The hero always gets the girl
Well not in this movie.
It's the final scene, the setting:
Outside in the cold of midnight
As I watch you walk away from
the scene of the crime.
Killed off again, I'm not the star.
The credits are rolling
And his name is where mine
should be.
Who is the villain?
There are two sides to this story
And then there's you, standing in the spotlight,
centre-stage...
I don't know where I stand.
My eyes are burning my insides out
Make this stop.
The tears shed tonight only
fuel the fire.
I think I'm drowning and burning
at the same time.
This feeling's too intense, too much
I can't stop it; make it stop.
Everything is so confusing, so unclear
But I promise there will be a sequel;
I'm such a sucker for happy endings.

Diggin' out my old ones, deep down in the bottomless archives of my hard-drive.
You can tell this one's old; I never write like this anymore.

Definately not one of my best but I thought I'd showcase it anyway. I think it's the 2nd half that lets it down a bit, do you agree? Feel free to give me your critique.

Incidentally, Act 5, Scene 3 is the last scene in Romeo and Juliet.
