"Are you ready?" her voice rang into the mike and students cheered.

"This first song is called Bring Me To Life. I wrote it recently, when I let the person who tore down my walls slip away," she said sadly. Nodding to her band, she turned to face the crowd, then sat at the piano.
Her fingers moved skillfully over the keys as the introduction to the song began. She sang.
How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
The band started playing with her as she sang louder. Her voice was familiar but at the moment, I couldn't place it.
Without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home
Whenever there seemed to be an echo, the guitar player would talk into his mike. It actually sounded pretty intimidating.
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become
now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life
frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
only you are the life among the dead
all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become
(Bring me to life)
I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
(Bring me to life)
Students erupted into cheers once the music was over. I admit it, I was among them, standing and clapping. The singer stood and grabbed a guitar. The hood of her cloak covered her face.
"This next song is called I'd Lie. I wrote this today. The reason... Is because I fell in love with my best friend, no one knows. If someone asked me if I love him, I would lie," she said.
She grabbed a stool and her band prepared for the next song. Setting herself rightly on the stool in front of the mike, she pulled her acoustic guitar in front of her. "Enjoy.
I don't think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells me about his night
And I count the colors in his eyes
He'll never fall in love he swears
As he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing cause I hope he`s wrong
I don`t think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke I fake a smile
That I know all his favorite songs
And..
[chorus:]
I could tell you his favorite color`s green
He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth
His sister`s beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you asked me if I love him,
I'd lie
He looks around the room
Innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn't a light go on?
Doesn't he know that I've had him memorized for so long?
He sees everything black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don't let nobody see me wishing he was mine
[chorus]
He stands there then walks away
My god if I could only say
I'm holding every breath for you...
He'd never tell you but he can play guitar
I think he can see through everything
But my heart
First thought when I wake up is
My god he's beautiful
So I put on my make up
And pray for a miracle
Yes I could tell you his favorite color`s green
He loves to argue oh and it kills me
His sisters beautiful he has his father's eyes
And if you asked me if I love him
If you asked me if I love him
I'd lie
She stopped playing and looked up. She slung her guitar back around her back and stood up from the stool.
"We have one more song, regretfully," the singer said. Students groaned. I was among them. "Hey hey hey, none of that! If you're a good audience The Black Secrets will play more," she said, a smile in her angelic voice.
The crowd yelled, clapped, and whistled. I saw a hand come from the black cloak to the ties that held it together. I was expecting her to take it off, but all she did was clasp it.
"Alright this one is called Papercut."
The band started up again and she turned to face her band. Her guitarist put away his instrument and stood beside her, facing us. Suddenly the girl spun and faced us as the guy danced behind her. (look at the video) Damn this girl can sure rap!
The girl raps this part:
Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right underneath my skin
The guy rocks out and sings this part, then the girl starts dancing behind him:
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
The girl steps up and starts rapping again, the boy going back to dancing:
I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first
But I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can
But everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath the skin
The boy once again starts thrashing about and sings, the girl dancing with him wildly:
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
The band whispers into the mike connected into their instruments
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
They both sing these parts, dancing around each other as the band plays their instruments:
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
(The sun)
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath the skin
(I feel the light betray me)
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
(The sun)
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
(I feel the light betray me)
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
(The sun)
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
Suddenly, the cloak blew off the girl, the strings untied right at the end and she was crouched, breathing heavily. Looks like she did intend to take the cloak off after.
I gasped when the spotlight hit the girl. I would know that hair anywhere. Neon blue bangs, red tips, and green and black skulled extensions. Bella. She stood slowly and looked up. Her eyes were glowing! Like literally glowing. The right eye was glowing with blue and green, the left glowing with gold and brown.
Suddenly, Bella was bent at the waist as green smoke poured onto the stage. Green strobe lights were flying as the band played slowly, then grew faster.
Bella was bouncing slightly as she was bent over, and she snapped right back up, a mike at her lips. She was grinning. (Watch the video for One Step Closer and that's how she looked)
I cannot take this anymore
Saying everything I've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less you'll say
You'll find that out anyway
Just like before...
[Chorus:]
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
I'm about to break
I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before...
[Chorus]
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Shut up when I'm talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up when I'm talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up
I'm about to BREAK
[Chorus]
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
You could clearly see she was out of breath but she was smiling as she went around and high fived her band. I could clearly see now why they called themselves The Black Secret. Her band was stilling wearing their black cloaks and you couldn't see who they were. It kept their identities a secret.
"Encore! Encore! Encore!" the crowd of students yelled. Bella smiled at her new found fans and looked right up at me.
"You want more!" she yelled as she looked at me. The entire student body screamed, all except the sluts. They were sitting in their seats, glaring at Bella. "Here is the next song!" she screamed as a large screen came down from behind her. A projector light beamed on it, showing a professionally made music video.
The band started playing along with the music video, Bella and her guitarist singing in sych. (look up the video for Crawling, it's just like that, but replace the band with Bella's)
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
There's something inside me
That pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear
Is never ending, controlling
I can't seem to find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence)
(I'm convinced that there's)
(Just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort, endlessly has pulled
Itself upon me distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence)
(I'm convinced that there's)
(Just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
There's something inside me
That pulls beneath the surface
Consuming
(Confusing what is real)
This lack of self control I fear
Is never ending, controlling
(Confusing what is real)
Bella stopped singing and smiled. She was breathing heavily.
"That was the last song guys. Have a nice day!" she called as she waved and went backstage. Her band came up behind her and wrapped her cloak around her shoulders, pulling the hood over her head. Their own cloaks swirled around their feet.
All of the students went back to class, talking about how the mini concert was. Well, the sluts were glaring at the ground as they stormed past. I stayed behind and went backstage after Bella.
She was there, alone. Her band left already. Good. Coming up behind her I coughed.
"Bella, your concert was awesome. You really are talented," I said, smiling at her. She turned and faced me. She stepped closer.
"You really think so?" she murmured, looking into my eyes with her different ones. I nodded and stepped closer so our bodies were touching. I leaned in and left some space between our lips.
"Yes. You were wonderful," I whispered. Bella closed the distance between our lips and kissed me softly. I wrapped my arms around her.
Well what do you think? Pretty long huh?
Review and tell me how the concert was. I really want to know if you liked it or not.
