<Things we lost in the fire by Bastille>

"She's gone."

Upon hearing the news of his wife Clare dead, Will lost himself entirely. He could only feel the pain and remorse seeping through his body, spreading throughout his veins as every second ticked by.

"It was all my fault." He thought.

In a moment of anger, he said things he shouldn't have and all he was left with was these feelings of pain and remorse. How he wished he could sleep for eternity with his wife, but he knew he couldn't. He had to stay strong for the sake of his three-year-old daughter, Fay.

But he couldn't make up his mind and was now stuck between two options: Live or Die.
