Now you see me

Chapter One:

Terra's P.O.V

A grin was plastered on my face. The music was only just starting. The light cast a red gleam onto me. My fingers curled themselves around the microphone, the crowd screaming my name. I took a deep breath and let the words flow.

Now I will tell you what I've done for you -
50 thousand tears I've cried.
Screaming, deceiving and bleeding for you -
And you still won't hear me (going under)
Don't want your hand this time - I'll save myself.
Maybe I'll wake up for once (wake up for once)
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom

I'm dying again

I'm going under (going under)
Drowning in you (drowning in you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through
I'm going under

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies.
(So I don't know what's real)
So I don't know what's real and what's not (don't know what's real and what's not)
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore

I'm dying again

I'm going under (going under)
Drowning in you (drowning in you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through

I...

So go on and scream
Scream at me I'm so far away (so far away)
I won't be broken again (again)
I've got to breathe - I can't keep going under

I'm dying again

I'm going under (going under)
Drowning in you (drowning in you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through

I'm going under (going under)
I'm going under (drowning in you)
I'm going under

My voice rivaling both Amy Lee and Florence Welch. Hands reached toward me eagerly but I only smiled at them. My band mates smile at me toward the end, letting me know that time is almost up.

"Thank you all so much for coming tonight!" I said, causing a hush to fall. "You know that we are strictly a stay at home type of band. So thank you to everyone from out of town! We love you all! Goodnight!"

People scream their love for us as we walk off the makeshift stage. Goodness, this is crazy. But it's worth it. Being with friends and singing. It's so worth it.

"Another successful concert. Nice job!" Stacey crowed, skipping in front of us. She's my companion while singing and a complete troublemaker. But you won't find a better friend anywhere else.

"Stace, don't we always do a great job?" Elena said, taking a cigarette and lighter out of her pocket and lighting it. She's the guitarist and recently new to the band.

"Uh huh, thing I'm not looking forward to is humming those songs until practice," whines Brandon, the bassist. I snort causing him to look at me. "Ter, you are supposed to be on my side!"

"Oh poor baby, you'll live," I said, laughing. "Look how big we've become! We might need to find a bigger place soon."

"Babe, be nice," a voice said behind me. I turn and smile widely. Cedric. The drummer and the heartthrob. Also my boyfriend.

"Aww, but being nice is no fun," I said with a smile, slowing a bit so he can catch up. He smiles, grabbing my hand and leaning down to kiss me.

"Ewww!!! Girl on guy action," Elena said, smiling at us widely. I flip her off and smile back.
