Original Songs

Chapter 1: Cannonball

Hey everyone! This takes place in season 3. I hope you enjoy this! I DO NOT OWN GLEE OR THE SONGS!

Rachel's POV:

I was siting in the auditorium working on my songs that I have been writing. They are all for my fiancé Finn Hudson. He is the love of my life. I realized that I am late to Glee. I Rachel Berry am never late for anything, especially Glee! I grab my bag and music sheets and run towards the choir room. I walked in while Mr. Shuester was talking. Everyone stopped and looked at me.

"I am so sorry I am late Mr. Shuester. I was just working on some songs that I am writing." I stated.

"You're writing songs?" Mr. Shuester questioned.

"Yes. I am." I replied. I was blushing.

"Can we hear them?" Kurt questioned.

"Ya can we Rachel?" Mr. Shuester asked.

"They aren't done yet. I am not sure if they are good." I said.

"Please babe?" Finn begged. I can't say no to him.

"Fine." I sighed defeated. Mr. Shuester took his seat. I gave my sheet music to Brad. He started playing and I started singing.

Break down
Break down

Break down
I was scared to death I was losing my mind
Break down
I couldn't close my eyes I was pacing all night, oh, no,
I think I found the light at the end of the tunnel (and my doubts)
I couldn't find the truth I was going under

But I won't hide inside
I gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out
Lonely inside and light the fuse
Light it now, light it now, light it now

And now I will start living today, today, today
I close the door
I got this new beginning and I will fly
I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

Freedom
I let go of fear and the peace came quickly
Freedom
I was in the dark and then it hit me
I chose suffering and pain in the falling rain
I know, I gotta get out into the world again

But I won't hide inside
I gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out
Lonely inside and light the fuse
Light it now, light it now, light it now

And now I will start living today, today, today
I close the door
I got this new beginning and I will fly
I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

Break down
I was scared to death I was losing my mind
Break down
I gotta get out into the world again

And now I will start living today, today, today
I close the door
I got this new beginning and I will fly
I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

Everyone stood up and clapped. Finn came over and kissed me.

"That was amazing Rach!" Finn exclaimed.

"Thank you." I replied.

"Ya Rachel that was really good!" Santana stated. I smiled as everyone gave me compliments.

"I hope you will share the rest of your songs with us." Mr. Shuester stated.

"Okay." I replied. We talked the rest of the class.

I hope you enjoyed this! Please leave a review! Thanks! REVIEW!
