Play the song when I say





(Mangles POV)

After TB asked Foxy the question, there was a long silence until Foxy got up and left without even grabbing his things. I looked at TB with a glare along with everyone else. Then I got up, grabbed my jacket and Foxy's stuff, and left to follow him. After I got out of the house, I saw his car sitting there with him walking down the road. I looked at Foxy. He had something in his hand. It looked like a duffle bag. I walked after him, keeping a distance. He started to go faster, making me fall behind. Soon after I found him, I saw him with a guitar in his hands under a tree next to a small stream. I then heard beautiful music being played. I couldn't help but stop and listen.

"There's a little house on a perfect little hill."
Just short of a fairytale.
There's a little child with a million ways to feel.
Caught up in a hurricane


Paper-thin walls
Angry words from down the hall
Something changed then. I think about him every now and again.


Now there's a ghost in the back of this room, and I don't like it. I fall asleep with my covers pulled up and try to fight it.
I gotta say, it's hard to be brave.
When you're alone in the dark, I told myself that I wouldn't be scared, but I'm still having nightmares.
I'm still having nightmares (but I'm still having nightmares).


Never did I think I'd be coming back around, digging up old memories.
I always used to be the one to let it go. kept my fears in a suitcase.


I locked them all away.
In a location, I would not expect to find
They still haunt me.
I think about it every now and then.

Foxy He then opens his eyes and looks over. He then sees me standing there. I panic slightly. "How long were you standing there?" He asks, wiping tears away. "Um, since the beginning," I say, "I really liked it." I tell him. "Oh you forgot this", I say, holding his bag up. "Oh, uh, thanks." He gets up and takes it. "Do you think you could play again?" I asked sitting down. "Uh, sure, I guess," he says. "Any requests?" Foxy asks. "No, I want to hear what you want to play," I tell him.

He nods and starts playing (play this song now).
"Mayday situation overload"
I'm restless, obsessed with your future.
And all my worries don't bother you.
You have rendered me useless.
But I carry on
Right now, I think that you think that I'm half drunk, searching for something of substance, casually dropping a line, designed to keep you next to me.
I can't awkwardly craft in advance.
I know that you wouldn't fall for that.
You say, "Shut up and take my hand"
and we carry on.
I don't want to say good night.
The city comes alive when we're together.
Why can't Thursday last forever?
I don't want to say good night.
I've never been so sure.
Just do it for the memories.
Do it for Baltimore.
And do it for me.
Hot damn, look at me now.
I'm all caught up in riding the high of my
Good luck. Casually dropping a line, designed to keep you next to me.
I bet you never thought you would fall again.
So much for keeping this, just friends.
Shut up and kiss me now.
And we carry on. I don't want to say goodnight.
The city comes alive when we're together.
Why can't Thursday last forever?
I don't want to say good night.
I've never been so sure.
Just do it for the memories.
Do it for Baltimore.
And do it for me.
(Do it for me).
Overwhelming Mayday situation
I'm restless, obsessed with your future.
And all my worries don't bother you.
You have rendered me useless.
But I carry on; I don't want to say goodnight.
The city comes alive when we're together.
Why can't Thursday last forever?
I don't want to say goodnight. I've never been so sure. Just do it for the memories.
Do it for Baltimore.
And do it for me. "
He finishes, and I clap quietly. "I really liked that," I told him. "Heh, thanks."

"Do you think you would be alright heading back?" I ask. He just nods "as long as nobody asks anymore stupid questions and no one spins the bottle." That was way too awkward, he tells me. I nod and get up, grabbing his arm to pull him up.

Then TB apologized to Foxy. After that, we got back to the sleepover. Since it was pretty late, we all got into our sleeping bags or whatever we had and fell asleep.

This chapter is very short without the lyrics, so I'm sorry for that. I just did not want to cram a bunch of things in here. I will say this for the first song. I wanted to find one that worked with the story. If you were to listen to it enough, you would probably get why I picked it and why it's perfect for the story. Anyway, bye!!
