WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER
Who Wants to Live Forever
Music and lyrics: Brian May of Queen
From: Timeless (1997).
It’s so peaceful here she thought for a split second
the sun, the view from the hill soaked in easing the
ache of loneliness. Lucrezia smiled wistfully, well
Zechs if you were here at least its a beautiful
place to spend eternity.
There's no time for us,
There's no place for us,
What is this thing that builds our dreams,
Yet slips away from us.
A discreet ping signaled disconnection, the link to
Noin and any warmth he briefly felt from seeing her
disappeared. Leaving him alone. . So alone once again.
But hadn’t he always been alone in his on way? Zechs
turned walking to the window he stared unseeingly at
memories that continue to plague him endlessly.
**Flashback
“Zechs you’re not going to tell Relena are you ?” Who
you really are I mean.” Lucrezia smiled sadly, not
expecting an answer she slowly reached forward and
ended the transmission. O Zechs, Lucrezia thought
wistfully please let us in. Standing she left to go
help him the only way he would let her. Staring
sickened at his hands they were stained red with the
blood of enemies and allies alike and the ghost of his
Father would always follow him silently staring with
revulsion and disappointment. How can I add to that
the disgust of my sister by telling her I’m the one
responsible for all this?
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever, .....
There's no chance for us,
It's all decided for us,
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us.
**Flashback*
I can feel Noin’s fear and confusion it screams at me
no matter where I’m standing the shame and loathing
rose choking him. Milliardo looked up at Earth as he
felt a presence join him, how beautiful this world is
and how fragile. I’ll finish this insanity once and
for all and when it’s finished Noin and Relena can
live in a world free of death and destruction.
“ Zechs she said quietly, I wont try to stop you, just
let me stay by your side.” He sighed in resignation,
wanting to give her so much but unable to he was so
powerless to change his fate. How can I deny her this?
My beautiful Lucrezia she was always much more
stronger than I. “Then do as you desire,” he offered
as his gaze returned to Earth committing the view to
his memory before he prepared one last time to purge
himself and humanity for their sins.
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever, .....
Now touch my tears with your lips,
Touch my world with your fingertips,
And we can have forever,
And we can love forever,
Forever is ours today.
**Flashback
It’s a beautiful day once again I‘ve come. I don’t
feel you here. I refuse to believe you’re here. No
somewhere your alive I know it. I would know if you
weren’t alive a body couldn’t live without her heart.
Noin hesitated at the sight of Dorothy but then
continued, bending she laid the roses on Trieze grave.
“ You’re here again,” Noin said quietly. Looking
composed and unreachable, “ Yes but this is the last
time I think I’m tired of living in the past,”
Dorothy offered. “ Noin, why don’t you ever bring
flowers for Milliardo’s grave? ”
She smiled softly, “ I can’t because I know somewhere
out there he’s alive.”
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever, .....
Who waits forever anyway?
