I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
The rain cascaded down the window as the woman stared out into the dark. Her body was stiff from sitting in the same place for hours but she didn't notice.
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
The tears had stopped flowing a while ago, her eyes were dry now. She couldn't remember the last time she'd cried this much over something.
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
It wasn't what he'd done that had hurt her - yeah, the betrayal stung but she wasn't the only one he'd lied to - it was what he'd told her before they'd gone in there.
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
She felt stupid that she'd believed he loved her. He'd been deceiving her the whole time and Blade had told her not to trust him. She should have listened to Blade for once.
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with every day
It was over now. Nomak was dead and the threat was gone. Back to how it used to be: just her, Blade and Whistler.
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
Nothing could erase the past two years spent with him though. What made it worse was that she wasn't sure if she wanted to erase the memories of him or not.
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear
A door opened behind her but she ignored it. She didn't want to talk to Blade or Whistler about this. She wasn't ready for that yet.
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
Whoever it was sat against the wall. She could hear the water dripping from their clothes and assumed it was Blade. He'd probably come to tell her to stop moping.
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
Some time passed, the two of them sat in silence. She spoke in a quiet voice, "Leave me alone, Blade." The other person stood up and she tensed.
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
The person walked towards her and stopped a few feet behind her. "I told you to leave me alone," her voice was as cold as the rain she was staring into.
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
"But I'm not Blade..." the person's voice made her spin around in disbelief. This caused an immense amount of pain due to the stiffness but it vanished when she saw him in front of her.
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
He smiled weakly and fresh tears spilled out of her eyes. "But... you're dead?" she questioned. He shrugged, almost as if it didn't matter, "Only if you want me to be... Do you?"
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
"No," she sobbed and he closed the distance between them.
