Break me down... (austin)

[ania]

Phoenix sat in the middle of an almost empty room, her fingers running over the smooth keys of a piano. She let her head hang down as she began to play, slowly and softly singing.


"Your subtleties they strangle me
I can't explain myself at all
And all the wants, and all the needs
All I don't want to need at all

The walls start breathing, my mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone
A weight is lifted on this evening
I give the final blow

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight, it ends tonight

A falling star, at least I fall alone
I can't explain what you can't explain
You're finding things that you didn't know
I look at you with such disdain

The walls start breathing, my mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone
A weight is lifted on this evening
I give the final blow

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight, it ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight, it ends tonight, it ends tonight

Now I'm on my own side
It's better than being on your side
It's my fault when you're blind
It's better that I see it through your eyes

All these thoughts locked inside
Now you're the first to know

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight, it ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight, it ends tonight

It ends when darkness turns to light
It ends tonight, it ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight, it ends tonight, it ends tonight
Tonight, insight
When darkness turns to light it ends tonight"

She let herself collapse on the keys, tears running down her face and onto the smooth ivory keys.

Ausitn headed down a dark corridor he had never been this way before. he had got a tip from a girl that a room of requirement was down this hallway and how to get to it. Austin walked by where the door was supposed to be three times saying. "I want to find the room of requirements.... I want to find the room of requirements.... I want to find the room of requirements." Ausitn waited for a minute and figured that it wasn't working for some reason. he was about to head back when a door apearded in the wall. he walked up to it and opened the handle not expecting what to find inside.

He walked in and as soon as the door opened he heard a lovely sound of a piano playing a quiet toon. he looked around to find the source of the noise. he was surprised to see his friend Pheonix playing it. Right then he figrued out why it wasn't working before it was becasue there had been another perosn in the room.

He walked slowly up to her and around the piano so she could see his face. he stood there for a while just listening to her. When she fineshed he whispered smiling. "That was beautiful."

Phoenix looked up, seeing Austin. "Oh... didn't know I have company. Thank you..." she said with a soft smile as she brushed away her tears and sat up, looking over at Austin. "So how have you been?" she said, still playing alittle on the the piano.

(sorry its so short...)

[np its fine after i do my first post mine are most of the time pretty short.]

Austin looked at her and his smile fadded alittle bit. "Um.. i have been fine.. You?" he looked at her tear stained face and asked. Is everything okay?" Ausitn had never really gotton a full glance of the ROR he looked around there were not any windows in there. There were how ever a couch a few chairs and it looked to be like there was also a... refrigerator? Anyway he quickly turned his brown piercing gaze back towards Pheonix.

Phoenix looked up at Austin again, forcing a smile onto her face. "Yeah... I just was reliving some rather painful memories." she said with a weak, faltering voice as she brushed back her curly black hair. She smiled again, trying hard to reassure him that she was okay.

[soccerboy]

Austin didn't buy that she was okay but he figured that he would drop the subject and if she wanted to bring it up then they would talk about it. "Well.. Okay.." Ausitn wasn't sure what t say at the moment, "I didn't know that you played the piano." He finally said in alittle bit of a shocked voice.

[ania]

"Yeah... I've played since I was five." she said straightnening out her voice. She smiled and softly began to play 'Lithium', softly singing the words to the song. "What about you?" she said with a smile, stopping halfway through the piece. "Do you play anything?"

[soccerboy]

"Um.. yeah i do i know how to play the quitar im not that good though." he added with a smile. Ausitn didn't like to brag that much. "So are you like in a band or anything?" he asked her pulling up a chair and sitting down in it waitng for her reply.
