Hello, everybody, its GoldenRed Phoenix with yet another songfic. This time, it's Twilight, by Vanessa Carlton, off the Be Not Nobody cd.
Serrakkin Wow! It's not an Avril Lavigne song!
Aurora Phoenix, you're review-high aren't you?
Yup! Um...Serrakkin is a dragon, and Aurora's a sorceress, both from various other stories. Anyway, I think this song describes Draco so well, don't you?
DISCLAIMER: I don't own this. Harry Potter belongs to J.K. Rowling and various other publishing companies. Twilight belongs to Vanessa Carlton and various others.

Draco's POV
_________________________
Draco Malfoy, future Death Eater. Heir of the Malfoy fortune. Slytherin. That's me. But then YOU stepped into my life.
*I was stained, with a role
In a day not my own
But as you walked into my life
You showed what needed to be shown
I always knew, what was right
I just didn't know that I might
Peel away and choose to see
With such a different sight.*
You. Ginny Weasley. The only Weasley girl. Liked by all. Kind, patient and forgiving. Confident and clever. Because of you, my life will never be the same.
*And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high, cause I've seen
Cause I've seen, twilight.*
You approach me in the library, and ask how I am. I insult you, but you ignore that. You smile, and I can tell you see right through me. Right past my guards. The guards I spent years building. You tell me I don't have to be a Death Eater if I don't want to be. You know
*Never cared, never wanted
Never sought to see what flaunted
So on purpose, so in my face
Couldn't see beyond my own place
It was so easy not to behold what I could hold
But you taught me I could change
Whatever came within these shallow days.*
I ask how you know. You merely gaze at me, smile and shrug. You say there is more to a person than what's on the outside. I suddenly find myself telling all my troubles to you. You listen, without a word, as I spill my heart out. As I finish, you hug me, and tell me to go to Dumbledore. You say he will help me.
*And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high, cause I've seen
Cause I've seen, twilight.*
I ask that you come with me. You nod, and follow me to Dumbledore's office, where I tell him everything. He says he will do what he can to help me, and we leave. Students stare at us as we walk past. We separate in the Entrance Hall, you for Gryffindor Tower, me for Slytherin Dungeons. I feel as if a weight were lifted from me.
*As the sun shines through, it pushes away
And pushes ahead
It fills the warmth of blue
And leaves a chill instead and
I didn't know I could be
So blind to all that is so real
But as illusion dies
I see there is so much to be revealed.*
I feel the life around me, in a way I never felt before. I see the happiness of the people that pass me in the halls. Happiness that I never felt. I see my waste of a childhood. I look around me and see all thatv I have missed in my life.
*And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high, cause I've seen
Cause I've seen, twilight.*
I can't believe I have ever been so blind to all that exists. I see life as a living thing. A beautiful thing. A thing meant to be enjoyed to the fullest extent.
*I was stained, by a role
In a day not my own
But as you walked into my life
You showed what needed to be shown
I always knew, what was right
I just didn't know that I might
Peel away and choose to see
With such a different sight.*
I feel no fear anymore. Whatever comes, I can take it. Perhaps, one day, I will even be happy. Perhaps...
*And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high, cause I've seen
Cause I've seen, twilight.*
You did that for me, Ginny Weasley. You did that, for which I will be forever grateful.
