This is my THIRD chapter today!
Crew: YAY you're gonna play Linkin Park now?
Yep! WOOHOO! -dances around- Enjoy the show!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own One Piece or Linkin Park for that matter. I do own an Ipod and some pop tarts though… and me.. And my friends.. I think..
I looked around for my book bag and grabbed it off my bed. I grabbed my guitar, amps, Ipod, and Ipod hookup. "Okay, I got everything; Ipod's set to Linkin Park, Amps are okay, guitars in good condition. Time to rock out." I said. I packed the supplies in my bag and walked out of the cabin.
The check listing took 10 minutes. 5 minutes left to setup. I set everything up on the upper deck which was shaped like a stage. I charged up my amps, plugged in my Ipod, and strummed my guitar to make sure it was on the right volume.
I adjusted my amps to the right volume. 1 minute to show time, the crew came out of the kitchen for my show and took seats by the rails. Sanji decided to sit the closest to the stage. Tanisha and Godell sat by both sides of Zoro.
Nami and Robin sat on both sides of Usopp and Luffy sat with Chopper. "Everyone's here right? Good. I'll be playing a few tracks by Linkin Park. Hope you enjoy the show!" I announced. The crew cheered.
I pressed a button on my Ipod. The sound mix started up, I strummed my guitar to the tune and started the song.
Why
does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right
today.
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I
don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But
I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my
head
Like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I
close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that
laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know
that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is
hearing me
Right beneath my skin
It's like I'm paranoid
lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's
like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face
inside is right beneath my skin
I know I've got a face in
me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the
inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what
set me off first
But I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts
like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can
but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that
awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A
face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So
you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside
is watching you too
Right inside your skin
x2
It's
like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind
inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing
within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin x3
The sun
goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I
feel the light betray me
The sun
I feel the light betray
me
The sun
I feel the light betray me
It's like I'm
paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my
head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like
the face inside is right beneath my skin
It's like I'm
paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my
head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I
can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm
hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
I ended the song with the final chord. "Papercut everybody." I said. Everyone cheered. "That's was amazing!" Sanji exclaimed. "Yeah that was so cool!" Luffy also exclaimed. "If you liked that one, you'll love this one. Usopp you should listen carefully to this one."
The song switched itself to Runaway, it started up and I strummed to the tune.
Graffiti decorations under a sky of dust
A constant wave of tension
On top of broken trust
The lessons that you taught me
I learned were never true
Now I find myself in question
(they point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(you point the finger at me again)
I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
I hear imaginary voices
Under a sky of dust
Another wave of tension
Has more than filled me up
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true
Now I find myself in question
(they point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(you point the finger at me again)
I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
I'm gunna run away and never say goodbye
(gunna run away gunna run away gunna run away gunna run away)
I'm gunna run away and never wonder why
(gunna run away gunna run away gunna run away gunna run away)
I'm gunna run away and open up my mind
(gunna run away gunna run away)
Mind
(gunna run away gunna run away)
Mind
(gunna run away gunna run away)
Mind
I'm wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
I wanna run away
(and open up my mind)
I wanna run away
(and open up my mind)
I wanna run away
(and open up my mind)
I wanna run away
And open up my mind
There was a 2 second pause, then cheering. "That was better than the last one!" Luffy said. "I don't get why she wanted me to listen close to this song but still, WOOHOO!" Usopp cheered. "That was Runaway! I still have plenty more to play. ..That rhymed. NOO MY GRAMMAR'S GETTING BETTER!" I laughed.
"Well here we go with the next one. In The End." The song started up.
(it starts with one)
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard I try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme to explain in due time
(all I know)
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day the clock ticks life away
(its so unreal)
didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on you didn't even know I wasted it all just to watch you
(go)
I kept everything inside and even thought I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of the time
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme to remind myself how I
(tried so hard)
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it
(got so far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then but it all comes back to me
(in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of the time
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
2x
I put my trust in you
Pushed at far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
As the final chord faded there were ear-splitting cheers coming from the crew. "I'm glad I made you one of the crew's entertainers!" Luffy exclaimed. "I'm glad she's our entertainer" Sanji swooned. Sanji-ness X3 What nobody knew was there was an addition to the show that Godell, Tanisha and I have been planning. yes more songfics XD
"That's it for the Solo. Godell, Tanisha! Time to execute plan 'Spice Up'!" I said to Godell and Tanisha. They nodded and moved behind the red stage curtain I set up before the show. I went in after them. "We'll be out shortly, stay seated!" I said sending a wink to the audience.
Everyone exchanged excited glances. "I wonder what they're gonna do?" Usopp whispered to Nami and Robin. They just shrugged. Sanji was thinking abut… stuff and Zoro was waiting silently… and secretly eyeing Nami but now that isn't so secret anymore. XD
-huff huff- The next chapter is gonna be a songfic. Again, but this time I'll be dragging some others into the fic. There might be pairing in the next one -wink nudge hint-
Sanji: This one was long… YAY YOU'RE BACK! FOR REAL! -glomps-
I'm such an uke today! -sweat drops-
