Like I'm Gonna Lose You (Kalijah)
*American Gothic*
I found myself dreaming
In silver and gold
Like a scene from a movie
That every broken heart knows
We were walking on moonlight
And you pulled me close
Split second and you disappeared
And then I was all alone
Woke up in tears
With you by my side
Breath of relief
And I realized
No, we're not promised tomorrow
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
She and Elijah stood in front of each other at the Mikaelson place in Mystic Falls. He'd just told her that he was leaving town.
He rested a hand on the side of her face and she pleaded for him to stay, saying, "It's our turn, Elijah. Please."
"Katerina." For a moment, he looked at her. Then he kissed her on the forehead. "Goodbye, Katerina." Then he was gone.
I'm gonna hold you
Like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when
When we'll run out of time
So I'm gonna love
Like I'm gonna lose you
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
It was a dismal night, as she stood in front of him in Pennsylvania.
"What do you want?" he questioned.
"To tell you that you're right. I've spent so much time running and lying just to survive, I—I'm starting to believe my own lies. I don't even remember who I was when we first met. And I want to find out."
"How do I know this isn't another lie? Katherine Pierce deceiving yet another man?"
"Because I meant what I said about my feelings for you. And I'd like to think that you feel something for me, too."
In the blink of an eye
Just a whisper of smoke
You could lose everything
The truth is you never know
So I'll kiss you longer baby
Any chance that I get
And I'll make the most out of the minutes
And love with no regrets
Let's take our time
To say what we want
Use what we got
Before it's all gone
'Cause no
We're not promised tomorrow
It was a beautiful day, as they stood in front of each other in a Pennsylvania alleyway.
"Is that what I am to you? A means of survival?" he accused her.
"No. Of course, you're not a means of survival. You looked out for me, when I had no one. You've given me a second chance now, when no one else will. I love you." She rested a hand on the side of his face. "Elijah."
He turned his face away, and she dropped her hand.
"You don't believe me."
"I want to. It's my disease. I just keep wanting to believe you, but how can I when, at every turn, you give me a reason to doubt you? I don't know you. I don't think I ever will."
He began to walk away.
She watched for a moment, before catching up with him, and put a hand on his arm.
He looked at her hand on his arm, then her, then her arm, and then her again.
She let go, getting the hint.
"Goodbye, Katherine."
She watched, as he walked away
*500 Years of Solitude*
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna hold you
Like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when
When we'll run out of time
It was a dark night, as the doctors tried to revive her at the hospital. She'd been found at the bottom of the stairs and brought in, after she'd had a heart attack.
Twenty minutes later, she was finally revived, and they put her on bedrest. The doctors didn't think she'd live the rest of the night.
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
And I'm gonna hold you
Like I'm saying goodbye
It was a beautiful day, as she lay in bed at the Salvatore boarding house, on bedrest. She was resting, but then felt someone sit on her bedside. Curious as to who would come see her on her deathbed, she looked, only to see that it was Elijah.
He gave a smile, and she smiled back.
"You're here," she greeted.
She rested a hand on the side of his face.
"Katerina," he greeted back. There wasn't much to say, since she was dying, and they hadn't seen each other since she'd watched him walk away. She understood though, he knew. She knew that family came first to him. Just because he left, didn't mean he didn't still love her. He hated to see her dying, but that was the curse of being a vampire. Outliving someone you love that's not a vampire. She was a vampire, but her anger had gotten her into this situation, when she'd tried to kill Elena. Elena had shoved the cure down her throat, since she didn't want to die. "Close your eyes," he told her.
"But I want to see you," she said, her hand now off his face and back on the bed.
"You will," he assured her.
She closed her eyes and he went inside her head, giving her a peaceful dream world.
*1492/Dream World*
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when
When we'll run out of time
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
It was a beautiful day, as they played chase with each other.
"You're meant to catch me," she said with a laugh and a smile.
"But if I catch you, then the game will be over," he replied to her.
They went to sit on the bench next to each other, and she spoke of love.
"True love is not real, unless it is returned. Do you agree?" she said.
"I do not believe in love, Katerina."
"That is too sad for me to accept, my Lord. If we cease to believe in love, then why would we want to live?" she replied.
When he gave her a peaceful dream world, it was the moment in 1492 that they had connected, even though he hadn't wanted to connect with her, but had fallen for her from that moment on.
They shared a moment and kissed.

Because You Loved Me (Kalijah)
*Pennsylvania*
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through it all
It was a beautiful day, as Katherine stood in front of Elijah.
"Is that what I am to you? A means of survival?" he accused.
"No. Of course, you're not a means of survival. You looked out for me, when I had no one. You've given me a second chance now, when no one else will." She rested a hand on the side of his face. "I love you. Elijah."
*New York-1525*
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
After realizing that she was in danger and had found out where, he'd entered the abandoned warehouse and slaughtered the vampires who'd wished to, and had harmed her.
Afterward, he blurred to her side and pulled out the stake, once knelt by her, and with her against him, he bit his wrist to save her, since she was almost fully desiccated.
He put his wrist to her lips, making it go down her throat, saving her life.
*Pennsylvania*
You gave my wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
It was a beautiful day, as Elijah spoke on the phone. Stefan had said that Rebekah had joined the good guys. After Elijah told him how much she despised Katherine, Elijah gave a threat to him.
"If anything whatsoever happens to Katerina, I will descend upon Elena."
*500 Years of Solitude*
You were my strength when I was weak

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
It was a dismal night, as the doctors tried to revive her. She'd just had a heart attack tonight at the boarding house.
As the doctors tried their best, Caroline, having a good heart and knowing how much she meant to Elijah, called him and explained what he'd missed, and what had happened.
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
After she was revived and he'd gotten to town and the hospital, he sat on her bedside, knowing that he couldn't save her. She was dying and he couldn't heal her. The one person he knew he should be able to save, he couldn't. All he could do was to stay with her until the end, and try to give her peace.
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life

Say Something, I'm Giving Up On You (Kalijah)
A/N: Based on "Say Something, I'm Giving Up On You," since it's perfect for them, considering Elijah technically gave up on her.
Say something
I'm giving up on you...
*Pennsylvania-Daylight*
Katherine and Elijah stood in front of each other, as they half talked, half argued.
"Is that what I am to you? A means of survival?" he questioned.
"Of course, you're not a means of survival. You looked out for me, when I had no one. You've given me a second chance now, when no one else will." She rested a gentle hand on the side of his face and looked up at him. "I love you." She dropped her hand, when he turned his face away. "You don't believe me."
"I want to, but how can I when, at every turn, you give me a reason to doubt you?"
He turned around and started to walk away.
"Wait," she said.
"Goodbye, Katherine," he said.
*Pennsylvania-Night*
Elijah was walking down the sidewalk, but stopped when Katherine walked over to him, purse slung over her shoulder.
"Elijah," she said.
"What do you want?" he asked.
"To tell you that you're right. I've ran for so long just to survive...I—I'm starting to believe my own lies. I don't even remember who I was when we first met. And I wanna find out."
"I only hope you can find a way back to yourself one day," he replied.
She took his hand, holding out, and set the vial of the cure in his hand, and closed his hand. She still held onto his hand, though.
She looked at him.
"I want you to trust me, just like I'm trusting you. I'm going to let you decide where we go from here." She let go. "You don't owe me anything."
She turned around and walked away.
I'll be the one
If you want me to
Anywhere
I would've followed you...
*Mikaelson Mansion-Mystic Falls*
It was a dark night, as Katherine looked up at Elijah after he had told her that he was leaving to go help Klaus in New Orleans, technically breaking up with her.
"It's our turn, Elijah. Please," she begged him, trying to get him to stay.
He kissed her on the forehead.
"Goodbye, Katerina."
A moment later, he vanished.
Say something
I'm giving up on you...
*For Whom The Bell Tolls*
It was a dark night, as Katherine sat on a cement bench in the woods, absolutely devastated that she was dying of old age. Wes Maxfield had given her an x-ray, looked at it, and told her that she was dying of old age. He had given her six months to live. Just when she got a part of her life back, Nadia, something had to happen. She couldn't help but let the tears fall. Killing yourself when you had no one was one story, but dying unwillingly when you had a daughter to connect with after 500 years was a different story.
She picked up her phone, knowing one person who would always come to her rescue and, if need be, comfort her. He was in New Orleans, but she needed him now, more than ever.
As she waited for him to pick up, she hoped he would come to her aid.
"Katerina," he answered.
She couldn't stop her voice from breaking.
"I screwed up. Now I'm human. I'm dying, Elijah. I need your help."
He had never heard her so broken in all the 500 years that he had known her. He never saw her as someone to cry at all, either. She had always been strong, but now she wasn't. He couldn't blame her for breaking down. He hated that she was dying, but he was happy that she was human. Maybe the Katerina he had fallen in love with all those years ago would finally surface. One could only hope.
"I'm busy right now, but I promise that I will come as soon as I have a chance to leave," he replied. He just hoped that it wouldn't be too late by then.
"Thank you," was all she could think to say.
They hung up and she put her phone away.
And I
I'm feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all...
*Fifty Shades of Grayson*
It was a dark night, as she walked down the stairs at the Salvatore boarding house, on the phone with Elijah who had called to say that he was on his way and to ask her how she was doing.
Suddenly, a sharp pain started up her left arm and traveled to the left side of her chest. She put a hand over the left side of her chest. Her phone fell from her hand, as it began to feel as if she couldn't breathe.
"Katerina?" he said, afraid that he was going to be too late.
As he listened with vampire hearing, his hope shattered, as he heard her heart slowing.
A moment later, he heard what sounded like her tumbling down a set of stairs. Then there was silence.
He hung up and raced the rest of the distance to get to her.
And I
Will stumble and fall
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl...
*500 Years of Solitude*
Katherine lay in bed that night, weak, knowing that she was going to die sonner rather than later. Despite that, she was happy. Elijah was there and that's all she wanted.
She smiled at him from where he was seated on her bedside.
"Close your eyes, Katerina."
"I want to see you," she protested.
"You will," he assured her.
She closed her eyes and he went inside her head, giving her their happiest moment. It was England 1492 when they had played chase and had had a heart to heart about love.
When her heart and breathing stopped, he came out of her head and kissed her forehead.
Say something
I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere
I would've followed you
Say something
I'm giving up on you
And I
Will swallow my pride
You're the one I love
And I'm saying goodbye
Say something
I'm giving up on you...
In the end, he lost his Katerina but he realized, just a little too late, that he had been wrong not to stay with her. If she had lived, he would've given her another chance, because Katerina was worth saving, no matter what the cost.
Say something
I'm giving up on you...

When her heart and breathing stopped, he came out of her head and kissed her forehead.
Say something
I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere
I would've followed you
Say something
I'm giving up on you
And I
Will swallow my pride
You're the one I love
And I'm saying goodbye
Say something
I'm giving up on you...
In the end, he lost his Katerina but he realized, just a little too late, that he had been wrong not to stay with her. If she had lived, he would've given her another chance, because Katerina was worth saving, no matter what the cost.
I Don't Deserve You (Kalijah)
*Dead Man On Campus*
You're the first face that I see
And the last thing I think about
You're the reason that I'm alive
You're what I can't live without
You're what I can't live without
And you never give up
When I'm falling apart
Your arms are always open wide
And you're quick to forgive
When I make a mistake
You love me in the blink of an eye
It was a dismal night, as Katherine stood on the clock tower, facing the clock, ready to commit suicide, so she didn't have to live through the pain of dying of old age. She was ready to die, unlike the first time she'd been human.
She closed her eyes and stepped off, not knowing that Elijah was coming back for her.
When he saw her falling from the clock tower, he blurred over and caught her from hitting the sidewalk.
When she felt herself be caught, she was curious as to who, out of all people who hated her, had stopped her from killing herself, so she opened her eyes, only to see Elijah. He was back, which was a surprise to her.
He set her on her feet and looked at her.
"Katerina," he greeted, not needing to ask her why she'd tried to kill herself. He knew that she was dying of old age, and knew that she was bound to try and kill herself. He knew it was because she didn't want to be in pain. He understood that and her. He'd known her for 500 years, and no matter what, loved her unconditionally, even though he'd left her to help Klaus in New Orleans six months ago.
"What are you doing here, Elijah?" she questioned, acting as if she didn't want him to be back.
"I came to help you. I heard what happened," he replied. "Just because I left, doesn't mean I don't care about or love you."
She was silent at that. She couldn't deny that she liked what he'd said, because she still loved him, too.
She put gentle hands around his neck and gave a smile.
"I love you, too," she replied, before they kissed.
*American Gothic*
I don't deserve your love
But you give it to me anyway
Can't get enough
You're everything I need
And when I walk away
You take off running and come right after me
It's what you do
And I don't deserve you
It was a beautiful day in an alleyway after they'd argued and he had started to leave, as Katherine walked up behind him and put a hand on his arm, stopping him.
"Wait."
He stopped and looked at her, before looking at her hand on his arm.
She took her hand off and he looked at her again, before saying, "Goodbye, Katherine." Then he left, leaving her standing there alone.
That night, she walked up to him on the street, stopping him from going any further, when she stood in front of him.
"What do you want?" he asked, as if he wasn't interested in what she had to say.
"To tell you that you're right. I've spent so much time running and lying just to survive, I don't—I'm starting to believe my own lies. I don't even remember who I was when we first met. And I want to find out." She took a black box out of her purse.
"You have the cure," he stated.
"Yes. And I can shove this down Klaus' throat and try to kill him, but even if I managed to do it, I'd lose you. And I don't want that to happen." She took his hand, palm up, and set it in his hand, before closing his hand. She still held his hand, though. "I need you to trust me. I want you to trust me. Just like I'm trusting you." She let go of his hand and adjusted her purse that was slung over her shoulder. "You don't owe me anything. I'm going to let you decide where we go from here."
He watched silently, as she walked away, before looking down at the cure for vampirism in his hand.
*Fifty Shades of Grayson*
You're the light inside my eyes
Give me a reason to keep trying
Give me more than I could dream
And you bring me to my knees
You bring me to my knees
Your heart is gold and how am I the one
That you've chosen to love?
It was a dismal night, as Katherine walked down the stairs with a duffel bag and her purse, talking on the phone, letting Elijah know that she had decided to try and find a way to be saved. At first, because everyone in town hated her, she had wanted to just wait to die. Since Elijah had expressed how much he loved her and didn't want to lose her though, she had changed her mind.
*Graduation*
I still can't believe that you're right next to me
After all that I've done
I don't deserve your love
But you give it to me anyway
Can't get enough
You're everything I need
And when I walk away
You take off running and come right after me
It's what you do
And I don't deserve you
It was a dark night, as Katherine ambushed Elena in the school hallway, throwing her against a set of lockers.
"Happy graduation, cupcake."
Elena got up and through a locker door at her, but Katherine avoided it and grabbed the wooden part of an abandoned mop in the hallway, breaking the wood part in half. She approached and started hitting her every few minutes on the back with it, as Elena started to crawl away from her.
When Elena was on her back and Katherine was digging into her neck with the wooden stick from the mop, Elena thought fast, not wanting to die.
As Katherine pulled the stick out and was about to strike towards her heart and said, "Bye, bye, little girl," Elena shoved the cure down her throat, which made her black out and become human.
"Have a nice human life, Katherine," she said.
*500 Years Of Solitude*

You're what I can't live without
And you never give up
It was a beautiful day, as she lay in bed, dying of old age, hair gray, and wrinkles showing. As she lay there, Elijah came in and sat on her bedside to be with her in her last moments, just in case the witch he'd assigned to save her life didn't succeed. No matter what, he wasn't going to leave her side. He wouldn't let her die alone.
She gave a smile, as he sat down on her bedside.
He smiled back, although it hurt him to see her like this.
*Gone Girl*
When I'm falling apart

After Elijah's witch had succeeded in saving her life, Nadia told her at a restaurant one day that Tyler had bitten her. Nadia knew that Klaus' blood was the cure and Katherine wanted to save her, but was afraid of what Klaus would say when she asked. Because Nadia knew how much her mother had suffered because of Klaus, she didn't want the cure. All she wanted was for her mother to be happy.
In the end, Katherine had to watch her long-lost daughter die and desiccate from the bite. It broke her heart into a million pieces.
As she fell to her knees by the couch in overwhelming grief and cried, Elijah came up behind her to kneel by her. When he did, she put her arms around his neck and cried into his shoulder, accepting what comfort he could give her.
He put arms around her in comfort, silent, letting her cry, not having anything to say. There was nothing to say that would make her feel better. He knew only time would heal.

Down (Kalijah)
*Monster’s Ball*
I don’t know where I’m at
I’m standing out the back
And I’m tired of waiting
Waiting here in line
Hoping that I’ll fine
What I’ve been chasing
It was a nebulous night in an alley, as she stood not far from the vampiress after finding her after she’d grazed the vampire’s heart that day, thinking she was the enemy.
“Who are you?” Katherine asked her.
“My name is Nadia Petrova and you are my mother,” she said.
Katherine looked at her silently, shocked that somehow, fate had intervened and brought her daughter back to her.
*I Know What You Did Last Summer*
I shot for the sky
I’m suck on the ground
So why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall down
I thought I could fly?
So why did I drown?
It was a dismal night, as Katherine sat in the driver’s seat, injured after the car crashing into a streetlight pole. She’d been trying to get away from Mystic Falls so that Silas couldn’t get to her, but had managed to crash a car that she’d stolen from a road.
Meanwhile, Elijah Mikaelson had just arrived back in town to check up on his Katerina. He’d ignored several of her calls this summer and recently, not wanting to speak to her or see her. She hadn’t left any messages, but now that she hadn’t been answering her phone when he called back, he was worried and had the feeling that something had or was about to happen. If something ever happened to her after he’d left her to fend for herself, he’d never forgive himself. She was his world and he loved her for who she was, no matter what. If she died while he was in New Orleans, he didn’t know what pieces of him would still be intact, if any would be left. It would shatter him into a million pieces if she were dead. Despite everything she’d done, he loved her. He loved both the good and bad parts of her, just as she did with him.
Half an hour later, once on a desolate street, he saw a wrecked car that had crashed into a street light pole. He saw that there was still someone inside, but not moving. Due to smelling the mixed scents of human, blood, and Katerina, he knew who it was.
No, he thought to himself.
He vamp-sped to the driver’s side and forced the crinkled, dented, and jammed door open. He assessed her condition with his eyes and saw that there was blood on either side of her head, some scrapes and scratches, and her lower stomach was bleeding from a shard of glass protruding from it. He pulled the shard of glass out and tossed it on the floorboard, before gently resting his hands on either side of her head.
“Katerina, can you hear me?” he called to her, not knowing how she was human or if she could digest vampire blood.
Hearing a familiar voice through the darkness that surrounded her, she fought against the darkness and when she woke up a few minutes later, she was met with Elijah’s worried face.
“Elijah?” she questioned weakly, very weak from blood loss.
“I came back to check on you, since you weren’t answering my calls back. I’m glad I did. Can you digest vampire blood?” he replied.
“I don’t know. Elena shoved the cure down my throat shortly after you left me, since I was upset and took it out on her and tried to kill her.”
He wasn’t happy that she’d tried to kill Elena, nor was he happy that Elena had shoved the cure down her throat, but he didn’t show it.
As he gently slid an arm under her legs and his other under her, she began to go under.
“You’re going to be okay, Katerina. Just stay with me. I’ll protect you, but you have to fight for me,” was the last thing she heard, before she plummeted back into the darkness.
Elijah gently pulled her out of the wreckage and picked her gently up in his arms, before blurring towards the Mystic Falls hospital.
After pacing in the waiting room for a few hours, a doctor finally came in to tell him that the surgery went great and she was in a recovery room, but she had a concussion, so it could be a day or so before she woke up. He thanked her and went to her room to stay with her. He knew Katerina. She was a fighter. It wouldn’t take too long for her to wake up. He figured anyway. He could only hope that the odds were in their favor.
The next afternoon, when she woke up, he gave a smile, knowing that she’d be okay. He could only hope, anyway. The cure had been shoved down her throat. Since it had never been taken before, they didn’t know if there were any side effects to it.
She smiled back.
“You saved my life. Thank you.”
“I will always save you, Katerina, no matter what,” he replied.
A moment later, they kissed.
*500 Years of Solitude*
You never know why
It’s coming down, down, down
Not ready to let go
‘Cause then I’ll never know
What I could be missing
But I’m missing way too much
When do I give up
What I’ve been wishing for?
It was a beautiful day at the Mikaelson mansion, as she lay in bed. She’d had a heart attack last night and now she was on bed rest until the very end, Nadia at her side. Nadia wanted her to live instead of letting herself die, but she had just found her weeks ago. She didn’t want to do that to her. She didn’t want to lose her, so she was choosing death.
After hours had passed, Elijah came to her bedside with a way to save her. He had a witch in New Orleans doing a spell that would reverse the dying of old age at a rapid pace side effect of the cure.
So, after the spell had been finished, she was a healthy human again.
*Fifty Shades of Grayson*
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
So why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall down

So why did I drown?
You never know why
It’s coming down, down, down
Oh, I’m going down, down, down
It was a dismal night at the Mikaelson mansion, as Katherine went downstairs for a drink, Nadia in the parlor.
Once she’d cleared the stairs, she stopped, a hand on the left side of her chest, pain having travelled up her arm and all the way to her chest. It was like she couldn’t breathe. Then everything went black and she collapsed.
When Nadia heard a noise, she went to investigate and found her on the floor.
When she knelt by her, she realized that she’d had a heart attack. So, after getting her to the hospital, she told Elijah on the phone, who then said he’d be there as soon as he could.
*Dead Man On Campus*
I can’t find another way around
And I don’t wanna hear the sound
Of losing what I’ve never found
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
So why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall down
I thought I could fly
So why did I drown?
I’ll never know why
It’s coming down, down, down
It was a nebulous night, as Katherine closed her eyes, ready to end her suffering of dying of old age, not wanting to go through all of that. She’d been told by an expert on vampires that she can’t be fixed. She was aging and it couldn’t be helped. She then stepped off.
As she fell to the ground below, she hoped Nadia and Elijah would forgive her.
When she felt like someone had caught her, she opened her eyes to see Elijah.
He set her on her feet.
“What are you doing, Katerina?” he asked of her.
She knew he meant to be asking why she would be committing suicide, when he was here for her.
“Because I’m dying of old age and it can’t be stopped. I went to an expert. I don’t want the pain of dying of old age,” she explained.
“I promise you, Katerina, we will find a way. We always do,” he replied.
“Then save me,” she said.
“You know I will,” he replied.
*No Exit*
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
So why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall
I thought I could fly
So why did I drown?
Oh, it’s coming down, down, down
After Nadia died of Tyler’s bite at the Mikaelson mansion because she didn’t want Katherine to have to sacrifice anything for Klaus to cure her, all Katherine could do now was to sit by the bed on the floor and cry. Elijah was there, but all he could do was hug her in comfort. There were no words to say.
I don’t know where I’m at
I’m standing out the back
And I’m tired of waiting
Waiting here in line
Hoping that I’ll fine

“Then save me,” she said.
“You know I will,” he replied.

I thought I could fly
So why did I drown?
Oh, it’s coming down, down, down
