Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
Cos' I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

"None of them get it do they?"

A mutter, he could only hear, broke the silence as the dark haired boy sat there, on his bed, staring in the mirror at his dark-self mocking him.

Wait, all this time that I have spent away
Makes me think that I might be okay,
For this, the deaf will have to wait
My head, is holding on to all those things you said
You taught me to be strong and get through it, the mist of darkness
In my head

"No one will ever feel what you feel; you're so pathetic.."

The boys face screwed up into a disgusted look.

Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
Cos' I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

"You're nothing.. always will be.. no one can change that.."

Growling he hissed,"Wrong. Someone will...someone will love me." The boy stood and paced, not wanted to look in the mirror.

Wait, no one said what's lost cannot be found
You are here to make it safe and sound,
Oh we, can make it, out alive
Fate, hath it's way when all that's learned is sin
Nothing really matters in the end,
As long, as you, are with me, friend

"Ha! Love you? The boy who walks around, smokes, gets in trouble.. the same person that can't even find a friend?"

Eyes narrowed as he peered out the mirror; catching a glimpse of purple hair and a sheer melody of music. A sigh escaped his lips,"Someone will..."

The shadow peered out the window..and a look of suspicion crossed his face.

Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
Cuz' I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

"Her? Really? Her!? Idiot.. stupid fool! You'll never get her! Trust me bro, it's just me and you.. I'm all you got!"

He ignored the mockary and stared, he took his offer up as a challenge. Nothing would stop him. He turned to his dark follower. "You just wait.."

No one can understand me
Like you can understand
No one can fill your shadow
Cuz you are all I am

"Forget it... Emmerson, you're a lost cause."

Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
Cuz I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause
