Abby’s Point of View
“I can’t believe I won’t get to see you tomorrow.” I said and then let out a rather loud sigh. “I know, I’m sorry Love, but we have to play a show tomorrow, if we didn’t have to I’d be on a plane right now to come and see you.” Oli said and I smiled a little. “I know, I just can’t imagine having Christmas without you.” I said and groaned. “I know babe and I’m sorry. You’re going to my mum’s right?” he asked and I nodded, Mrs. Sykes invited me over last week. “Yeah, you’re mum asked me what I was doing for Christmas and I told her nothing because my parents were leaving the country for whatever reason and she invited me over and I didn’t turn her down because I don’t want to be alone for the holidays.” I said and he nodded. “Alright, you’ll like my family, they’re really nice and you know my brother so you can talk to him.” He said with a smiled and I returned the smile. “Well I have to go now, Merry Christmas Eve, Love you.” He said with another dazzling smile. “I love you too.” I said before he ended our video chat. I shut my laptop when I heard my phone ringing, crap I left it on Scarlett’s stroller. I ran over to it but it had just stopped ringing when I got to it. I bent down to grab it to see who had called when something in the basket of the stroller caught my eye. I picked it up and it was a CD case and it had some strange picture on the front and it was titled “There Is a Hell Believe Me I’ve Seen It. There Is a Heaven Let’s Keep It A Secret.” I looked at the bottom and it said “Bring Me the Horizon” I smiled and walked over to my CD player and put it in. I’ve been meaning to listen to this but I haven’t been able to find it in stores. I listened to the first four songs and they were absolutely amazing, then the fifth one began to play. There was a beautiful violin playing at the beginning before my loves voice came through my speakers.
I was raised in the valley, there were shadows and death.
Got out alive but with scars I can't forget.
This kid back in school, subdued and shy.
An orphan and a brother and unseen by most eyes.
I don't know what it was that made a piece of him die,
Took a boy to the forest, slaughtered him with a scythe.
Stamped on his face, an impression in the dirt.
Do you think the silence makes a good man convert?
We all have our horrors and our demons to fight.
But how can I win, when I'm paralyzed?
They crawl up on my bed; wrap their fingers around my throat.
Is this what I get for the choices that I made?
God forgive me, for all my sins. God forgive me, for everything.
God forgive me, for all my sins. God forgive me, God forgive me.
Don't go, I can't do this on my own.
Don't go, I can't do this on my own.
Save me from the ones that haunt me in the night.
I can't live with myself, so stay with me tonight.
Don't go.
Don't go.
[Lights:]
If I let you in, you'd just want out.
If I tell you the truth, you'd fight for a lie.
If I spilt my guts, it would make a mess we can't clean up.
If you follow me, you will only get lost.
If you try to get closer, we'll only lose touch.
But you already know too much, and you're not going anywhere.
