She Haunts Me

Comments: Please, oh please, oh please! I've never tried anything like this before and I want to know how it is working.

She's in my head
That voice I hate to hear
The sultry tone that
Slides right down my ear

Everywhere I go
I see her standing there
That slayer is haunting me
With her lovely blond hair

She walks around so brave
Holding a stake so delicate
I hate that bitch!
But... I would love to have a go at it

No, No! That's Wrong!
I want her dead!
I would just give anything
To have her out of my head

At first it was so simple
Mortal enemies at war
Me & Dru came to Sunny hell
To see what was in store

But then things changed
Eternal love left me for her sire
And Angel tried to send this world
To Hell's great evil fire

So I joined forces
With the one I despise
We saved the world...
As I left I heard her cries

Romance had fallen apart
Her lover gone to Hell
How much we had in common
Only God could tell

Drusilla thought I loved her
Maybe it was true
So I came back to Sunnydale
To see what I could do

To prove to Dru I hadn't gone soft
And get my lover back
Tried to do a love spell
But met into a little sidetrack

I kidnapped that little witch
To do me a spell
After that Buffy wanted me
To take a nice trip to Hell

But her plan was shot
When I refused to say
Where her friends were
Until I got my way

I made her work with me
The slayer at my side
Neither was quite happy
Well... okay I lied

We fought a bit
And kicked some vamps to dust
Blood was blood, but I'm sure
Towards her I felt a little lust

But me and her, after all was done
Went on our separate ways
I had found myself
Out of that self-pity daze

I was strong again
Maybe because of her
Left that town after
I had created quite a stir

Went on back to Dru
But didn't want her anymore
My love was not a vampire
But the Slayer of ancient lore

But I denied, and refused
To see the plain old truth
So I found who I could to
Replace the beauty so full of youth

Harmony; she almost made it seem
I was not alone where I stood
She looked so much like Buffy...
But she was as stupid as driftwood

We came for the Amarra Gem
But, Harmony, I loved her not
What was I thinking dating her?
It's a time I'd rather have forgot

The ring was found and I
Had some fun in the sunlight
Was having a spot of fun
Until Buffy and I began to fight

In turn, the Amarra ring was lost
To Angel and his merry band
Before I lost it all,
I had held the power in my hand

I had held the power
To rid me of that slayer girl
And get her out of my head
To kill her once and for all

The government captured me,
After many battles where I had won,
They put a chip in my head
That ruined all of my fun

No longer could I brawl
No longer could I kill
But of death I did not
Already have my fill

Just wanted more victims
Some more delicious blood
How did my life
Turn into such crud

I turned to her
In that dark time
She helped me, saved me
While I was not in my prime

So I roomed with her friends
Giles, and then that clown Xander
But I missed that days when I was
Top dog, head vamp, the commander

Things turned interesting though
When little Willow Witch
Did a spell on Buffy and me and
My emotions did a switch

My feelings towards that
Girl who haunts me still
Reacted, we kissed, so dear
A wish we did that day fulfil

We tried to forget that one moment
How precious and so rare
She said she hated my kisses
So I moved and got a new lair

My life was such crap,
Until I learned I could fight
To get my fill of violence, and kill
Demons that walk in the night

Now I knew how Buffy felt
Saving the world wasn't that bad
But in a twisted way
I felt really sad

I had turned my back on my kind
Fighting them just to get my kicks
They noticed too, tried to kill me
But I didn't fall for their tricks

Things couldn't stay that way
My sanity never have never lasted
I couldn't love her or join her side
Our ways were just too contrasted

So I teamed with Adam
To be bad once more
He would help me
And then even the score

Adam couldn't be trusted though
He didn't come through
Even after I helped him
And made Buffy so blue

It hurt to see her
In so much pain I had caused
So in the big Initiative battle
I took a moment and paused

Sure, we had our differences
More than once we disagreed
Still we were the allies
In this battles we would need

She could have killed me then
But she refused and let me go
Why she did what she did
I may never know

So now every thing is different
We let each other live in peace
Sometimes we assist each other
But our fighting may never cease

I almost lost her to Dracula
If he had hurt her in any way
I swear to God
I would have made him pay

Her boyfriend is such a poof
I know I could have shown
How cowardly he was, if just
One punch I could have thrown

And now Harmony is back
And she's knocking on my door
I just have to ask, why me,
I can't take this anymore!

She's got minions
And she thinks the slayer's here
Like all Buffy can do is kill or
Run from Harmony in fear

But things can be manipulated
I learned that from the past
With Harmony as my lackey
I thought maybe this chip won't last

But that was hours ago
And the doc he did me wrong
It was impossible to remove and so
This is my swan song

I can't bite no more, it's useless
I'm waiting for that which I can't hide
Buffy will come in and complete
This, my finale suicide

I'm tired of seeing her in my mind
She wants me to join her
To help her like times before
But I can not defer

I've been waiting for
Six hours straight
I wonder if she'll come
What is making her so late

When she comes in I'll say
"Just do it, just stake me"
Don't know why she just
Won't let me be

I hear her footsteps
This is the end I've waited for
So hurry up Buffy
And come even the score
