Okay, so… song fic number two. This is to another Evanescence song, 'Field of Innocence'. I picked it because it was so PERFECT to Link's situation. Just read the lyrics and you'll see. It's amazing. You know that you're a nerd when; You're listening to a song for the first time and the first thing you think to it is, "OMG! This would make the best song fic for LoZ ever!"
So… Here you go. Hope you think it fits just as well as I do. (I still don't own Evanescence.)

Character- Link
Setting- Again, this is more of just his thoughts… so there is no real setting.
.
Field Of Innocence
.
Who I am, really?
Why is it me?
Couldn't anyone else have taken this?
This task…
Seemingly made for me.
Couldn't have destiny been more merciful?
.
I was stolen…
Stolen from all I knew.
Ripped of what I had.
And now…
Now I'm here.
Now I'm this,
.
I still remember the world
From the eyes of a child
.
All the hope…
And happiness…
That I once had.
It's not there.
Not anymore.
.
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know now.
.
I've been banished here.
To complete my task.
But I don't even know who I am anymore.
Who am I?
Why was I taken here?
…
I know my destiny.
It has been told to me.
Told.
I have no choice.
It is not mine to select.
But…
Why could no one else have done this?
Why do I get the grief?
.
Where has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real world
I want to go back to
Believing in everything
And knowing nothing at all
.
I know that I must be strong.
And I'm trying.
I really am.
But it's hard.
I'm not who I appear.
I'm only a child.
Only ten.
But I've been forced to this.
Forced to my own destiny.
And now…
Everything has changed.
.
I still remember the sun
Always warm on my back
Somehow it seems colder now
.
When I look in the mirror…
I see a face.
It's mine…
But not truly.
I've been put in this body…
To face my task.
I was put here…
Because I was too young and too small.
Isn't that a sign?
A sign that someone is not ready?
If I wasn't ready then…
Why should I be ready now?
I'm not ready.
.
My body is mature…
But my mind is not…
And it's being forced to catch up.
But I don't want it to.
I can't stand it.
.
Where has my heart gone
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
I want to go back to
Believing in everything
.
I know what I must do.
I know what depends on it...
Depends on me.
I can't give up.
Even though I'm lost.
.
Where has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real world
Away
I want to go back to
Believing in everything
Away
.
I wish I could turn back time.
I can do that.
But…
I can't reverse everything…
And that's what I need.
To start over.
I wish I could just go back…
To the way things used to be.
.
Where has my heart gone
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Away
I want to go back to
Believing in everything
.
I hold time in my hands…
But I can do nothing with it.
It's pointless.
The odds are stacked against me.
I have nothing.
Nothing but a memory…
Of what I once had…
And what was stripped of me.
.
I still remember.
.
Well, what do you think? Is that not the perfect song? Listen to it and think about it… because I think it's the best. And I've heard a lot of songs, and read a lot of song fics that were really really good… but none seemed to fit as well as this one. I think this captures the whole idea of the game. And that's why I love it so much… not to mention that the song itself is absolutely amazing. I hoped you liked it. I'll be getting back to your requests soon. Drop me a review please… I adore them all. Even the ones that tell me that I've made mistakes. (But I get to go through and correct them that way… like in chapter 23… queue = cue. Thanks for pointing it out.) Thanks for reading!
OH!!! And just informing you… (Incase you didn't know) that the sixth Harry Potter book has been announced. (True, this was about five days ago… but still…) It's called 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'. Ba ba BA! Gets excited .
