A/N: please someone make
This into a fan video.
The song is 'once the party's over' by 'Billie Eilish'

Don't you know I'm no good for you
I've learned to lose you, can't afford to
Tore my shirt to stop you bleedin'
But nothin' ever stops you leavin'

"Sherlock what? No...Sherlock come on!"

Pressing my hands to the wound in the hope it will stop bleeding, feeling as he's stopped moving under me, he's not even fighting back. Tear off a piece of my shirt sleeve and press it tighter to the wound and I receive a weak groan in protest.

Quiet when I'm coming home and I'm on my own

Come back to the flat and it's empty.
The sounds you made seem like we're always here and I realise it was always you.

I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that

"Don't be dead"

Don't you know too much already
I'll only hurt you if you let me
Call me friend but keep me closer (Call me back)

We were just friends. No more than that.

"I wanted more. Still do.."

"You're my best friend...of course you're my best friend"

And I'll call you when the party's over
Quiet when I'm coming home and I'm on my own

It feels like it's tearing at me. Like I could've stopped it. Could I have stopped it?

And I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
Yeah I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
But nothing is better sometimes
Once we've both said our goodbyes

Shake his hand as I see him visibly steel himself for this final mission.

"To the very best of times John"

Let's just let it go
Let me let you go
Quiet when I'm coming home and I'm on my own

"Miss me?"

And the plane turns around. Impossibly.
And you come back.

I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
