    This song is called Bleed, It is from an old Evanescence EP disc... Most of you probably haven't heard it, I would recommend you try and find it somewhere... I can't give you any hints because my older brother found it, And I don't know where...

    ---

    How can I pretend that I don't see,
    What you hide so carelessly?


    I sit in her ship, Feeling the dark side... It's never
    been this obvious before... And it is eminating from
    my own Padawan...

    I saw her bleed,
    You heard me breathe,


    You've sensed me in the force, Just as well I gues- Wait!
    don't hurt her! It's not her fault!

    And I froze inside myself and turned away,
    I must be dreaming...


    This is sickening, I can't bear to watch you hurt her...
    This can't be happening... Not to you... My brother... My
    son...



    We all live,
    We all die,
    That does not begin to justify you...


    Yes, Your mother lived, Yes, she died, But how does
    that give you the right to determin who else will live or
    die?



    It's not what it seems, Not what you think...
    No! I must be dreaming...


    Surely there is a reasonable explanation to this...
    It's all a nightmare... I'll wake soon...

    It's only in my mind... Not real life...
    No I must be dreaming....


    But if this is all in my head then I have a really sick
    mind....



    Help me now, I've gone to tell someone,
    Tell them what I know you've done...


    I have to get the message out to the other Jedi about this
    trap you've set up...

    I fear you...

    I am deathly afraid of this monster you've become...

    But spoken fears can come true...

    Was it my teachings that made you into this? Is the monster
    inside me as well?



    We all live,
    We all die,
    That does not begin to justify you...


    Yes, Your mother is dead, You couldn't bring her back, But
    now your love is dying... Can you bring it back?

    It's not what it seems, Not what you think...
    No! I must be dreaming...


    Why can't I awaken? What is the Force trying to tell me?

    It's only in my mind... Not real life...
    No I must be dreaming....


    He couldn't have been wrong about the prophesy!
    But why would my subconcious create this evil world for me?



    We all live,
    We all die,
    That does not begin to justify you...


    She is dead, Dead from your attempts to save her, And the
    Jedi are all but extinct or in hiding, All thanks to you!



    It's not what it seems, Not what you think...
    No! I must be dreaming...


    I can't stay mad at him, It's my fault anyway, My mind did
    this to everyone... Why can't I wake up? I've dreamed these
    past twenty years of my life...

    It's only in my mind... Not real life...
    No I must be dreaming....


    So this is my lot... To dream forever of a galaxy gone wrong...
    All due to me leading my Padawan astray...



    Not what it seems...
    Not what you think...
    I must be dreaming...


    So we meet again at last... Even if I am only
    dreaming of this encounter... This reality of mine has gone
    on long enough, I don't care anymore...



    Just in my mind...
    Not real life...


    If you strike me down, I'll be more powerful then you can
    possibly imagine... I will wake up, And I will make
    everything right....

    I must be dreaming...

    And so, The irony is complete... I created this monster of you
    in my dream world, Now my monster will allow me to leave...

    I am deathly afriad of this monster you've become...

    But spoken fears can come true...

    Was it my teachings that made you into this? Is the monster
    inside me as well?


    [face_thinking] To watch the boy you had trained turn against everything that you had taught him would undoubtedly make you question yourself!

    I am not familiar with this song, but it certainly was inspirational to you! :)

    Good job! [:D]

    This can't be happening... Not to you... My brother... My
    son...


    You did such an amazing job with this! [:D] It is so haunting and eerie.. and the way you wrote it, it expresses wonderfully the confusion and betrayal Obi-Wan must have felt.

    Was it my teachings that made you into this? Is the monster
    inside me as well?


    Such a haunting thought... to wonder if all of this is his fault... wow.

    =D= =D= =D=

    I really enjoyed this! I am so glad that my Darth Mom (Star_Drifter) :) suggested I read this.

    Again amazing!

    That was very well done.

    It's too bad Obi-Wan carried around such guilt...

    Great job!
