Filk song: Torn

[Killin Joke]

I apologize again for reposting this (must be lost and lonely in some thread in the spoiler-archives) but I'm just dieing to know what you think of this "genre", if it's any good...



I didn't think I ever would have to dust of my Xena filk song and recycle it for similar sucking purposes... /uck/ So, with a few adjustments and without further adue, I give you:



TORN (original lyrics/song by Nathalie Imbruglia)



We thought we saw a show brought to life

It was warm, it came around like it was dignified

It showed us what it was to cry



Whedon couldn't be the man we adored

Doesn't seem to know - or seem to care what our heart is for

Well, we don't know him anymore



There's nothing where Tara used to lie

Will's magic sources have run dry

That's what's going on

Nothing's fine

We're torn

We're all out of Faith

This is how we feel

We're cold and we're ashamed

Tara lies liveless on the floor

Illusion never changed

Into something real

We're wide awake and we can see our perfect wiccans torn

Resets come too late

We're already torn



So I guess the web rumours were right

I should have seen just what was there and not some hopeful light

But they crawled beneath our veins and now, we still care, but have no luck

Gods, we miss them oh so much

There's just so many things

That Will can't touch

She's torn

(chorus)

There's nothing where Tara used to lie

Joss' inspiration has run dry

That's what's goin' on

Nothing's right, we're torn

(chorus)

This is a cool adaptation. Thanks for sharing!

Dude, I like it. I used to be a big "Torn" fan ... so it was nice to see this song adapted to "fit our needs."



Thanks for posting it.
