| Fight No More |
| I can't sleep, everything I ever knew Is a lie without you I can't breathe, when my heart is broken in two There's no beat without you You're not gone but you're not here At least that's the way it seem tonight If we could try to end these wars I know that we can make it right 'Cause Baby Shane stood in the doorway. He rested his shoulder against the wooden frame. The room was a mess. Plates were scattered over the floor. Glasses were smashed in million little pieces. Chairs were thrown through the room. They had had another fight. The same fight they�ve having for weeks now. The night would start off great. Shane cooked diner. Nic would set the table. They would manage to avoid the topic of work until the main course. After that the plates would be flying through the room. Night after night. Shane felt empty inside. Nic was somewhere in the house. The strains of his job were harder on her than they were on him. Fans never commented on her when he was around. The abuse would start the moment he turned his back. But what was he supposed to do. Leave the band? Stop singing? Shane sighed. He couldn�t even remember what the reason for this fight was. He walked inside the room and started to pick up the broken plates and glasses. Again he would be trying to erase the evidence of a relationship falling apart. I don't wanna fight no more I forgot what we were fighting for And this loneliness that's in my heart Won't let me be apart from you I don't wanna have to try Girl to live without you in my life So I'm hoping we can start tonight 'Cause I don't want to fight no more Nic sat on the stairs. She heard Shane clean up the mess they made. She rested her head in her hands. Nic tried to remember what they were fighting about. Probably the new tour coming up or a TV show. Maybe it was the photo shoot on their anniversary. She didn�t know. Like always the fight got out of hand. Nic rose to her feet. Shane could use a helping hand. She walked to the door. He was standing in the middle of the room. He held a broken photo frame in his hand. �Shane?� He looked up. Tears threatened to spill. �I�m sorry.� He shrugged. Nic ran her hand through her hair. Maybe it was too late to patch things up. How can I leave, when everything that I adore And everything I'm living for girl its in you I can't dream, sleepless nights have got me bad The only dream I ever had is being with you. I know that we can make it right It's gonna take a little time Let's not leave ourselves with no way out Let's not cross the line She looked lost standing there looking at him. Shane wanted to reach out and hold her. But wasn�t it too late for that? He couldn�t imagine a life with her by his side. There had to be a way to make things work. A compromise to stop them fighting each night. He wanted to come home and be happy. Shane slowly stretched his arm. Her small hand slid in his. He pulled her close. They stood there for hours. Just holding each other. Silently praying that this wasn�t the end but a new beginning. Remember that I made a vow that I would never let you go I meant it then I mean it now and I want to tell you so Shane was the first to move. He slowly lifted Nic in his arms and carried her to the couch. He sat down with her on his lap. He laced their fingers together. Their wedding bands touched. He brushed a lock of hair out of her face. �Let�s promise this was the last fight. Nothing is more important than us. Nothing can keep us apart.� Nic nodded. Her lips brushed past his. �Promise. I just don�t want to fight no more.� |
