I'm beaten down again
I belong to them
"That, Brambleclaw, is how you become leader," Tigerstar growled, "Don't you ever forget it,"
Hawkfrost smirked, throwing his brother a laughing glance.
"…" Brambleclaw gritted his teeth. Once again, Tigerstar had humiliated him with his fighting moves. He screwed his eyes shut. He desperately needed to prove himself to his father and brother...
"Brambleclaw! Wake up!" Squirrelflight mewed, flicking him with her tail, "You were talking in your sleep again, you stupid furball. What were you dreaming about?"
If I gave you the truth, would it keep you alive?
Though I'm closer to wrong
I'm no further from right
And now I'm, convinced on the inside that something's wrong with me
"Nothing," Brambleclaw lied. He couldn't tell her. The knowledge of his midnight visits with Tigerstar had already driven his sister away from him. Now it would drive away Squirrelflight.
He had just gotten her back from Ashfur. Many moons of being alone, of being jealous. For her to find out he was lying now wouldn't be any good at all.
No there's nothing you say that can salvage the lie
But I'm trying to keep my intentions disguised
And now I'm, deprived of my conscience and something's got to give
But one day, he was going to have to choose. Choose between Hawkfrost and Squirrelflight, a choice that had already cost him much pain. Why couldn't she accept that he cared for his brother?
Deep down, he knew who he would choose. He loved Squirrelflight, but his kin was important. Besides, Hawkfrost wasn't evil, was he?
I'm beaten down again, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
I'm weaker now my friend, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
"Brambleclaw, what is it?" Squirrelflight persisted, her ginger fur gleaming.
"It's nothing," Brambleclaw hissed icily, "Just leave it…"
Squirrelflight looked at him strangely, "What's gotten into you lately, Brambleclaw? Weird dreams, and acting all stuck-up. What about me?"
Brambleclaw cringed, "Squirrelflight…"
The deception you show is your own parasite
Just a word of advice you can heed if you like
And now I'm, convinced on the inside that something's wrong with me
Squirrelflight turned away, but Brambleclaw stopped her with his tail on his shoulder. He spoke silently, "I'm sorry…It really is nothing, I just don't want to drag you down with me…"
One day, he would have to make a choice. But hopefully not now. As Squirrelflight pressed herself into his fur, he realized that it wouldn't be an easy choice. He would have to make some changes.
For better or for worse.
I'm beaten down
I'm beaten down
I'm beaten down
I luff that song, seriously Hope you enjoyed!
