Yes, another songfic. I can't help it. I've written one, and now I can't stop!! SAVE ME!! Lol. Anyway, I hope you guys don't hate them, because I LOVE crying my eyes out while I write them. Please review, but no flames. Thanks. ^_^
Disclaimer: The song belongs to Evanescence, and the characters aren't mine either.
This song really has nothing to do with any of the fics I have now. I don't think anyway. But I was looking for lyrics for a different Evanescence song because I couldn't figure out what they were saying, and this one came up. I read it, got the song, and was like WOW! That's Vincent. So, here it is!
Song: Away From Me, by Evanescence (sorry if you don't like band, but I hope you still like this fic. I think its good, but I could be biased!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vincent is alone, standing on a balcony on a cool night, the breeze lifting his ebony hair and crimson cloak.
I hold my breath as this life
starts to take its toll
I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds
He holds the knife, cold steal glinting the moonlight, against his wrist, a small drop of blood dripping onto the concrete near his feet.
But oh, God, I feel I've been lied
to
Lost all faith in the things I have achieved
And I
He presses a little harder, the blood dripping out faster and he watches with a
mix fascination and fear.
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
It's the first time he has risen from his coffin since Hojo put him there. He sees two figures standing above him, talking. "Cid." He says, as a tear falls to mix with the blood.
I'm
longing to be lost in you
(away from this place I have made)
Won't you take me away from me
It's a year after the battle, and there is nothing left for Vincent. He can
imagine all the times he was with Cid. But Cid left, and said he'd come back.
"He won't be back. No one remembers me."
Crawling through this world as
disease flows through my veins
A cringe as he remembers the Jenova cells resting in his body.
I look into myself, but my own
heart has been changed
He closes his eyes, faintly hearing the smashing of a mirror as he sees the monster he has become for the first time.
I can't go on like this
I loathe all I've become
The knife drops to the ground, and Vincent kneels in the growing pool of blood, watching the crimson river flow down his arm.
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
The wounds on his wrist start to heal just as they always did. The blood starts to slow. Sobbing he tears at it with his metal arm.
I'm longing to be lost in you
(away from this place I have made)
Won't you take me away from me
"Why
didn't you come back like you promised?"
Lost in a dying world I reach for
something more
I have grown so weary of this lie I live
"Why can't it END!" He screams, throwing his hand into his own blood.
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
He hears a faint door slam as his vision clouds. "Could it be over now? Is this finally the end?"
I'm longing to be lost in you
(away from this place I have made)
Won't you take me away from me
Strong arms reach around and grab his bleeding wrist, squeezing tightly, stopping the bleeding. "Why?"
"Won't you take me away from me?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well I
really hope you liked it. It's my first angst piece, so please don't be harsh.
AND NO FLAMES IF YOU DIDN'T LIKE IT!! Um, sorry it's Evanescence again, it's
just that they have some very angsty songs, and I've found them easiest to
write to. Well I really hope you like it and find that it seems like Vincent.
It did when I wrote it. Enjoy! Please review. ^_^
