wrong

Should I turn on the floodlights
To shine in your eyes
Just to get you to speak
And explain why you let it die
This new chapter in your life
Read it over once or twice
Burn the pages not the bridge
Sew your wounds without a stitch

Promises are broken
Tell me are you happy now
Drowning in the hourglass
I guess our time ran out

I hope you're listening

You don't even bother anymore
You cut to the bone
Pick up the phone
To hear my swan song
You don't even bother anymore
You left me alone
I'm on my own
Tell me where we went wrong

Tell me where we all went wrong
Tell me where, tell me where

Abandon the people who shaped who you are
Selfish and thoughtless, you drown in the dark
I hope that you realize the damage you've done
You could not see light even staring at the sun

Promises are broken
Tell me are you happy now
Drowning in the hourglass
I guess our time ran out

You don't even bother anymore
You cut to the bone
Pick up the phone
To hear my swan song
You don't even bother anymore
You left me alone
I'm on my own
Tell me where we went wrong
Tell me where we went wrong
Tell me where we went wrong
