There goes my heart beating

'Cause you are the reason

I'm losing my sleep

Please come back now

With his eyes squeezed tightly shut and his lips parted slightly, he allowed the name to slip off of his tongue as he reached out for her presence.

"Ahsoka?"

And there goes my mind racing 

"I'm not sure if you can hear me,"

And you are the reason

"But I just need to know if you're alright."

That I'm still breathing

"I wish you were still here."

I'm hopeless now

"Force, Snips, I miss you so much."

I'd climb every mountain 

And swim every ocean

Just to be with you

And fix what I've broken

"I know you can't come back, but-" his voice caught in his throat, "-but I never got to tell you how proud of you I was."

Oh 'cause I need you to see

That you are the reason

Ahsoka sniffed as the memory faded. All those years ago, when he was still... him... she had heard every word he said... but she could never bring herself to answer.

And now he was gone.

There goes my hand shaking

And you are the reason

She flipped herself over on her mattress pressing her face further and further into her pillow, trying to bury herself in it as the tears slid out.

My heart keeps bleeding

I need you now

"Please... please... just come back... just come home..."

If I could turn back the clock

"I should've been there for you, Anakin..."

And make sure the light defeated the dark

"I could've been there for you, Anakin," she cried quietly.

I'd spend every hour of everyday 

Keeping you safe

"I could've protected you," she continued, her fists clenching tighter and tighter by the second.

And I'd climb every mountain

"I would've stayed by your side..."

And swim every ocean

"... just like you did for me."

Just to be with you 

And fix what I've broken

"And I'm not sure if you can hear me!" she shouted into the air.

Oh 'cause I need you to see

"But everything's not alright!

That you are the reason

"And I know you've still gotta be in there somewhere!"

I don't wanna fight no more

"YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND!" she screamed, chucking her pillow across the room.

I don't wanna hurt no more

"YOU WERE MY BROTHER, ANAKIN SKYWALKER!"

I don't wanna cry no more

"I LOVE YOU!"

Come back, I need you to hold me closer now

She sank to her knees, her incomprehensible sentences muffled by her choked sobs.

You are the reason 

Just a little closer now

"COME BACK!"

Come a little closer now

I need you to hold me tonight

"PLEASE!"

I'd climb every mountain

She inhaled deeply.

And swim every ocean

She curled up into fetal position on her floor.

Just to be with you

"I could've been there for you..." she whispered

And fix what I've broken

"I would never leave you again... I just couldn't."

'Cause I need you to see

"Force, Skyguy, I miss you so much," she murmured through trembling lips.

That you are the reason

This is aaaaangstyyyyyy
