(CARTER’S POV)
I walked over to the venue and found Meri.
“Hey, Meerkat,” I said.
“Holy shit! What happened!?” she yelled, pointing to my face.
“Chris did my paint tonight,” I explained. “Hey, can we play ‘Lost it All” and Screaming tonight?”
“Sure, get your stuff tuned,” she said. I walked over to my instruments and started to tune.
“Unbroken Outcasts on in five!” our manger yelled. I walked on stage with the rest of the guys.
“Un-bro-ken Out-casts!” the crowd cheered. I smiled.
“Alright you mother fuckers, you ready for ran epic show tonight?!” I screamed into the mic.
We started to play.
We did:
Devil’s Night by MIW
End of Prom night by SWPB
Match into Water by PTV
The Depths by OM&M
Congratulations by SWS
Inglorious by Kerbera
I then smiled into the mic.
“Alright guys! This one is for my friend who insisted on me playing my viola tonight! This is-,” I paused as Meri handed me my viola, “lost it all by Black Veil Brides!” I said as we started to play. Ash was singing it for us because I couldn’t handle it. It was too emotional for me at the moment.
“I ruled the world.
With these hands I shook the heavens to the ground.
I laid the gods to rest.
I held the key to the kingdom.
Lions guarding castle walls.
Hail the king of death.
Then I lost it all
Dead and broken.
My back's against the wall.
Cut me open.
I'm just trying to breathe,
Just trying to figure it out
Because I built these walls to watch them crumbling down.
I said, "Then I lost it all."
And who can save me now?
I stood above
Another war,
Another jewel upon the crown.
I was the fear of man.
But I was blind.
I couldn't see the world there right in front of me.
But now...I can... (Yeah)
'Cause I lost it all
Dead and broken.
My back's against the wall.
Cut me open.
I'm just trying to breathe,
Just trying to figure it out
Because I built these walls to watch them crumbling down.
