Castle of Glass (Songfic)

Castle of Glass (Songfic). By Buzzy.

OA: Linkin Park.

This song seriously describes me right now. -.-

Take me down to the river bend

I stand at the river's edge, staring down into the darkness below.

Should I really do this?

I plunge in, feeling the water rush past my fur.

It's beautiful. I'm free at last.

Take me down to the fighting end

Soon my lungs begin to burn. I fight the pain.

I don't care if I die. No-one will miss me. My friends and family have left to join the stars, while I am left to endure the living world of my many nightmares.

I have to fight the pain. I can't go back up there.

Wash the poison from off my skin

My vision starts to go weird. Flashbacks of bad memories attack me.

I claw at invisible cats, feeling more water rush past me.

I need to be cleared of what I've done. I just can't take it anymore.

Show me how to be whole again

I can't do this. I can't.

But I can't return to the surface either.

I have to do this. I have to.

I need to join the stars, and leave my shattered spirit behind.

Fly me up on a silver wing

Past the black where the sirens sing

Warm me up in a nova's glow

And drop me down to the dream below

~

’Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass

Hardly anything there for you to see

For you to see

~

Bring me home in a blinding dream,

Through the secrets that I have seen

Wash the sorrow from off my skin

And show me how to be whole again

~

 'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass 

Hardly anything there for you to see

For you to see

~

 'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass 

Hardly anything else I need to be

~

 'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass 

Hardly anything there for you to see

For you to see

For you to see
