Adams pov

After I performed, I walked off of the stage. I saw the disappointed and heartbroken faces when I announced that my music carrier was over, and I didn't feel like sticking around to see it again.

Once Black Veil Brides performed, I was free to go. It only felt right that I stayed for the rest if the concert.

I was shocked when Adam said that he was going to quit music. I know how much he loved music, and I don't know if throwing it away is such a good idea. After the show, Ill have to talk to him.

Ashley, CC, Jake, Jinx, and I walked up to the stage, smiling at the crowd. I loved this feeling. The rush of adrenaline as you walked on stage, doing what you love to do. I know if Adam goes through with his decision he would miss this terribly.

"Hey guys!" I said into the microphone. "Before we begin I will like to say something. I know it's hard, putting a friend, a daughter, a legend down to rest. It's not easy. And the pain you feel every day is not easy to go through. Yeah, we lost a friend today. Max is gone, she's not coming back. Not in a physical appearance. she can come back with music. You brought jimmy "the rev" Sullivan back to life with st. James and so far away. You didn't forget him. And now, we can't forget max. She may be gone forever, but her music could live on.

The first song we are going to sing is lost it all. A song about falling down, but knowing that you will be able to stand back up.

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.

I said, "Then I lost it all."

And who can save me now?

(Oh)

I believe that we all fall down sometimes (Oh)

Can't you see (can't you see) that we all fall down sometimes? (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah)

I believe that we all fall down sometimes (Oh)

(Can't you see) Can't you see that we all fall down sometimes? (Yeah, we all, yeah, we all fall down)

Yeah

I believe that we all fall down sometimes

Yeah"

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I almost started crying singing this song. but I didn't. I had to stay strong for not only my fans and Adam, but for Max. She was a strong, courageous girl, and I am glad that she influenced people as much as she did.

"The next song is saviour. It's about finding a saviour in a time of need. Its about finding someone to help you along the way. Remember to find your saviour.

I never meant to be the one

Who kept you from the dark

But now I know my wounds are sewn

Because of who you are

I will take this burden on

And become the holy one

But remember I am human

And I'm bound to sing this song

So hear my voice remind you not to bleed

I'm here,

Saviour will be there

When you are feeling alone, oh

A saviour for all that you do

So you live freely without their harm

So here I write my lullaby

To all the lonely ones

Remember as you learn to try

To be the one you love

So I can take this pen

And teach you how to live

What is left unsaid

The greatest gift I give

So hear my voice remind you not to bleed

I'm here,

S aviour will be there

When you are feeling alone, oh

A saviour for all that you do

So you live freely without their harm

[Violin solo]

Saviour will be there

When you are feeling alone, oh

A saviour for all that you do

So you live freely without their harm

When I hear your cries

Praying for light

I will be there

When I hear your cries

Praying for light

I will be there

I will be there!

I will always be there!

I will be there!"

As I finished the song, I realised something. Adam was much more than a father and an idol to Max.

Adam was Max's saviour. He saved Max in her time of need.
