Tobias' P.O.V

"We are welcome here today, to celebrate a very special person, Tris Prior. Unfortunately Tris was shot dead one month ago and her loved ones had to say goodbye." I try not to cry as the priest talks but it's so hard. Christina sits next to me letting her tears go, she's holding my hand trying to comfort me but it doesn't because it's not her hand.
"I would like to invite Tobias up to say a few words about Tris." Usually I don't like much attention on me but today I have decided to man up for Tris.
"Tris was a very special person to everyone but to me she was more. Tris was and still is the love of my life, she always has been and always will be. I remember when she first hit the net, as a initiate. No one could believe it, a stiff jumped first but she wasn't like any of those other stiffs, she was different. I could say so many things but I can't without crying so I'm going to sing a song that Tris loved. This is to Tris, for Tris, I love you." As I say this I look up at the sky.

I'm jealous of the rain
That falls upon your skin
It's closer than my hands have been
I'm jealous of the rain
I'm jealous of the wind
That ripples through your clothes
It's closer than your shadow
Oh, I'm jealous of the wind, cause

Chorus
I wished you, the best of
All this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There's nothing to forgive
But I' always thought you'd come back and tell me
All you found was heartbreak and misery
It's hard for me to say
I'm jealous of the way
You're happy without me

I'm jealous of the nights
That' I don't spend with you
I'm wondering who you lay next to
Oh, I'm jealous of the nights
I'm jealous of the love
The love that wasn't here
Gone for someone else to share
Oh, I'm jealous of the love, cause

Chorus
I wished you the best of
All this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There's nothing to forgive
But I always thought you'd come back and tell me
All you found was heartbreak and misery
It's hard for me to say,
I'm jealous of the way
You're happy without me

As I sink in the sand
Watch you slip through my hands
Oh, as I die here another day
Cause all I do is cry behind this smile

Chorus
I wished you the best of
All this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There's nothing to forgive
But I always thought you'd come back and tell me
All you found was heartbroken and misery
It's hard for me to say
I'm jealous of the way
You're happy without me

It's hard for me to say
I'm jealous of the way
Your happy without me
