Change in POV guys :P It's now no longer in 3rd person... It's Skye talking
They thought they could dispose of me
They tried to make me small
I suffered each indignity
But i rised above it all
Yes, the price I paid was all I had
But at last, I found release
And if something good can come from bad
The past can rest in peace
Oh if you see someone's hurt
And in need of a hand
Don't forget me
Or hear a melody crying from some baby grand
Don't forget me
When you sing happy birthday to someone you love
Or see diamonds you wish were all free
Please say that you won't;
I pray that you don't forget me
But forget every man who I ever met
'Cause they only lived to control
For a kiss they paid a thousand
Yet they paid fifty cents for my soul
They took their piece
The price of fame that no one can repay
Ah, but they didnt buy me when they bought my name
And that is why I pray
That when you see someone's hurt
And in need of a hand
Don't forget me
Or hear a melody crying from some baby grand
Don't forget me
When you sing happy birthday to someone you love
Or see diamonds you wish were all free
Please say that you won't;
I pray that you don't forget me
There are some in this world who have strength of their own
Never broken or in need of repair
But there are some born to shine who can't do it alone
So protect them and take special care
Take care
And don't forget me
Please take care
And don't forget me
When you look to the heavens with someone you love
And a light shining bright from afar
Hope you see my face there
And then offer a prayer
And please let me be
Let me be that star
(Smash: Don't Forget Me)
As I belted out that last note, I closed my eyes tightly and gave it my all. When the song finished, I slowly opened my eyes and looked out at the audience. The room was silent for a few seconds, before the whole audience were on their feet; along with the judges.
"Wow." Cheryl breathed, and I swear I saw a tear in her eye. "That was just... Wow." She laughed.
"Thank you." I grinned, as I regained my breath.
"How old are you again?" Danii, asked me, with a grin.
"17." I replied.
"You look 17, but if we didn't know what you looked like, you would swear you were a lot older. You're voice is fantastic. Not once did you go off key... Wow." Dani laughed, and I thanked her.
Louis basically told me everything that the others had told me, and I couldn't wipe the grin off my face. When it came to Simon's turn to speak, he just sat there looking at me for God knows how long, making everyone nervous. The other judges, and the audience were all watching him in anticipation, and I felt my nerves flooding back.
"I think we've found our winner." Was all he said, and it was enough to make me cry.
"Thank you so much. You have no idea, how good it is to hear you say that." I told him, while trying to prevent myself from crying.
"I think it's time to vote." Simon said, and looked at the other judges and they all nodded. "Louis?"
"Yes." He replied.
"Danni?"
"100% yes." She grinned.
"Cheryl?"
"I would be stupid to say no... Yes."
"Well then Skye... You've got 3 yeses, you're going through to the next round."
Did I hear him right? I'm going through? It didn't completely register with me at first, until I realised the audience were on their feet again, and I heard the squeals of my two best friends running on stage, tackling me... Thankfully not causing us to hit the floor.
"Thank you so much." I called over to them, over Natalie's shoulder.
Natalie turned to Simon and grinned. "You uncle Simon, are on cool dude." This caused Simon to laugh, as I rolled my eyes and pulled the two of them off stage. As soon as we were out of sight, I immediately started crying... I'm through.
My dreams are finally coming true.
