I didn't expect this

Hoofdstuk 16 ~Ashton

Alexa ligt te slapen op mijn schoot. Ze heeft het zo moeilijk gehad. Ze is zo lief en stoer maar van binnen is ze gekwetst.

Ik pak haar op en leg haar voorzichtig in het bed. Ik zie verschillende papieren op de grond gesmeten. Ik pak ze op en ga ermee naar mijn kamer.

Zou ik ze wel mogen lezen? Is dat geen schendig van de privacy. Mijn nieuwsgierigheid wint het en ik begin te lezen. Super, mooie, perfect uitgewerkte liedjes. Waarom heeft ze die weg gesmeten? Ze is zo getalenteerd.

(Het zijn liedjes van 5SOS, dat jullie het maar weten ;) )

Started out like in the movies
But it ended like a bad dream
Curtain opened, heard the crowd roar
This one's a repeat, seen it before
Rewind to the start before it all went wrong
What's going on?
Fast forward to the end, after everyone's gone home
And they've forgotten it all

This ain't a movie that I wanna see
A tragic story, starring you and me
Yell "cut", we're stuck inside this scene
This is heartache on the big screen
The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time
The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines
My script is ripped and now I see
This is heartache on the big screen
This is heartache on the big screen

Curtain closes on this cliché
A good story of a bad day
Back to square one where I started
As I stand here broken-hearted
Fast forward to the end, after everyone's gone home
And they've forgotten it all

This ain't a movie that I wanna see
A tragic story, starring you and me
Yell "cut", we're stuck inside this scene
This is heartache on the big screen
The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time
The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines
My script is ripped and now I see

This is heartache on the big screen
If Hollywood could see me now
I'd get the starring role
But they won't so I'll just keep on acting a fool

This ain't a movie that I wanna see
A tragic story, starring you and me
Yell "cut", we're stuck inside this scene

Yeah

The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time
The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines
My script is ripped and now I see
This is heartache on the big screen
This is heartache on the big screen
This is heartache on the big screen

Dat is toch een super mooi liedje? Niet? Ze is zo getalenteerd. Volgens mij kan ze zelfs beter liedjes schrijven en drummen dan mij en de jongens.

They would yell, they would scream, they were fighting it out
She would hope, she would pray, she was waiting it out
Holding onto a dream
While she watches these walls fall down
Sharp words like knives, they were cutting her down
Shattered glass like the past, it's a memory now
Holding onto a dream
While she watches these walls fall down

Hey mum, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

Wrote it down on the walls, she was screaming it out
Made it clear, she's still here, are you listening now?
Just a ghost in the halls
Feeling empty, they're vacant now
All the battles, all the wars, all the times that you've fought
She's the scar, she's the bruises, she's the pain that you brought
There was life, there was love
Like a light and it's fading out

Hey mum, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

You've gotta let it go, you're losing all your hope
Nothing left to hold, locked out in the cold
Your painted memories then washed out all the scenes
I'm stuck in between a nightmare and lost dreams

Hey mum, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Hey mum, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
This broken home

Dat is mijn favoriet. Maar waarom heeft ze ze weg gesmeten? Zou ik ze aan de jongens laten zien? Ik weet niet. Ik ben zo berzorgd om Alexa. Ze is lief, getalenteerd, knap, stoer,... eigenlijk is ze gewoon weg perfect. Oké, Ashton wat ben je nu allemaal aan het denken. Ik ben toch niet verliefd op haar? Nee, dat mag niet gebeuren ze is gewoon je beste vriendin. Niet meer, niet minder. Maar wil ik meer? Nee, nee, dat wil ik niet. Wat ik voor haar voel is alleen vriendschap, toch?
