Chapter 7
It's like you're a drug
It's like you're a demon I can't face down
It's like I'm stuck
It's like I'm running from you all the time
I watch her run to him.
I feel powerless.
He grabs her forcefully and shouts at her.
She's scared.
I try to move, try to get to her.
But I can't move.
And I know I let you have all the power
It's like the only company I seek is misery all around
He hits her and drags her away.
I manage to move and follow them.
I keep out of sight.
It's like you're a leech
Sucking the life from me
It's like I can't breathe
Without you inside of me
And I let you have all the power
And I know I'm never gonna quit you over time
He hits her repeatedly.
I want to help her. I need to.
Bit it would be worse, I know it would.
A few weeks ago I wouldn't have cared.
Even though he hits her, her voice is singing yet again.
It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything.
Nothing but you.
I'm addicted to you.
It's like I can't think without you interrupting me
In my thoughts.
In my dreams.
You've taken over me.
It's like I'm not me.
It's like I'm not me.
He pushes her to the floor, tears her clothes and pushes into her.
My blood boils.
How dare he!!
She's crying, pleading with him to stop.
He keeps going.
He ignores her cries.
It's like I'm lost.
It's like I'm giving up slowly.
It's like you're a ghost that's haunting me.
Leave me alone.
And I know these voices in my head are mine alone.
And I know I'll never change my ways if I don't give you up now.
He finishes.
He starts kicking her.
I don't think it's human.
Even a respectable Death Eater like my father wouldn't do this.
It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything.
Nothing but you.
I'm addicted to you.
It's like I can't think without you interrupting me
In my thoughts.
In my dreams.
You've taken over me.
It's like I'm not me.
It's like I'm not me.
What happened to you self respect, Gin? Has he really stripped you of your dignity, pride, sexy, fiery temper.
The self belief you used to have
Where is it?
I think I love you, Gin, even though it's not right.
Who says what's right of wrong?
I'm hooked on you
I need a fix I can't take it
Just one more hit
I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it
Just one more time, then that it
Just a little bit more to get me through this
(repeat x1)
He leaves her, scared, beaten, weak.
I rush to her and kneel in front of her for her to recognise me.
She slowly looks up.
She weakly reaches for me.
I hold her gently.
She cries.
It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything.
Nothing but you.
I'm addicted to you.
It's like I can't think without you interrupting me
In my thoughts.
In my dreams.
You've taken over me.
It's like I'm not me.
It's like I'm not me.
