Remake of "Once More with Feeling" songs
Author notes: So I dressed as two things for Halloween- one for a party the day before, one for the actual day and the party of that day. My first costume was Velma Kelly from Chicago, and I spent a lot of time singing the songs she sang from her musical. My next costume was my girl Faith as you all could probably guess, seeing as every Buffy story I write except maybe two has her as a starring role. I realized that Faith didn't have any songs to sing from the Buffy musical, and being the major geek that I am, decided to rewrite a few songs with the tune to the original songs to fit her, so that she was singing them. So here they are.
Song 2: Remake of "Going through the motions"- takes place while Faith has just turned to the mayor, she is still in cemetery
Faith:
Every single night, the same derangement
I brandish my sharp knife with glee
Still I'm unhappy in this arrangement
I just want to be, accepted for me
I've been trying hard, keeping on guard
As my true thoughts are jarred
And I've been lying to everyone
Pretending it's okay
Hiding my guilt for my crimes a-wayyyy
I know that life is tough, and not too damn fair
But now I find I'm going mad
I try to pretend, that I just don't care
But I fear I'm going bad
Demon: She's not really glad-
Faith: I'm really pretty sad
Demons: She is soon to be
Evil, yippee
And she'll join our mutiny
Cause she's been lying to everyone
She'll join our side now
Demon: She will be a force of darkness- owwww!
Faith: Will I stay in my endeavor?
Make one mistake, and bad forever?
Handsome man: I like the way you slay-
Faith: Whatever!
I don't want to beeeeee….
Lying to everyone
With nothing as it seemed
I think it's too late
That this is just my fate
But I just want to beeee…re-deeeemed….
