They left us alone,
The kids in the dark,
To burn out forever,
Or light up a spark,
We come together,
State of the art,
We'll never surrender,
The kids in the dark,
So let the world sing,
"What a shame,
What a shame,
Beautiful scars
On critical veins, "
Come together,
State of the art,
We'll never surrender,
The kids in the dark,
The kids in the dark...

(The kids in the dark, the kids in the dark)

Here we are at the top of the hill - a hill that's quietly crumbling,
Been a while since you dressed for the kill- the kill that sent me tumbling,
Looking up, I see a falling star, and watch its fire burn into the floor,
I am left standing on the edge,
Wondering why we fall so hard, why we fall so hard,

They left us alone,
The kids in the dark,
To burn out forever,
Or light up a spark,
We come together,
State of the art,
We'll never surrender,
The kids in the dark,
So let the world sing,
"What a shame,
What a shame,
Beautiful scars
On critical veins, "
Come together,
State of the art,
We'll never surrender,
The kids in the dark,
The kids in the dark...

Whoa
Whoa (The kids in the dark, the kids in the dark)
Whoa
Whoa

They left us alone,
The kids in the dark,
To burn out forever,
Or light up a spark,
We come together,
State of the art,
We'll never surrender,
The kids in the dark,
So let the world sing,
"What a shame,
What a shame,
Beautiful scars
On critical veins,"
Come together,
State of the art,
We'll never surrender,
The kids in the dark,
The kids in the dark...

(The kids in the dark, the kids in the dark)
We'll never surrender,
The kids in the dark,
The kids in the dark."

I clapped and he finished writing down the lyrics and smiling. "Sounds amazing baby!" I said. He set the guitar down and closed the notebook, "Thanks baby." He said. "So what should we do now?" I asked as I took the guitar. "Play something." He said. I smiled and strummed, "Heard this one yet?" I asked him as I played. "No." He replied. I nodded, "I wrote it a few years ago." I said. Then started to sing.

"I woke up and saw the sun today
You came by without a warning
You put a smile on my face
I want that for every morning

What is it I'm feeling?
'Cause I can't let it go
If seeing is believing
Then I already know

I'm falling fast
I hope this lasts
I'm falling hard for you
I say "Let's take a chance"
Take it while we can
I know you feel it too

I'm falling fast
I'm falling fast

It doesn't matter what we do
You make everything seem brighter
I never knew I needed you
Like a sad song needs a sea of lighters

What is it I'm feeling?
'Cause I can't let it go
If seeing is believing
I already know

I'm falling fast God
I hope this lasts
'Cause I'm falling hard for you
I say "Let's take a chance"
Take it while we can
'Cause I know you feel it too

I'm falling fast
I'm falling fast

I hope you know
I hope it lasts
I'm falling hard, I'm falling fast
We can go, no holding back

(For you)

I'm falling fast
I hope this lasts
I'm falling hard for you
I say "Let's take a chance"
Take it while we can
I know you feel it too

I'm falling fast
I'm falling fast."

I looked at him and saw he was smiling. "That was beautiful Liv." He said. I put the guitar in its stand and kissed him. "I love you." I said. "I love you too." He replied. "So, that's why I have to ask you something." He said. I watched him walk over to the small table and pick up something, when he turned around I saw it was the little box I'd been so curious about. He walked back over and stood in front of me. "Liv, you are... The most important person in my life. And I couldn't imagine a day without you in my life. You make me laugh when I'm angry, smile when I'm upset, and you make every day worth living. I love you more than I could ever tell you and I never want to lose you." He said. I was crying by now. "Evra, you're never going to lose me." I said. He smiled and then got down on one knee. My jaw dropped. "Scarlett Olivia, when I first asked for your last name you said you didn't have one. Now, I'm... I'm asking if you'd like to take mine." He asked, opening the box and revealing a beautiful ring!
"Liv, will you marry me?"
