When
I was a young boy,
my Father took me into the city,
to see a marching band.
He
said "Son when, you grow up, would you be, the savior of the
broken, the beaten and the damned."
He
said "will you defeat them, your demons and all the
non-believers, the plans that they have made."
Because
one day I leave you,
A
phantom to lead you in the summer,
To
join the black parade."
When
I was a young boy,
My
father took me into the city

said, "Son when you grow up, would you be the saviour of the
broken, The beaten and the damned?"
Sometimes
I get the feeling she's watching over me.
And
other times I feel like I should go.
When
through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets.
And
when you're gone we want you all to know
We'll
Carry on,
We'll
Carry on
And
though your dead and gone believe me
Your
memory will carry on
Carry
on
We'll
carry on
And
in my heart I cant contain it
The
anthem wont explain it.
and
we will send you reeling from decimated dreams
Your
misery and hate will kill us all
So
paint it black and take it back
Lets
shout it loud and clear
do
you fight it to the end
we
hear the call
to
carry on
we'll
carry on
and
though your dead and gone believe me
Your
memory will carry on
we'll
carry on
and
though you're broken and defeated
you're
wiery widow marches on
and
on we carry through the fears
ooh
oh ohhhh
heres
the poignant faces of your peers
ooh
oh ohhhh
take
a look at me cause i could not care at all
do
or die
you'll
never make me
cause
the world, will never take my heart
you
can try, you'll never break me
we
want it all, i'm gonna play this part
wont
explain or say i'm sorry
im
not ashamed, i'm gonna show my scar
you're
the chair, for all the broken
lose
it here, because it's only..
i'm
just a man, i'm not a hero
just
a boy, whos meant to sing this song
just
a man, i'm not a hero
i,
don't, care
we'll
carry on
we'll
carry on
and
though your dead and gone believe me
Your
memory will carry on
we'll
carry on
and
though you're broken and defeated
you're
wiery widow marches on
we'll
carry on
we'll
carry on
we'll
carry on
we'll
carry
we'll
carry on
There was clapping and cheering as Yusuke finished his song.
" Thank you, thank you. You are too kind" he said, getting a laugh out of most of the people in the room. The Spirit Detectives just got done with another of there missions and are having a break. They decided that they would go out for pizza and karaoke. Pretty much everyone exept Hiei and Kurama has gone. Now, since Yusuke is done and they have never heard Hiei sing, they were trying to get him to go next. The only problem was that he really didn't want to go.
" Hiei, if you go up there and sing, I'll go after you." Kurama said, hoping to convince him to go. He knows he will have fun, once he got up there and started singing.
" No, I don't want to go. And what's so special about you singing for us here? You sing in front of me all the time when we're at home" was Hiei's comeback. Yes, a few months ago Hiei moved in with Kurama. They haven't gone very far in there relationship though. They want to wait until they were both ready.
" Because Hiei, I wrote the song I want to sing for you." Kurama said, looking Hiei strait in the eye. Hiei looked at him for a few minutes, trying to look away but unable to. Hiei sighed and gave up. He never was able to say no to his fox, especially when he gave him that look. He finally said...
" Fine, I'll go. But you better go after me."
Kurama just smiled and gave him a little push as he was going up to the stage (he was going incredibly slow). Hiei gave him an annoyed look as he took his position in front of the stage, hand on the mike. He never could glare at him either. He cleared his throat and began in a soft, deep, sexy voice.
I
can't escape this hell
So
many times i've tried
But
i'm still caged inside
Somebody
get me through this nightmare
I
can't control myself
So
what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No
one will ever change this animal I have become
Help
me believe it's not the real me
Somebody
help me tame this animal
(This
animal, this animal)
I
can't escape myself
(I
can't escape myself)
So
many times i've lied
(So
many times i've lied)
But
there's still rage inside
Somebody
get me through this nightmare
I
can't control myself
So
what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No
one will ever change this animal I have become
Help
me believe it's not the real me
Somebody
help me tame this animal I have become
Help
me believe it's not the real me
Somebody
help me tame this animal
Somebody
help me through this nightmare
I
can't control myself
Somebody
wake me from this nightmare
I
can't escape this hell
(This
animal, this animal, this animal, this animal, this animal, this
animal, this animal)
So
what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No
one will ever change this animal I have become
Help
me believe it's not the real me
Somebody
help me tame this animal I have become
Help
me believe it's not the real me
Somebody
help me tame this animal
(This
animal I have become)
Everyone clapped for Hiei too as he blushed slightly and got off stage. He came over to Kurama, who was smiling.
" Hiei, I never knew you were such a good singer." said Kurama.
" Just shut up and get up there Fox, we had a deal." Hiei said as he pushed Kurama over to the stage. Kurama took Hiei's previous position behind the mike.
" OK, now tell us what the song is called and who it was written for. You told us that you wrote it and only Hiei caught the part about who it was written for." Yusuke told the kitsune. He nodded and spoke, kinda shy and a little embarrassed about all the people staring at him.
" Well, the song is called Swing Swing and I wrote it for Hiei" Kurama said. Everyone exept Hiei, of coarse, were suprised about that. They don't know about Kurama and Hiei getting together yet. They all decided to ask about that later because the song was starting. Kurama had given the DJ a CD with just the instruments that he wrote with the help of a few of his friends ( Alanna and Thom, there so cool! ). Kurama had his eyes closed and was nodding his head slightly to the music as he waited for the moment for him to start singing. When the moment came, he opened his eyes , looking at his small audience and started singing.
Days
swiftly come and go.
I'm
dreaming of her
She's
seeing other guys
Emotions
they stir
The
sun is gone.
The
nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall
Hiei now realised what was so important in the song that he had to sing it here. If they were alone at the house, he would have never got up the courage to even so much as mention it. He had to do it here with everybody else supporting him so he could go through with the whole thing.
Did
you think that I would cry,
on
the phone?
Do
you know what it feels like,
being
alone?
I'll
find someone new
Kurama was so nervous but he kept going. I hope I'm not going to regret this later, he thought as he got to the first chorus. Kami, wish me luck, I'll need it.
(Swing)
Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My
heart is crushed by a former love
Can
you help me find a way
To
carry on again.
Hiei smiled as he listened to the chorus. Of coarse I'll help you, silly Fox, he thought to himself. I'll alway's be there to help you, no matter what.
Wish
cast into the sky
I'm
moving on
Sweet
beginnings do arise
She
knows I was wrong
The
notes are old,
They
bend, they fold
and so do I to a new love.
Kurama started to really get into the song, pouring his heart out for the world to see. He even shed a few tears, not even noticable as they never hit his cheek. But that was nothing compared to what was coming next.

Hiei noticed that Kurama cried as he was singing, he was the only one that noticed. He understood. It's normal that he is emotional over this. I know you can do it Kurama. Put this in the past, no more pain will you ever have to suffer again on her account.
(Swing)
Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My
heart is crushed by a former love
Can
you help me find a way
To
carry on again
Here, as he was getting to the last verse, Kurama started to down right cry, he was putting so much emotion into the song. It didn't effect his singing, of coarse, the crying was silent. Kurama didn't even notice them. He just kept singing.
Bury
me
(you
thought your problems were gone)
Carry
me
(away.
away, away...)
At this point, Hiei wanted to cry. He felt all the pain coming from Kurama and what this was doing to him. But he had to do it. Had to get this in the past, where it belongs. Do not cry, do not cry, do not cry. Especially in front of the humans. Hiei thought silently to himself. Dammit, he thought as he heard his second tear gem fall to the hard wood floor. He gave his first one to Kurama, who was wearing said item around his neck under his shirt. It wasn't so bad crying though. Everyone else was, and a lot more than he.
(Swing)
Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My
heart is crushed by a former love
Can
you help me find a way
To carry on again
And Hiei couldn't be more right. Everyone was teary-eyed, even the ones working there and they have heard a lot of talented singers in the pizza place.
(Swing)
Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My
heart is crushed by a former love
Can
you help me find a way
To carry on again
Among the crying visitors was none other than Maya. She came to pick up a pizza with a friend of hers and saw him onstage, singing. She was so sad that she hurt him so much yet so happy that it sounded like he found someone to help him heal. She decided to finish listening to the song with her friend then leave right after so as not to bring up more hurtful memories.

Kurama stayed up there until the music faded away, then he got off the stage and went over to Hiei. Hiei gave him a much needed hug and led him out of the pizza place to there home, with his arm around the redheads waist. The people moved for them. When they were gone, Genkai noticed something spakling in the lighting on the floor. She picked up Hiei's teargem and decided to give it to him tomarrow. Kurama needs him right now.
Genkai smiled as she thought of the redhead. From the slight smile on the boy face before he left, she'd say thing's are going to be much better from now on.
