When You Can't Sleep At Night [Austin Carlile]
The Great Hendowski
(Warning: there maybe songs by other bands/artists. But in this story if I have Delialah's band play it then it's their song. Unless I say it's a cover)
~Delilah's POV~
"You're on in 10 minutes!" A tech guy yelled to all of us. I looked at Zander. He gave me a smile.
"You'll do great," he told me and pulled me into a hug. "You always do.
Next thing I know Ryder, Seth, Zander, and Ryan are running onstage. I wait until the beat to Far From Never (by The Pretty Reckless in real life) started to play, then ran onstage. The crowd went wild. I just smiled and started to sing.
I know I fucked up this time
Just give me one more try
I know you've made up your mind
So leave me here behind you
And all the things you said
Made it harder to breathe
When I was lying on the floor
I couldn't believe you wouldn't save me
But you blame me
You cried, the fire just died
It's gone forever
And the chance to live our lives
It's gone forever
And where we stand tonight
It's where we stand tonight
So far from never
I know I messed with your mind
And wasted all your precious time
The more I try, the more I find that
All the things you've said
Made it harder to breathe
When I was lying on the floor
I couldn't believe you wouldn't save me
But you blame me
You cried, the fire just died
It's gone forever
And the chance to live our lives
It's gone forever
And where we stand tonight
It's where we stand tonight
So far from never
No one will never let you down
No one will never let you down
No one will never let you down
No one will never let you down
Cause the fire just died
It's gone forever
And the chance to live our lives
It's gone forever
And where we stand tonight
It's where we stand tonight
So far from never
So far from never
You said you'd never let me down
You said you'd never let me down
By the end of the song, the crowd was jumping. I could keep the smile of my face.
45 MINUTES LATER
"Thank you Salt Lake City!" i yelled into the mic. "You are absolutely amazing!"
Then I ran off stage. The other followed me. I sat my mic on a nearby amp.
"You did great!" My dad said, happily as he approached us. He came up and hugged me.
"Thanks, daddy" I said as I hugged him back. I may be 24, but I'm still a daddy's girl.
When I pulled away, he went and hugged the rest of the band.
"So how was the first set at Warped Tour?" he asked all of us.
A answer of "amazing", "sick", and "awesome" came from us.
"Good," my dad said with a smile. "'Cause there is going to be plenty more."
"Well I don't know about you guys but I'm going to go watch other sets," I said and started to walk off. Then Zander, Ryder, Seth, and Ryan were at my side.
"We are coming with," Ryder said as we walked away from our stage. On the way to the Bring Me The Horizon set, people stopped us and asked for pictures and autographs.
