Song by Evanescence "Sweet Sacrifice"

I don't own the song nor Invader Zim

It's true, we're all a little insane.

But it's so clear, Now that I'm unchained.

A month without seeing him or hearing from him. No answer inside his base. In fact the house wasn't there anymore.

Fear is only in our minds,

Taking over all the time.

Fear is only in our minds but it's taking over all the time.

Did he go back to his planet? Did he just relocate far off from everyone, especially her? You poor sweet innocent thing. Dry your eyes and testify. You know you live to break me. Don't deny sweet sacrifice. She missed him around. She missed talking to her friend. She wrote to him constantly, and checked those messages just to see if there was a 'seen' on them, just to know he is at least alive.

One day I'm gonna forget your name,

And one sweet day, you're gonna drown in my lost pain.

During this time, she did go out a lot with, Bret, but there were times she thought of, Zim. She stuck with friendship with him for so many reasons. Bret was already dad and brother approved. Of course he was approved by Dib. He wasn't a lousy alien, in his opinion.

Fear is only in our minds,

Taking over all the time.

Fear is only in our minds but it's taking over all the time.

If Zim is gone forever. Will he forget her? She knew how his memory lapses got, but she hoped she remained a lasting impression.

You poor sweet innocent thing.

Dry your eyes and testify.

And oh you love to hate me, don't you, honey?

I'm your sacrifice.

She suddenly thought of how he went to hold her necklace. How gentle he was when he went to touch it. His finger did brush next to the side of her chest, but it was brief. Just a whisper. Suddenly she felt weak.

(I dream in darkness

I sleep to die,

Erase the silence,

Erase my life.)

Suddenly she realized she was probably using, Bret to escape some of the pain of the separation from, Zim. Bret was a really nice and cool guy, but she found herself bored. She found herself starting to hate her existence even more. It was a reminder of things. Mostly the pain of heartbreak.

Do you wonder why you hate?

(Our burning ashes, Blacken the day)

Are you still too weak to survive your mistakes?

(A world of nothingness, Blow me away.)

Where was he so she can talk to him? She always stared at her computer after doing other stuff, just in hopes of a message from him. Once someone is there constantly then they vanish... There is this void. A void that made her cry one night.

You poor sweet innocent thing.

Dry your eyes and testify.

You know you live to break me.

Don't deny.

Sweet sacrifice.

Finally relenting. She closed her laptop, placed it on her desk, stared out the window for a few minutes, and then crawled into bed. She waited for the song to end to shut her player off, laid on her side, and stared up into the sky through her window.

"Zim. Where ever you are. I miss you." Gaz said as a tear formed then slid effortlessly down her cheeks.
