A/N: To get the full effect of this chapter, please listen to "The Island pt. 1. Dawn" by Pendulum. and also to the remix version of it, as this version is a combination of both of them. Enjoy!
Finally came the night for the Battle of the Bands at the mall. The Pop Rock Progressives were the last to take the stage and the crowd suddenly quieted down. Alex began his keytar part and Ulrich started up with the bass line and harmony. After the intro the song really started out.
Ulrich S. and Odd D. (quiet and echoey)
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"As we go into the light!"
Alex C.
You arrive in the rising sun
The hidden passenger that I've been takin'
Close your eyes, let's forget again
As you drag me down, I will take you in
Odd and Ulrich
What are you waiting for?
Just surrender here tonight
What are you waiting for?
As we head into the light
Yumi I.
When everything is said and done.
Two looking for answers, if only one
Turn my back, the edge has gone
Left with no reason, we come undone
Alex and Ulrich's big keytar/synth duet with drums in the background
Alex (to Yumi)
I am caught in your slow release
Seems like your traveler is eager to move me
My reflection will slowly fade
To another time, into my head escapes
Odd and Ulrich
What are you waiting for?
Just surrender here tonight!
What are you waiting for?
As we go towards the light!
Alex and Yumi
When everything is said and done.
Two looking for answers, if only one
Turn my back, the edge has gone
Left with no reason, we come undone
Alex, Odd, Ulrich, and Yumi (with Nicholas drumming away in the background)
What are you waiting for?
Just surrender here tonight!
What are you waiting for?
As we go towards the light!
*The band ceases playing and listens to the deafening applause*
