"Welcome back to American Idol! Hope you liked the commercials," Ryan Seacrest said. "Next up we have Maximum Ride singing… Let's see what she says."
"Hi! I'm singing Savin' Me by Nickelback." I said. "Wish me luck!"
I walked down to the tryout room and despite all the things I've done in my lifetime, my nerves were getting the best of me. I hope I got in.
"So Maximum, get on with the song." Simon said.
Gosh, I thought, way to be in a hurry. Okay nerves, calm down. I can't believe Angel and Nudge made me do this! Of course, I made the mistake of looking at them…
"Come on, Sweetie. We know you're nervous." Paula gestured with her hands to get along with the show. I hope you like it Angel and Nudge. Here goes nothing…
Prison
gates won't open up for me Show me what it's like Heaven's
gates won't open up for me Show me what it's like Hurry I'm
fallin' All I need is you Show me what it's like Hurry I'm fallin'
On these hands and knees I'm
crawlin'
Oh, I reach for you
Well I'm terrified of these four
walls
These iron bars can't hold my soul in
All I need is
you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry
I'm fallin', I'm fallin'
To be the
last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show
you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave
this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me
With these broken wings I'm fallin'
And
all I see is you
These city walls ain't got no love for me
I'm
on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you
Come
please I'm callin'
And all I need from you
Hurry I'm fallin',
I'm fallin'
To be the last one
standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I
can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life
behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me
Come please I'm callin'
And
oh, I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin', I'm
fallin'
To be the last one
standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I
can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life
behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me
Paula came up and gave me a huge hug. "That was wonderful, darling. Hollywood is waiting!"
In the back round I saw Randy and Simon nod as I walked out of the room. As soon as I opened the doors Nudge and Angel bounded up to me. How cute Angel looked!
"Max, that was the best performance that I have ever seen in my lifetime. It's like even without background music to keep time to. Wow! I can't wait until the actual performance," Nudge lectured us. I walked over to Fang and his sighed.
