(Haven't done one of these in a really long time. I thought this song was appropriate for the situation. Obviously changed a couple words. Nothing important just changed girl to boy)

Dream's POV

Why should I play this game of pretend?

I sang as I wandered through a field of broken stones

Remembering through a secondhand sorrow?

I thought about my brother, the one I had mourned before

Such a great son and wonderful friend

I miss him

Oh, don't the tears just pour

But that's not him anymore

I could curl up and hide in my room

I sat down, leaning against a tree.

There in my bed, still sobbing tomorrow

I held back all the tears that were threatening to spill over

I could give in to all of the gloom

I should be celebrating

But tell me, tell me what for

We finally beat him, the multiverse is safe

Why should I have a heavy heart?

It's not we got along anymore

Why should I start to break in pieces?

My soul still feels so broken, and empty

Why should I go and fall apart for you?

I practically shouted at the sky. Why do I feel this way?

Why should I play the grieving boy and lie

I don't feel anything for that, that Monster!

Saying that I miss you

But I do.

And that my world has gone dark without your light?

I can see Night's face, smiling and then disappearing.

I will sing no requiem tonight

I sing as I get up and walk more.

I gave you the world, you threw it away

When we played together, I always tried to make him happy

Leaving these broken pieces behind you

I notice a journal and walk over to it. It has Nightmare's name on it, he must have left it here

Everything wasted, nothing to say

I cautiously pick it up.

So I can sing no requiem

I don't care anyway

I hear your voice, I feel you near

I spent hours reading the journal

Within these words, I finally find you

It really seems like he actually cared about me

And now that I know that you are still here

Part of the person I loved was still in him

I will sing no requiem tonight

I give a small smile. I finally feel slightly better

Why should I have a heavy heart?

But still, why do I even care?

Why should I say I'll keep you with me?

I hug the journal to my chest

Why should I go and fall apart for you?

The tears come back again. I miss him

Why should I play the grieving boy and lie

I stare at the journal in my hands

Saying that I miss you and that my world has gone dark without your light? (I can see your light)

I see another flash, of us reading a book together and then it's gone

I will sing no requiem

I walk away, to a huge burned tree stump.

Tonight

I put the journal down on the stump.

'Cause when the villains fall, the kingdoms never weep

The multiverse was safe now

No one lights a candle to remember

I put down a lit candle, next to the journal

No, no one mourns at all

My friends are all celebrating

When they lay them down to sleep

I take out Nightmare's crown and place it on my small memorial. Why did I even keep this stupid thing?

So, don't tell me that I didn't have it right

I was the one who was right. I was the good one, right?

Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white

I remembered him destroying an AU and we fought

After all you put me through

I can see the memories of our home burning

Don't say it wasn't true

STOP MESSING WITH MY HEAD!

That you were not the monster

I see us when we were fighting he stabbed Blue and killed him

That I knew

Another memory of us curled up in the same bed, cuddling. We just needed each other

'Cause I cannot play the grieving boy and lie

The sadness I feel is overwhelming, but I'm mourning someone long dead

Saying that I miss you And that my world has gone dark

The tears spill over, I can't even finish the line. I take a deep breath

I will sing no requiem

I sit next to the memorial

I will sing no requiem

I shouldn't feel this way

I will sing no requiem tonight

I pull my knees to my chest, and just cry

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh
