Lea
Me and Cory's wedding's tomorrow and I'm so excited yet, exhausted. "Hey love, you look exhausted." Cory comes up from behind me, and pulls me to him, kissing my ear. "I know what you need." He smirks, and grabs me, and grabs his keys.
Cory
I put her in the car kissing her lips as, I close the door. I climb in, and start the car up and pull out of the driveway. It was now the end of September, even though it doesn't feel like it. We drive around whenever we need to getaway for a little while. No plan, no destination, just us and the great wide open road. I then hear Lea sing softly it's a new song, a beautiful song. So I hum along. "Two kids with curious hearts
Not afraid to break
Running wild, running too far
Trying to find a way
Rubbing pennies together, for worse or for better
One glass of cheap champagne
It's now or it's never, we hope it's forever
All we got is one way, leaving fingerprints behind
'Cause if I got you, if you got me
We don't need nothing else at all
Sleeping all day, driving all night
Looking for a place we want to go
Stole the night, now this world is ours, love
Just us kids in a getaway car
Change our names, make friends in new places
Be anyone we want
Through the days, millions of faces
We're always holding on
Rubbing pennies together, for worse or for better
One glass of cheap champagne
It's now or it's never, we hope it's forever
We ran away, leaving fingerprints behind
'Cause if I got you, if you got me
We don't need nothing else at all
Sleeping all day, driving all night
Looking for a place to call our home
Stole the night, now this world is ours, love
We're chasing love in a getaway car
And we're singing
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe you're crazy
Babe if we're crazy, I'd rather be crazy
We don't need anything at all
We'll find a place to call our own
Rubbing pennies together, for worse or for better
One glass of cheap champagne
It's all or it's never, we hope it's forever, our love
'Cause if I got you, if you got me
We don't need anything at all
Sleeping all day, driving all night
Looking for a place to call our own
Stole the night, now this world is ours, love
It's just us kids in a getaway car
Two kids with curious hearts, not afraid to break." She smiles and I kiss her hand. "Thinking of the next album?" I ask and she nods.
Lea
"LOUDER" came out at the end of July and I couldn't be more proud of it. I couldn't be more proud of him either. I feel him pull me into his arms, as my body finally relaxes. I fall asleep peacefully.
Cory
I sing softly with the radio. "Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Like my father's come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are

As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Ring out the bells again
Like we did when spring began
Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are

As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Like my father's come to pass
Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends.
Starry nights, city lights coming down over me
Skyscrapers and stargazers in my head
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting unknown
This dirty town was burning down in my dreams
Lost and found, city bound in my dreams

And screaming
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting
And screaming
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting

Forget-me-nots and second thoughts live in isolation
Heads or tails and fairytales in my mind
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting unknown
The rage and love, the story of my life
The Jesus of Suburbia is a lie

And screaming
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting
And screaming
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting unknown
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting
And screaming
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting unknown
Are we we are, are we we are the waiting unknown." I sing as the song mashup fades out. I turn and head towards the beach, when we get there, the warm air of the night hitting my face, and I smile. As I tap along to a U2 song. "See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I'll wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait, without you
With or without you
With or without you
Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
Oh
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you." I smile falling asleep.
