I was listening to Thirty Seconds to Mars' song "The Kill," and thinking about Naruto, specifically Itachi, and this happened. Aren't I glad I wrote it down?
Inspired by Thirty Seconds to Mars' "The Kill"
What if I wanted to break
Laugh it all off in your face
What would you do?
What if I wanted to fight
Make you all beg for your lives
What would you say?
Now, as you fall
What are you thinking?
You were so proud of me
You taught me, nurtured me
Elevated me so high, so fast-
Too high. Too fast.
I was your weapon
But you forgot to break me to your control
You did not win my loyalty
You did not win my heart
You forged me into a sword
But didn't make me a sheath
You can't break me down
Though you tried to bury me
I am finished with you
Look in my eyes
I'm killing you, killing you
That's what you wanted me for
So close your eyes
As you fade to black
Too late: they're gone
They won't be back.
