Shuichi sat in the recording studio, writing madly. Occasionally, and odd strip of seemingly offt une notes would leave his throat in a hum. Unlike usual, the loud, bouncy singer was seemingly wrapped up in what he was doing.
"What's up with this? He normally can't concentrate for more then two minutes and now he's just sitting there writing. We don't even need a new song yet. What the hell is up with that?" Suguru complained, sighing angrily. "Seriously, we're ---" he was cut off when Hiro pushed a hand to his mouth --- effectively shutting him up.
Shuichi glanced up, but didn't say anything, merely went back to his lyrics. Finally, he moved his violet eyes back to the top of the page, reading through the lyrics, humming odd bits of tune here or there as he read; as if he already had an idea of what it should sound like. Putting the paper aside, he nodded slightly, finished.
Hiro stood up, walking toward his best friend and taking to lyrics to look them over. As he read, his features held a slightly concerned look; however, when he reached the end, he smiled slightly. "Shuu, these are great," he said softly.
Suguru came forward and snatched the paper; reading through carelessly. As he got to the end, he rolled his eyes, letting the paper fall to the floor. "At least you didn't write about fish," he said finally, earning him glares from both Hiro and Shuichi.
The door of the recording studio opened and their manager came in, holding his magnum lovingly. "What might we be doing?" he asked commandingly, noting that they were basically standing around.
Hiro pointed down at the lyrics which K bent to pick up. He began to read them over, wondering what about the paper had kept the band from practicing.
"The Inner Me
Cowering beyond
This pain; you've put up my outer act
Trying to understand your complaints
But the walls remain intact
Struggling to calm this world inside
You're taking what's left
Of my inner sanity
Only an act on the outside
They all think they know the inner me
I've committed myself to you
Yet you only push away
It's tearing me up on the inside
To know you'll always be this way
Struggling to calm this world inside
You're taking what's left
Of my inner sanity
Only an act on the outside
They all think they know the inner me
But I
I'm hiding from the world
Waiting for you
You to find the inner me"
