Falling for Days
The Only Exception
Mikey
Tour was coming to an end way too soon for my liking. I wasn’t looking forward to separating from Ana but Gerard had an idea. We hadn’t told anyone but MCR was planning on moving to LA.
“What’s going to happen when tour ends?” Ana asked one day while we were sitting around. I smiled and kissed her cheek.
“Don’t worry about it. Everything will work out” I told her. She smiled sadly before placing her head on my shoulder.
“Are you going to watch the show tonight?” she asked softly.
“Of course I will” I told her. It made her smile again.
When it came time for the show I had mixed feelings. I didn’t want to have to leave Ana yet but I knew that it wouldn’t be for very long.
“This next song is one that we haven’t recorded yet, and honestly it was written about two days ago so bear with us.” Sam started.
“This next song goes out to everyone we love and care about, specifically our boyfriends” Bianka finished. The song started out slowly with just an acoustic guitar. The first part was sung by Ana.
“When I was younger I saw my daddy cry
and curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and I watched
as he tried to reassemble it.
And my momma swore
that she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.
But darling,
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.” By this time, Sam had joined Ana and Ana walked away from her mic after the chorus ended.
“Maybe I know somewhere
deep in my soul
that love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways
to make it alone.
Or keep a straight face.
And I've always lived like this
keeping a comfortable distance.
And up until now I've sworn to myself
that I'm content with loneliness.
Because none of it was ever worth the risk.” Ana started singing again.
“Well you are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
I've got a tight grip on reality,
but I can't let go of what's in front of me here.
I know you're leaving in the morning
when you wake up.
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
And I'm on my way to believing.
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing.”
When the girls got off stage, every one of us hugged them. It was a great way to end the tour.
We went to the airport as a giant group and I held Ana until my flight was called.
“Call me when you land?” Ana asked. I nodded before kissing her and walking towards my gate.
