Song nine: remake of "Under your spell"- it's Faith just before her scene with Angel in the alley in "Five by five"

I live my life in violence

I tell myself that I don't care

But in my heart's cold silence

And reaching out, that I don't dare

I hate what I have become

Riddled with feeling, yet numb

I've made my life such hell

Why does no one see?

I've trapped myself, cannot go free

But of course I'd never tell

Because this is me…

Prideful, frightened, angry…

I wanted your approval

Your assurance that I am good

My current self-removal

Is just because I thought I should

But I'm so unhappy

Why couldn't you care about me?

I've made my life such hell

Losses outweigh gain

Yet you still don't see my pain

You think you know me well

Look with such disdain

As my confidence I feign

In secret I grieve…

But I guess it's too late for me

So I'll just give into villainy…

I've made my life such hell

I feel I'm sinking fast

Can't stop my future, change my past

As my emotions swell

I know my die is cast

Living like this, I won't last

In secret I grieve…

I feel such defeat…

I feel such defeat…

I feel such defeat…
