Prison Gates wont open up for me

On these hands and knees I’m crawling

Oh, I reach for you...

I walk to school on a stormy morning. I see my prison up ahead, how I wish I didn’t have to enter that horrible place. I walk into school, seeing everyone, and yet not one sees me, or doesn’t want to. Some whispers arise over near a group of younger students, while I walk pass to my locker. I go half way up the stairs when I trip and fall down the stairs. I ask for help but no one looks or even gives a hint at my existents. So I try to hurry and pick myself up and go to class, while wondering, ‘where is she?’

Well I’m terrified of these four walls

These iron bars can’t hold my soul in

All I need is you

Come please I’m calling

And oh I scream for you

Hurry I’m falling

I'm falling

I walk from my locker through the crowded hallways. I then, walk into my class to see no one there but the quiet girl, who sits next to me. I notice that she looks straight into my eyes; she blushes as I smile at her. I know she has a crush on me, yet I can’t return it. I look around to see that the room has nothing in it other then the desks and chalkboard, so bland it makes me sick. I sit down in my seat and look at the window, at that moment my soul and mind fly out of the window in search of peace. I whisper to the world and myself, "where’d you go?"

Show me what it’s like

To be the last one standing

And teach me wrong from right

And I’ll show you what I can be

And say it for me

Say it to me

And I’ll leave this life behind me

Say it if it’s worth savin’ me

“I thought you loved me once, Why didn't you?” I whisper as I walk out of the school towards my house. I wonder in thought, ‘Why did you leave me, who did you leave me for… and most importantly was it just a fling for you?’ I unlock my door and walk in to see my little brother sleeping; I think that his life would be better if I wasn’t here. I walk to the rooftop of my apartment and look over the edge.

“I would always love her yet she shattered me.” I feel the rushing winds hit my face softly as I whisper into it “You never said it to me, why?”

Heaven’s gates won’t open up for me

With these broken wings I’m falling

And all I see is you

I step forward off the edge of the building, feeling the winds rush past me like a whirlwind. I turn to try and see if anyone is up there, no one. I flash back to a night that I last saw her:

“Love you babe.” I said, she just nods and pulls me along towards the dance floor.

“Why can I see your smiling face and yet not touch its loveliness?

These city walls ain’t got no love for me

I’m on the ledge of the eighteenth storey

And oh I scream for you

Come please I’m calling

And all I need from you

Hurry I’m falling

I'm falling

As I fall I have another flash back of her brother and his gang:

I just got done with a date with her when her brother and his gang showed up. They start to yell and swear at me for dating his sister. They beat the hell out of me and leave me lying in my own blood in a forgotten alley in a rainy night. I was found and brought to the hospital, I lay there wondering wither I should continuing to date her. I decided to but as I lay there she never came to see me. I was heart broken from her lack of concern for me. I scream out her name as I am falling down the side of that brick building.

Show me what it’s like

To be the last one standing

And teach me wrong from right

And I’ll show you what I can be

And say it for me

Say it to me

And I’ll leave this life behind me

Say it if it’s worth savin me

Hurry I’m falling

I am broken out of my trance of flash backs by a voice screaming my name from above. I stare upwards through the rain trying to see who it might be. I see her figure, soaked in water and tears screaming out my name and for me to save myself. Some of her tears fall onto my body.

Yeah, yeah----hey

And all I need is you

Come please I’m calling

And oh I scream for you

Hurry I’m falling

I'm falling

I'm falling

Tears fill up my eyes as I see her crying above me and

I scream out her name and three simple words….

Show me what it’s like

To be the last one standing

And teach me wrong from right

And I’ll show you what I can be

And say it for me

Say it to me

And I’ll leave this life behind me

Say it if it’s worth savin me

Hurry I’m falling

“I love you” Tears have blurred my vision, yet I can still hear her cries of sorrow. I wish I could hold her to comfort her. I know that I have decided my fate yet a part of me wants her, her beautiful brunette hair, stare into her sapphire eyes with my brown ones. I break out of my deep thought as I hear her scream out my name and something not out of anger or sorrow but out of joy…

And say it for me

Say it to me

And I’ll leave this life behind me

Say it if it’s worth savin me

I hear the words I have wanted since that day I chose to date her.

“I love you too” She says as she jumps towards me as I fall. She reaches me about half way down and I wrap my arms around her to protect her from the full force of the cement below. We fall together whispering to each other of how much we long each other and how desperately we want to be together. Then when we were about to hit the net made by the firefighters, I wake up in a cold sweat. Looking over my left side to see her next to me, my love, sleeping. I sigh at how I could be so selfish, she had it just as rough. She tries to cuddle close to me, and I lay back down and hold her close.

I kiss her forehead and say “Glad we survived, I love you.” She stirs at my movements and as I slowly fall asleep I hear those words again,

“I love you too” from her soft lips.

END!!
