Stay With Me (Epilogue)
Panic Button
There were seven.
They were a strange seven, and perhaps it was fate or coincidence that brought them together. They were stronger together than they would ever be apart, as they were each forced to discover.
They were changed. There were seven, and then these seven were replaced with others. They may have been others that had the same name and looked the same, but these ghosts were not them. Not who they used to be.
You tell me: could they ever be the same?
What prison was holding them before? What prison was holding them after?
Could they ever be whole again?
Why couldn't they stay?
And tell me - is this real? Or is this just a tragic foreshadowing of what could happen?
(i) You were a silhouette, a shivering shadow in the mingled ash and snow
(ii) I took your fevered hands - felt like embers of the world's dying glow
(iii) And you were feather light as I carried you quietly through the crumbling streets
(iv) And in the fading light I could see in your eyes that somehow we were meant to meet
(v) Would you stay with me
(vi) If you thought the war was over
(vii) And everything made right?
(viii) Would you still believe in us
(ix) Or would your love for me grow colder
(x) With no one left to fight?
(xi) Would you stay with me?
Would you stay with me?
(xii) After the fever left, together we'd scavenge through the city and her scars
