*Pennsylvania*
All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me locked up in your broken mind
I keep searching, never been able
To find a light behind your dead eyes
Not anything at all
You keep living in your own lie
Ever deceitful and ever unfaithful
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
Take everything from my world
Say, "Can you help me?" right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves
Keep me dumb, keep me paralyzed
Why try swimming? I'm drowning in fable
You're not that saint that you externalize
You're not anything at all
(All I really want is something beautiful to say)
It was a dismal night, as Katherine stood in front of Elijah.
"What do you want?" he said, his tone saying he didn't want to talk to her.
"To tell you that you're right. I spent so much time running and lying just to survive that I don't—I'm starting to believe my own lies. I don't even remember who I was when we first met. And I don't want to find out." She took a black box out of her purse.
"You have the cure," he stated.
"Yes, and I can shove this down Klaus' throat and try to kill him, but even if I manage to do it, I'd lose you. And I don't want that to happen." She put the box in his hand. "I want you to trust me just like I'm trusting you. You don't owe me anything. I'm going to let you decide where we go from here."
He watched, as she walked away, before looking down at the cure in his hand.
*Mystic Falls*
It's all so playful when you demonize
To spit out the hateful, you're willing and able
Your words are weapons of the terrified
You're nothing in my world
Say, "Can you help me?" right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves
It was a nebulous night at the Mikaelson place, as Elijah stood in front of her.
"Please, Elijah. It's our turn," she pleaded, Elijah having told her that he was leaving town to go follow Klaus to New Orleans.
He kissed her on the forehead.
"Goodbye, Katerina."
As he walked away, she stood there with a shattered, broken heart.
