Summary: Sherlock keeps his secrets no matter how John re-imagines



The song that’s on right now reminds me of those last minutes.

You’re on the ledge of Bart’s telling me you’re all lies.

I’m on the street breathing uncomprehending into that mobile.

I could have said “No, I don’t hate you, Sherlock. I just want to save you while there’s still something left to save.”

That’s when you say “I love you, John, but I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have.”

This song ends.

Every song is about those last minutes, somehow.

But you keep your secrets in every lyrical rehashing.

And I still lose you.
