Digimon
Legal stuff: I don't own any of the Digimon characters, nor do I own any of Savage Garden's songs. I'm just borrowing them for a while =).
This is I guess #2 out of four the last one being "Win Some, Lose Some". Uh, anyway this is Tai's POV right now, and the song is "Break Me, Shake Me" by Savage Garden (reallllllly good CD, both of them.)
BREAK ME, SHAKE ME
Tai lays in his bed with Nicole, in his apartment. Lying there he thinks about what he has done. Savage Garden's "Break Me, Shake Me" starts.
(I never thought I'd change my opinion again.)
Tai thinks about Sora, all the pain she must be suffering.
(But you moved me in a way that I've never known. You moved in a way that I've never known)
Tai thinks about all the fights with Sora he's had, how he could always make up with her. Why did she go to him this time?
(But straight away you just moved into position again. You abused me in a way that I've never known)
Yamato. . .
(You abused me in a way that I've never known)
Scenes from his fight with Sora flood his mind, a broken vase, him shaking her violently, A scream of "I hate you" then a slammed door.
(So, Break me, shake me, hate me, take me over. When the madness stops, then you will be alone.)
Sora sinks to her knees and sobs.
(Just, Break me, shake me, hate me, take me over. When the madness stops, then you will be alone.)
Tai storms out and heads down the street, he is soon found at a party, surrounded by many beer bottles.
(So you're the kind who deals with games in the mind, )
He downs another
(You confuse me in a way that I've never known. You confuse me in a way that I've never known. )
The same awful scene runs through his head, now pounding over the noise of the party and the beer,
(So, Break me, shake me, hate me, take me over. When the madness stops, then you will be alone. So won't you, Break me, shake me, hate me, take me over. When the madness stops, then you will be alone.)
Tai is nearly passed out, he hangs on the couch as she approaches him.
(She says, "I can help you, but what do you say? 'Cause it's not free baby. You'll have to pay.")
Tai reaches up to her and kisses her, follows her back to a bedroom. Sora is doing the same with Yamato.
(You just keep me contemplating, that your soul is slowly fading.)
Tai kisses Nicole. . . Sora kisses Yamato. . . a beer bottle falls. . .The camera does a couple of three-sixties.
We go back to Tai in the bed.
(God, don't you know that I live with a ton of regret, 'cause I used to move you in a way that you've never known, but then I accused you in a way that you've never known)
Tai looks at Nicole making his whole accusation void.
(But you hurt me in a way that I've never known . . . )
He has to get away, to make up with her.
(Break me, shake me, hate me, take me over. When the madness stops, then you will be alone. So won't you, break me, shake me, hate me, take me over. When the madness stops, then you will be alone.)
(Break me, shake me, hate me, take me over. When the madness stops, then you will be alone, Break me, shake me, hate me, take me, make me. Break me, break me, shake me, hate me, take me.)
He closes the door and leaves
(Break me.)
