Emmett gave me a soft hug afterwards. I sighed in his big arms.

"Why did you write this for me?" I asked after he let go.

He shrugged, saying, "Thought you could use a new shoulder to cry on."

I nodded, teary-eyed.

"Do you think that someday, you'd be better off, without...?" He nodded to my scars on my arm.

I shrugged, "I don't know, Em, I really don't."

~oOo~

Emmett asked Edward to feature on his album, too, and Edward obliged.

Later on that month, after Emmett and I finished and released our song, Edward was ready for his turn.

It starts with one thing I don't know why

It doesn't even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme

To explain in due time

All I know time is a valuable thing

Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings

Watch it count down to the end of the day

The clock ticks life away

It's so unreal, didn't look out below

Watch the time go right out the window

Trying to hold on but didn't even know

Wasted it all just to watch you go

I kept everything inside

And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me

Will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard and got so far

But in the end it doesn't even matter

I had to fall to lose it all

But in the end it doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why

It doesn't even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme

To remind myself how I tried so hard

In spite of the way you were mocking me

Acting like I was part of your property

Remembering all the times you fought with me

I'm surprised it got so far

Things aren't the way they were before

You wouldn't even recognize me anymore

Not that you knew me back then

But it all comes back to me in the end
