Brenda's POV 

I walked into Glee club and saw everyone laughing at Sam.

"What's so funny?" I asked.

"Sam here, likes Elvis Presley." Puck said.

"Why is that funny?" I asked. Sam looked pissed.

"Who likes him now anyway? I mean he died like, 30 years ago." Jake said.

"So, he's the king of rock n roll! Dude, y'all are crazy if you don't like him."

"She's right, you guys shouldn't be laughing at Sam. Elvis is the king of rock n roll!" Mr. Schue said.

"See! I'm not the only that likes him!" Sam said pouting. I laughed, and sat beside him.

"So, that's why, not this week, but next week, we are doing Elvis week! This week is Kelly Clarkson week!"

"Awesome!" The girls said. The boys groaned.

"Yes, who wants to go first?" I raised my hand but so did Rachel.

"Why don't you two do a duet?" Mr. Schue suggested. We smiled at each other and walked to the front of the room. The music started.

I will not make the same mistakes that you did

I will not let myself

Cause my heart so much misery

I will not break the way you did,You fell so hard

I've learned the hard way

To never let it get that far

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

I lose my way

And it's not too long before you point it out

I cannot cry

Because I know that's weakness in your eyes

I'm forced to fake

A smile, a laugh everyday of my life

My heart can't possibly break

When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid 

I watched you die

I heard you cry every night in your sleep

I was so young
