This is a song I wrote that explains why Spike sung Rest In Peace. I mean, we all know that He liked Buffy at that point, so why tell her to stay away? This song answers that question. It is sung by Spike in my mind, and is basically him thinking outloud.

A/N-This song never appeared anywhere in the series. If I had to choose a spot to fit it in though, it would be in OMWF as Buffy is going out to patrol.


Living Lie

Refrain:
Why am I here?
What am I doin'?
What is the point,
The point of livin'?

Something ain't right,
I can feel it in my soul.
Feel it in my heart as well,
Even though it's dead and cold.

See her every night,
But I don't make a sound.
Hiding in the shadows that,
Lie upon the ground.

Chours:
Silent I remain,
Quiet as a grave.
Faced with a silent death,
I'd rather die than be brave.

Refrain repeats

If I tell her how I feel,
I'll most likely die.
But if I don't,
I'll be living a lie.

Chours repeats

I live in darkness,
She lives in light.
Couldn't be together in the day,
Couldn't live at night.

Chours repeats

I guess I'll stay silent.
I'll keep my thoughts inside.
I'll leave her to her happiness,
And I'll just live a lie.

Silent I'll remain,
Quiet as a grave.
Living a silent death,
Rather than be brave.

Refrain repeats


There you go. Please R&R.
