Elastic Heart

"Now another one bites the dust
And let's be clear, I trust no one

You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace

Well I've got thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard
But I may snap when I move close
But you won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart"

"And I will stay up through the night
Let's be clear, I won't close my eyes
And I know that I can survive
I walked through fire to save my life
And I want it, I want my life so bad
And I'm doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust
It's hard to lose a chosen one"

"Maddie? Are you okay?" He said, creeping slowly towards her scrunched up body. Her head snaps up out of her position at his voice, revealing her blood shot eyes. "Are you real? Or just another illusion?" She asked, her voice hoarse. He takes another step, noticing her bare body, and her shredded clothes. "I'm real. What did they do to you?" He asked, his voice gently. Taking another step, he kneels a foot away from her.

More tears fall, as she smiles. But it was a broken, painful smile. "They... t-they... um..." Bucky caught on to what she was trying to say, and clenched his fists. "Oh, doll. I'm so sorry." He said taking off his coat, wrapping it round her. That's when she loses it. "I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I didn't want to! I didn't want to! I did it, again, and again, but I didn't want to!" She cried into his chest.

"Shh. It's okay doll. It's not your fault, it's never your fault." He said rocking her slowly. She calmed down slightly at Bucky's words, her hands full of his shirt. "Bucky." "Hm?" "Does this make me a whore?" Bucky stopped his movements, looking at her wide eyed. "No! Why would you say that?" She shrugged, giving him a crazy broken smile. "Because my mind is broken. And I don't think straight." She said, falling asleep.
