Work Text:
Call me a snake
Call me vain
Call me what you will
Think about it from my point-of-view
I had everything
Everyone wanted to be me
Then it crashed down
You know what he did to me
How he left me broken
Then I was saved by an angel
Saved? Can pain save you?
Does the fire burn away your sins?
Soon I met the one
His life in danger
Me his only hope
But to make him what I am
An angel, a demon
To make him mine
And I carried him all those miles
Wanting to kill him
Wanting to save him
Mile became feet
Feet became inches
The hardest thing I'd ever done
And he was mine
But no family would we have
For I became barren when I was saved
And now she comes
And my brother is happy
She completes him
But she wants to throw it away
Toss it like garbage
She has what I wish for
So I say no
Because I wish someone had said no
When it had been my turn
Now do you know who I am?
