DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER! OR THE SONG!

My Skin

Snape pov:

I walked down the path outside. Now, nothing would stop me from reaching my goal.

Take a look at my body

Look at my hands

I was scarred all over now, 7 years of hardship and misery does that to you.

There's so much here

That I don't understand

How could this happen, how could it all have gone so wrong? We had planned it out, we were going to get married, live in a castle, live happily ever after. How could we have fallen out? I understand I was wrong to call you that but still…this bad.

Your face saving promises

Whispered like prayers

I was worried the moment after we were sorted, I knew it was going to be hard if you were a Gryffindor and I, a Slytherin. You told me that night in the corridor, "It'll work out, I promise Sev, I promise". Then you quietly left, joining your new roommates.

I don't need them

I don't need them

What was the point if those words would mean nothing to you.

I've been treated so wrong

I've been treated so long

Do you know the torture I've been through? Potter has made my life a living hell.

As if I'm becoming untouchable

You thought I didn't notice how over the years you no longer yelled hi to me in the corridors. We saw each other less and less. Your other friends thought I was scum.

Contempt loves the silence

It thrives in the dark

With fine winding tendrils

That strangle the heart

Potter fancied you. Out of all the girls at Hogwarts who fell at his feet, Potter had to fancy you. In the end you were his. It tore me apart. While you were having you're the time of your life, everyone looked at me with disdain.

They say that promises

Sweeten the blow

But I don't need them

No, I don't need them

You insisted we could be friends even between the house rivalry we should never have even tried.

I've been treated so wrong

I've been treated so long

As if I'm becoming untouchable

Oh, what was the point. Not even your best friends thought of me as alright, just the slimy grease ball.

Normal Pov:

Snape stopped at the edge of the path. There on the side of the road were two flowers. One, a snow white lily, the other a wilting black iris.

I'm a slow dying flower

Frost killing hour

Snape pov:

We are so different.

The sweet turning sour

And untouchable

Remember the days before Hogwarts, when we would play behind in the woods on our street. Ah, how we have changed.

O, I need

The darkness

The sweetness

The sadness

The weakness

I need this

I need

A lullaby

A kiss goodnight

Angel sweet

Love of my life

O, I need this

I loved you, even that idiot Potter could see it. You never noticed, never.

Do you remember the way

That you touched me before

All the trembling sweetness

I loved and adored?

Remember the hours we spent just holding hands and talking in the woods. We were so innocent. We knew nothing about the dark world that awaited us.

Your face saving promises

Whispered like prayers

I don't need them

No, I don't need them

What was the point in promising me we would always be together. You had your friends, I had mine.

O, I need

The darkness

The sweetness

The sadness

The weakness

I need this

Yes, I am not the same Sev you knew, I am darker. But still…

I need

A lullaby

A kiss goodnight

The angel sweet

Love of my life

I need this

Is it dark enough?

Can you see me?

Do you want me?

Can you reach me?

Or I'm leaving

You may not see me again, after this I am leaving.

You better shut your mouth

Hold your breath

Kiss me now you'll catch my death

O, I mean it

You chose Potter, if you decide he is not right for you, I ma not be waiting. In seconds I will be given the Dark Mark. I will be a Death Eater. Through everything I will remember you. I love you Lily.

A/N: Okay this is my first oneshot, and my second story(my first story was written a couple of days ago). Suprisingly I am obsessed with James & Lily fics, but I just watched a snape and lily video on youtube that inspired me to write this. Plz r&r
