Note: My thoughts of what Buffy and Spike were thinking at the end of 'Seeing Red'.
First of three POV set to music by Creed; they can stand alone but are best read together.
Wash Away Those Years
She came calling
One early morning
She showed her crown of thorns
"Death is your gift." The voice of the First Slayer echoed in her head.
She whispered softly
To tell a story
About how she had been wronged
First Angel, then Riley now Spike, why?
As she lay lifeless
He stole her innocence
And this is how she carried on
Three loves, three lovers, now gone
Well I guess she closed her eyes
And just imagined everything's alright
But she could not hide her tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
I drove all of them away.
"There's nothing good or clean in you, you're dead inside" her own words stung.
My anger's violent
But still I'm silent
When tragedy strikes at home
I know this decadence
Is shared by millions
Remember you're not alone
(Remember you're not alone)
"You always hurt the one you love."
Why Spike? Why did you do this?
Well I guess she closed her eyes
And just imagined everything's alright
But she could not hide her tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
For we have crossed many oceans
And we labor in between
In life there are many quotients
And I hope I find the mean (the mean……the mean)
We're been throw so much, I thought you understood.
Why….Why couldn't you just wait a little while longer?
Well I guess she closed her eyes
And just imagined everything's alright
But she could not hide her tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
(Maybe we can wash away those years.
I'm hoping you could wash away those years)
Where do we go from here?
