**Once again, I don't own anything, not Firefly, not 'Serenity' by Godsmack *This may make no sense, but it takes place after Objects in Space, and it's Simon thinking(if you can't tell). Oh, and the quote at the end is from Objects in Space, It may not be right, but I couldn't find it anywhere, so it came from the top of my head and my memory. [blah]:song lyrics

On with the story!

[As I sit here and slowly close my eyes] It was almost lights out

[I take another deep breath] He'd given her her medicine

[And feel the wind pass through my body] It'd probably be working it's way though her body now

[I'm the one in your soul] She'd be sleeping now

[Reflecting the light] Lights go out

[Protect the ones who hold you] She'd just been protecting them

[Cradling your inner child] She was just a child still, why should she hurt anyone?

[I need serenity] 'Serenity' , how hypocritical a name

[In a place where I can hide] Their hiding place, home now

[I need serenity] They needed this place 'Serenity'

[Nothing changes, days go by] Everyday, the one thing that didn't change

[Where do we go when we just don't know] Where else would they go?

[And how do we relight the flame when it's cold] And who would help them anyways?

[Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing] Will the nightmares ever go away for his sister?

[And when will we learn to control] Why did they take the control from her?

[Tragic visions slowly stole my life] THEY stole their lives

[Tore away everything] Took everything away

[Cheating me out of my time] Cheated her out of her life

[I'm the one who loves you] Could he have stopped THEM before they got to her?

[No matter wrong or right] Why was she doing the things she did?

[And every day I hold you] It didn't matter

[I hold you with my inner child] She was his little sister, he had to help her...

[It's serenity] Maybe find her own serenity

[In a place where I can hide] Find a way to help her out of hiding

[I need serenity] She needed this place

[Nothing changes, days go by] Everyday, the thing that didn't change

[Where do we go when we just don't know] Where else would she go?

[And how do we relight the flame when it's cold] Who else would help her?

[Why do we dream when I thought mean nothing] Why won't the nightmares go away?

[And when will we learn to control] When will she get control back?

[Where do we go when we just don't know] Where else would he go?

[And how do we relight the flame when it's cold] Who else would take him in?

[Why do we dream when I thought mean nothing] Why couldn't HE make the nightmares go away?

[And when will we learn to control] Can he help her get control?

[I need serenity] She needs this place

[I need serenity] He needs this place

[I need serenity] They need this place

'Serenity'...what a hypocritical name...

"She loves this ship, it's more of a home to her than any other place she's been"
