Easier to Touch the Sun

Reaching for the sun

Reaching for you

This sorrow hurts me

Burns me without your love

I hate this. The way she makes me feel. I'm not supposed to love her. I mean she's human. The bleedin' Slayer for hells sake. But I do love her, with my whole undead heart.

You haven't called me

I'm desperate

There's been many moons

I've cried over you

I never should have told her how I feel. That just made it worse. At least before I told her she'd talk to me. Now she's completely shut me out of her life. She even had Red do that de-invitation spell. Dawn won't even talk to me. It hurts.

Reaching for the sun

Desperate

It's easier to touch the sun

Than your heart

I went to your house

But you weren't there

Searched for you

In the park,

The plaza, the cinema

Every night I try to catch a glimpse of her. She hardly stays at home anymore since her mum died. Her and the nibblet have been sleepin' at the Watcher's. When she goes on patrol, I follow her. At a safe distance, of course. I know if she catches me she'll stake me.

Your trapped

Between my skin and my soul

I can't take it anymore

I want to be next to you.

I don't know how much longer I can do this. Watching her go on with her life not caring that my unlife is over. I'd just leave town, but it wouldn't help. It wouldn't end my torment.

Reaching for the sun

Desperate

It's easier to touch the sun

Than your heart

Dying for you

Can't take the pain

Of living without you

I can't go on like this

I'm so bloody pathetic. Just like my wanker of a sire. I don't even know how this happened. But I've got to stop it and there's only one way.

Reaching for the sun

Desperate

It's easier to touch the sun

Than your heart

It's almost sunrise and I'm standing at the Watcher's front door. I followed her all night and she came back here about a half an hour ago. I know she isn't sleeping yet. I can feel the sun start to rise as my hand does the same, knocking on the door. She answers and her face is the last thing I see. "I love you." I whisper. She stares at me with wide eyes her mouth hanging open. Then nothing. I'm dust.

Dying for you

Can't take the pain

Of living without you

I can't go on like this
