BTW LOTS OF TEARS ARE SHED

Why should I play this game of pretend?
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow?
Such a great son and wonderful friend
Oh, don't the tears just pour

Alana turned to Zoe and asked her "are you going to be okay Zo?" Zoe gripped he chair and nodded. Alana noticed the tension and hugged Zoe.

I could curl up and hide in my room
There in my bed, still sobbing tomorrow
I could give in to all of the gloom
But tell me, tell me what for

Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I start to break in pieces?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you
And that my world has gone dark without your light?
I will sing no requiem tonight

Conner only looked down. He looked so distressed. No one knew how to comfort him but Evan whispered something to him and hugged him.

I gave you the world, you threw it away
Leaving these broken pieces behind you
Everything wasted, nothing to say
So I can sing no requiem

Larry looked away. He looked angry. Not with anyone specific just. Himself.

I hear your voice, I feel you near
Within these words, I finally find you
And now that I know that you are still here
I will sing no requiem tonight

Conner smiled a little for his mother. His mom. He hurt hurt her so much yet, she cared and felt he was there. So his eyes started to water.

Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I say I'll keep you with me?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you and that my world has gone dark without your light? (I can see your light)
I will sing no requiem
Tonight

Cynthia was crying Larry hugging her from being next to her. Conner pretended to be pissed but it didn't last long.

'Cause when the villains fall, the kingdoms never weep
No one lights a candle to remember
No, no one mourns at all
When they lay them down to sleep
So, don't tell me that I didn't have it right
Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white
After all you put me through
Don't say it wasn't true
That you were not the monster
That I knew

Both Murphy siblings were crying. They knew their bond was broken but Zoe felt like she should feel bad and lied to herself. Conner felt like he destroyed anything his family gave him. All their hope. How he- He was sobbing. Gripping his chair.

'Cause I cannot play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you And that my world has gone dark
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem tonight
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh

Conner pretty much kept whispering "I'm sorry" to himself. He looked down and cried. The tears poured. He made so many mistakes.

Mistakes he felt he could never fix
