=/ I just did an assignment for the bitch. (Mrs. North) I got to pick it, so I chose "summarize a book in song lyrics".... I did the book "Thirsty" by M.T. Anderson... It's about vampirism, and this guy that is turning into a vampire, and he's going insane because of his thirst for blood that he can't quench because he has respect for the human race or whatever... It's really interesting... But people are saying I'll scare Mrs. North. Blahhh.

“Thirsty”

All Chris wants is a normal life
But that he shall not have
For fate has sent him horror and strife
This confusion is driving him mad

(Chorus)
Having trouble sleeping at night
This thirst fills him with horror and fright
Grab life by the horns, and hold on tight
This will be a bumpy ride.

Thinking of Rebecca Schwartz
Brings him back for a while
But, it all goes back to chaos, of course
Yeah, it all goes back to chaos

His only two friends, Jerk and Tom
Don’t help him out through these times
He has to tell lies to his dad and mom,
And they are a bit suspicious about what’s going on

The sight of blood sends shivers down his back,
His canines turning to fangs
It’s just so tempting, so hard to hold back
Before longer, he’ll go insane

(Chorus)

Chet, the celestial being claims to be with the forces of light
But with all this deceiving,
That cannot be right
He claims he can cure his vampirism (this could be his only hope, yeah, this could be his only hope)

Chris needs to defeat the vampire lord,
Tch’muchgar, it’s not a very common name
Will he rein power over all, or will he wither away?

(Chorus)

It all turns out that Chet had lied
To the entire vampire race
Chris just bent over and cried,
As the celestial being laughed in his face

After being kicked around a bit,
Chris exclaimed to Chet, in rage
“I helped you, I did everything you asked, so please just let me change!”
With this, Chet laughed, and started to walk away…
But before he left Chris, all alone in the woods, he coolly turned to say:

“Christopher, my boy, let me tell you this,
I could remold you to human form, but you would not be yourself,
Everything about you is vampiric,
Your jaws are vampire jaws, your teeth are retractable vampire teeth.
Your heart is a vampire heart,
With little wicked trendrils strapped around your ribs, strangling your other organs.
Your mind—Cold and distant, hungry—everything—
You’re a vampire, Christopher, an honest to god vampire.”

He was proud of every lie,
And with that he left Christopher to die,
Alone, empty, and oh so thirsty…


Gay, I know... But... I donno... Leave comments?
