Diclaimer: Inuyasha is not mine (DAMN!) niether is "Gollum's Song" which is where these lyrics are from.

Inuyasha's Song

Where once was

Now darkness falls

Blood thickly coated the ground around his chest, saturating his torn kimono. Inuyasha's eyes were growing dim as he lay there, his friends dead bodies sprawled around him. He clenched his eyes shut in pain, not wanting to face the sick realization of what had happened. He had defeated Naraku in a long and bloody battle, which cost him the lives of those he loved as well as mortally wounding him. Weakly, Inuyasha pulled himself to his feet, leaning heavily on Tetsusiaga for support. Too weak to hold his weight, his knees buckled beneath him as he collapsed to the ground in a bloody heap.

Where once was love

Love is no more

Kagome is dead. The sickening realization hit him as the pain tore through his body. The only person that he had every truly loved, the only person him loved him for who he is, is dead.She had died along side him in battle, her shrill and agonizing scream still ringing in his ears, and the vision of her limp body falling to the ground. Inuyasha really had nothing left to live for, everything he had ever loved was dead, lying sprawled around him; even Kikyo. There was no one left to love him anymore, no one left for him to love in return.

Don't say goodbye

Don't say you didn't try

"Wh-who?," Inuyasha called out weakly, sensing someone approaching but his vision was too blurry to see them. "You really are pathetic brother," Sesshomaru scoughed as he approached his brother's dying body. Even so, Inuyasha could hear the sadness and regret in his voice."You've given up on yourself! You pathetic half breed!," he snapped angrily, obviously not getting a response. He quietly sat down a few feet away from his brother, his cold amber eyes looking over the Hanyou's wounds. Sesshomaru couldn't believe his brother was throwing his life away like this. In fact, he refused to allow him to.

These tears we cry

Are falling rain

For all the lies you told us

The hurt, the blame!

Inuyasha didn't even try to fight the hot tears that sprung to his eyes. The pain was ravenging through his body as he slowly bled to death. To his surprise, Sesshomaru approached him and kneeled at his side. Even as his senses rapidly diminished, he could still smell the salty tears that were falling from the mighty Youkia's eyes. Inuyasha heard something rip before pressure was placed on the wound in his chest sending a flash of red hot agony through his entire body. "You better not give up on yourself," Sesshomaru said coldly, finally subduing his emotions. Inuyasha cried out in pain as his brother tightly wrapped the cloth around his chest. He again heard something rip before pressure was placed on the wound on his arm, or what remained of it. When Inuyasha battled with Naraku, his right arm was severed just a few inches below his shoulder. It was his most severe injury, causing him the most pain and greatest amount of blood loss.

And this hurt Sesshomaru the most, he knew what it felt like, he knew what Inuyasha was going through and he couldn't even imagine how hard it would be for a Hanyou.
"Inuyasha, I need you to hold on," Sesshomaru coached, watching as his brothers eyes started to slip shut. Inuyasha slowly opened his eyes again, and Sesshomaru could see the pain and weariness in his eyes. Sesshomaru lifted his brother into his arms and flew back to his own palace. Inuyasha moaned in pain as he landed at his front door. And we will weep to be so alone

We are lost

We can never go home

Ever since Rin and Jaken had died, Sesshomaru had lived alone. His own echoing footsteps haunting his mind. Pushing those thoughts away, Sesshomaru turn his focus back to his brother. Pushing the door open, he carried Inuyasha inside. The Hanyou was barely clinging to life; a life in which he really didn't want anymore. Sesshomaru was almost positive that Inuyasha would stay with him after he recovered; after all, this is the closest thing to a home that he has left. "Inuyasha, I'm going to lay you down," he warned before he stretched him out flat on the bed. Looking him over once more, Sesshomaru saw that the massive wound on his arm had already begun to bleed again.

Sesshomaru quickly grabbed some fresh bandages, tightly wrapping them around the stub of Inuyasha's right arm and up over his shoulder. Inuyasha again moaned in pain, his consciousness rapidly slipping away. He didn't even know that Sesshomaru was tending to his wounds anymore. He thought that he was alone.

So in the end

I'll be what I will be

No loyal friend

Was ever there for me

Solitude. Inuyasha still believed that he was all alone, and he thought that he was going to die alone. No one was there to comfort him in his final hour. That's when it hit him again, everyone was dead. A flash of searing pain caused his eyes to fly open. "Inuyasha, Inuyasha!," Sesshomaru yelled feeling his brothers heart coming to a halt. But Inuyasha had found what he needed. He knew now that he wasn't going to die alone.

Now we say goodbye

We say you didn't try

Inuyasha took one last shaky breath before he went limp. Sesshomaru let the tears fall, not even trying to fight them as they fell from his eyes. Inuyasha was thankful that his brother had been there for his final moments, but there was so much more Sesshomaru could have done. Sesshomaru sunk to his knees beside the bed, Inuyasha's death finally sinking in.

These tears you cry

Have come too late

Take back the lies

The hurt, the blame!

Sesshomaru knew his tears were futile. He should have treated his brother better before. It was too late to take back all of the things he had done to him Or was it? Sesshomaru was ripped from his reverie as Tenseiga began to pulse at his side. Inuyasha hadn't completely given up on his soul, and Sesshomaru was relieved. Fumbling with the hilt of his sword, Sesshomaru drew Tenseiga and swiped it over Inuyasha's still form. There was an eerie moment of silence as Sesshomaru held his breath, listening for his brothers heart to start beating again.

Relief washed over his elegant face as Inuyasha's began beating again. He quickly removed the old bandage that he had place over his chest wound and carefully replaced it with fresh ones. This caused Inuyasha to scream out in agony. Sesshomaru recoiled, taking a step back. Never before had he heard such an agonized cry come from the Hanyou, and it startled him. Having nothing else that he could do for him, Sesshomaru left the room and let him rest. Sighing to himself, he sunk into the stiff and wooden chair by his window. Gazing out into the frigid night, he was pulled out of his reverie by a wince of pain. It was Inuyasha; even before Sesshomaru walked into the room he could tell that the Hanyou had awoken.

INU'S POV

His was blurred as his mind swan. 'Where am I?' he asked himself, trying to sit up. A look of horror grace his flawless features as he remebered his arm was gone. "You need to rest Inuyasha," someone said as they approached. 'Who is it?' he asked him, his sense's were so foggy, he didn't even recognize Sesshomaru's voice.

ORIGINAL POV

"Where?......Who.... are you..?," Inuyasha asked, causing the Youkia to frown. Taking a step closer, Sesshomaru leaned closer to him so that he could see. "Sess......sesshomaru!?," he exclaimed weakly, not really believing what he was seeing.
