Song Fics

[pantstheterrible]

I'm starting to write song fics. Got two of them done, two in the developing stages in my mind. Well, three maybe.

Here is one. This is about Harry unmasking the Death Eaters.

EVERYBODY’S FOOL (SONG FIC)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Perfect by nature
Icons of self indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that

Never was and never will be
Have you no shame, don’t you see me?
You know you’ve got everybody fooled.

The world sees you as the leaders. You are the richest and the most pure wizards. They look up to you and love you. They think you are good. Ha! If only they knew! If only they knew how terrible you really are. How evil and how self serving. If only they knew what you do in the dark of night where they can’t see.

Look here she comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh how we love you
No flaws when you’re pretending
But now I know she

Never was and never will be
You don’t know how you’ve betrayed me
And somehow you’ve got everybody fooled

They think you’re so perfect. They hero worship you. If only they knew how you’ve betrayed them or how you’ve deceived them. If they knew how much you’ve lied. How much you’ve cheated and stolen. How many lives you’ve ended and how many families you’ve torn apart.

Without the mask where will you hide?
Can’t find yourself lost in the lie.

If they knew, what would you do? Where would you hide? They wouldn’t like it, they’d come after you. They’d rip and tear you. They’d exact revenge and leave you with nothing. Perhaps even without your soul.

I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don’t love you anymore

Well, I know. I know and I’ve told them! I told them and they believe me. What are you going to do?

It never was and never will be
You’re not real and you can’t save me
Somehow now you’re everybody’s fool.

This one is to 'Tomorrow" by Avril Lavigne. It's about how Harry feels towards Dumbledore after their convo at the end of OotP.

And I want to believe you
When you tell me that it will be ok
Ya I’ll try to believe you
But I don’t.

Dumbledore, you say I’ll get over Sirius. That just isn’t true. This new scar will never go away. The only way the pain will go away is if I forgot. I’d like to forget if it would stop the ache, but I can’t. How can you forget the closest thing you’ve had to a father? How could you forget Sirius? You didn’t love him as I did. You can not know how I feel. You say it will be ok, but how can my life be ok if the people I love always die?

When you say it’s gonna be,
It always turns out a different way.
I try to believe you
Not today…<br>
I used to believe you. I accepted all you said like a good boy, a gullible boy. You were infallible in my eyes. How could I have been so blind? You’ve made to many terrible mistakes. You’ve broken my faith in you. I just don’t trust you anymore. I try to accept what you tell me, but I can’t.

I don’t know how I’ll feel
Tomorrow, tomorrow
I don’t know what to say
Tomorrow, tomorrow is a different day.

Maybe if I let my grief pass, I’ll trust you again. Perhaps I’m just blinded by anguish. Maybe I will believe you when the pain lessons. I might not be so angry. I don’t know what to say to you anymore. How can I trust you? Maybe tomorrow will be different.

It’s always been up to you
It‘s turning around, it’s up to me.
I’m gonna do what I have to do
Just don’t.

You’ve always had all the answers. You called all the shots. You fought Voldemort. You decided everything. That’s the way it’s been. Well, it’s on my shoulders now. The end is up to me. You can’t take my place; I’ve got to do it. Stop shielding me. I can handle it on my own. You’ve failed me and I don’t need your help. I don’t need you misguiding me. Don’t interfere, it’s my turn.

Give me a little time
Leave me alone a little while
Maybe it’s not too late
Not today…<br>
I need a break from you, to find myself. I don’t need you whispering in my ear telling me what to do. I need to decide for myself. I can do it on my own. Just give me a chance and maybe I’ll give you a second shot. I need to be on my own. Just go away and maybe someday I’ll forgive you. But that day’s not today.

And I know I’m not ready
Maybe tomorrow

I’m not ready to face you, to face the world. These wounds are still fresh. I need to think. But tomorrow things might change. I might be ready.

And I want to believe you
When you tell me it will be ok
I try to believe you
Not today…<br>
