Ever since the day
When you came to me
Nothing's been the same
You took control of me
Dawn watched as Buffy talked about the battle they had just lost. Lost several SITs and almost lost a best friend and to Dawn a big brother figure. Now. She didn't like way her sister was talking about the fighting. How she seemed all holier than thou and all.
Some things can't change
Inside my head
Your precious face
Now torn to shreds
Faith couldn't believe that Buffy wanted to go back to the vineyard and fight Caleb after they had there asses handed to them no two days before. B had no plan, nothing. And though she doesn't know it yet she also didn't have any soldiers. None that counted anyway.
I've tried to break away
From the chains you put on me
But I can't escape the pain
That you've become to me
Robin wood didn't know what to think. When he first heard about Buffy the Vampire Slayer he had heard of her greatness. Her courage. Not her stupidity. Or her Vampire fetish. He was beginning to think that Buffy wasn't the great one. He was thinking it was her friends that made her SEEM great. Her friends were the only reason she was alive. The only reason the world was still standing in some instances.
Some things can't change
Inside my head
Your precious face
Now torn to shreds
Rupert Giles did not want to stand and listen to his charge. He did not want to believe that she had gone this far from her origin. That she had changed for the worse. But, she had. And he felt that he could only blame his self. But, even as the guilt tore through him he couldn't stand and tell the slayer no. He couldn't make her change.
Shove me in the hole
Kick dirt on my face
Bury me alive
It's my only escape
Xander Harris watched as the slayer got no help. But also got no one against her. She turned to him thinking that she had someone on her side. Always on her side. Her little lap dog. Her constant companion through the years. She never doubted he would go with her. He knew that. But he also knew himself. He had reached his end. He couldn't fight himself about who she really was anymore.
Some things can't change
Inside my head
Your precious face
Now torn to shreds
For the first time in forever it seemed. Xander stood his ground. He said no. And everyone else followed suit. He had broke the chains that held him for so long. Whether that was for the best or worst would be revealed sometime down the road. But for the moment, he was glad.
