*the same night*

Luke B's POV

"Guys, this is going to be my last concert, so I'm going to sing a song that really means a lot to me. I hope you enjoy it." Ana said.

She used to wonder where it all went wrong,

Why couldn't everything be fine?

But no, her life wasn't a perfect song,

Reality and fantasy has one fine line.

Wait, her last performance? The tour was supposed to continue for another five months.

Why couldn't they be there for her?

All she needed was a hero,

Why couldn't they be there for her?

You know, real life has no superheroes.

This song - is this really how she feels?

She had nothing when she needed everything,

Had nowhere to turn,

Like a bird with a broken wing,

Motionless with so much to learn.

I had no idea she felt so alone.

Why couldn't they be there for her?

All she needed was a hero.

Why couldn't they be there for her?

You know, real life has no superheroes.

She can't leave, I love her.

Lost, all afraid, surrounded by the darkness,

Couldn't find her way,

No one there to guide her through this,

More alone day after day.

Why can't she see that we will always be here for her - all us boys and Emily and Becky?

Why couldn't they be there for her?

All she needed was a hero.

Why couldn't they be there for her?

You know, real life has no superheroes.

Real life has no superheroes.

To be fair, real life doesn't have any superheroes.

"Thank you guys, for everything. I love you."

She walked off stage the other side, knowing I would be here watching, like I always do.

It was too late. I had to go on.

She was gone.
