CHELY WRIGHT LYRICS
"Shut Up And Drive"
she summoned her oar. she'd show him. she'd show that toddler what he gave up. she just caught him sleeping with another woman. she flew off, not hearing his plea's begging her to stay.
Shut up and drive You don't know what you're talking about He's not the one
she was half way to yusuke's and keiko's apartment before she doubted her actions. maybe it was a mistake? a misunderstanding? perhaps he deserved another chance?
You ought to know that by now You've got one of those hearts That keeps changing your mind Your heart has a way of making you stay So shut up and drive
she turned her oar around and flew back to reikai, maybe she could give him a chance to earn her trust again. she stopped before she got too far. NO! Botan, he was wrong to do that. you can't forgive him. how could that have been a mistake? he sure as hell looked like he was enjoying it! she whimpered and started back to the detective's home.
Don't look in the mirror He might have that look in his eyes The one thats so strong It strangles your will to survive
she got a little closer before she doubted her actions again. maybe they could talk it out? she could work around it, forgive him once, right? she turned around, flying to reikai again. but she didn't make it too far. she didn't notice the black figure watching her, she was too deep in thought.
He's mastered the art Of looking sincere His eyes have a way of making you stay Don't look in the mirror
He'll just do it again, the second you forgive him, he'll think of her. do you want him to hurt you again?...no, no i don't...she turned around and flew towards yusuke and keiko again. she was about to knock on the door when she heard something behind her. she turned around and saw koenma, he looked so sad, and sorry. "k-koenma..."
I'm the voice you never listen to And I had to break your heart to make you see That he's the one who will be missing you
she bowed her head, "w-why, i thought you loved me?" she heard him shift his feet. they were both unaware of the shadow watching them from a tree. she heard him sigh, "i did...i do love you botan. i love you and only you." she looked up at him, tears falling from her eyes, leaving stains where they hit the ground. "then why did i find you sleeping with her!"
And you'll only miss the man That you wanted him to be
he sighed again, "i don't know. you were supposed to be gone all night." she recoiled in disgust as he reached out to touch her. "how dare you! how dare you say that! you beg me to come back and then you lie to me? twice?" she glared at him through her tears, but he didn't back down. "botan, i didn't plan for you to find out...please forgive me, take me back. please?"
Turn the radio on To drown out the sound of goodbye Blink back the tears Show me you've still got your pride
she shook her head violently, he took a step toward her and her hand shot up. "don't you, don't you dare you big baby. if i can't trust you, then i can't even look at you. stay away!" he took another step, "but botan..." "i believe she told you to fuck off toddler." they both turned to see hiei. he had become tired of watching them fight from the side lines and decided to help her when koenma started walking toward her.
Just get yourself lost In a sad country song Those guys that they play Know just what to say Turn the radio on.
"hiei?" she looked at him with tears in her eyes, she took a step toward him but koenma grabbed her arm, "you stay out of this demon. this has nothing to do with you. botan, ignore him. come home with me. please?" she looked between them. hiei was her friend, and he never butted into anything unless it was important, but koenma was the man she loved. HAD loved. you don't love him any more. she pulled her arm away from him.
I'm the voice you never listen to And I had to break your heart to make you see That he's the one who will be missing you
"y-you saty away from me. i want to go with hiei. he's my friend." she backed away from the godling, watching his face contort in anger. "why? he's a bloody murderer botan. you remeber when you died? that was him! he killed you!" she put her hands over her ears and screamed, "NO! YOU'RE LYING! HE WOULDN'T!" she ran over to hiei and fell to the ground, sobbing. "no no no no no no no!"
And you'll only miss the man That you wanted him to be
"onna, he's lying. i didn't kill you. get up." he offered her his hand and pulled her up into an embrace. he glared at koenma, "i believe you should go before she asks me to kill you. don't think i won't do it. because i will." the godling turned around and left, saying only one thing. "you're fired." botan broke down sobbing again and hiei held her closer. they heard a gasp close by and saw keiko and yusuke starring on in disbelief.
Shut up and drive Don't look in the mirror
"b-botan? would you like to stay here?" keiko saw botan nod slightly, her face still burried in hiei's shoulder. they knew she was still crying. "hey hiei, would you like to stay too? we've got two spare beds." hiei looked from botan to the detective. he considered it for a moment before nodding. he didn't think it would be wise to just leave botan after all that. she would never trust him again if he did.
Turn the radio on Get out of here
yusuke led them to the spare room, there was one big bed in the middle, made up of two different mattresses. yusuke pushed them about a foot apart and hiei and botan sat down on the end of one. "h-he was cheating on me." they looked at botan, her voice was so unsure, but it wasn't a question. keiko walked into the room with a pair of pjama's for botan and some hot tea for her and hiei. "arigato. all of you." botan whipped away her tears, "thank you for everything."
Shut up and drive Shut up and drive Shut up and drive
she fell asleep in hiei's embrace and he laid her down on the bed. yusuke and keiko waved goodnight and left the room. when hiei tried to pull his arms away from botan she clutched onto them tighter, and mumbled "n-no...don't leave...". he sighed and layed down beside her, and fell asleep within moments.
TA-DA! done! and look it's sort of a happy ending, ne? i hope you liked it
