Puck spent hours listening to songs on his iPod. He found lots of songs he could sing. None of them really meant much to him. It wasn't that he didn't like singing songs by Billy Joel or even trying his hand at Eminem, but it wasn't him. Hell, too bad he had already sang Rebecca Black's Friday, or he'd do that. What on earth could he sing?
He walked into the school. Who could he ask? If he asked Schue, he'd probably have him singing some damn Journey song. God, not Journey. If he asked Miss Pillsbury she'd probably stumble around and start singing stupid pop music. No, this was one the puckmiester had to figure out himself. He decided he needed a distraction, so he figured he'd try out going to Math class. Just to make sure he didn't learn anything, he took his iPod with him.
As the teacher droaned on about stuff he didn't' care about and couldn't understand, the perfect song came on his ipod. He knew this song was perfect for him, it kicked ass but showed him having a serious side. Plus he could play guitar and considering he still wanted in Lauren's pants, He needed to up his inner rockstar. He could kick ass and do this.
He actually practiced. And by practice, he actually played through the song 12 times before the next glee meeting. He gave up going to Math and English to practice. Who the hell needs English when your gonna be a rockstar! He was excited to sing to the other kids and to hopefully finally land his chance with Lauren.
He walked into glee that day, and said "I'm ready to sing." Mr Schue said "Ok Puck you are up then. Take the floor and show us what you've got"
Puck walked in front of the group and began to sing…
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
Initally the group was silent. Finally Santana looked at Puck and said "You so kicked ass on that song" The entire group was gathered around Puck to congratulate him on a job well done.
While the group was gathering, Emma pulled Will aside and said "Shannon said she wants in on this favorite song thing too. She said she'll have something ready for the next meeting. Is that ok?"
"Sounds fine to me. Are we still on for tonight?"
"Of course Will, see you later."
