"Numbly Fade to Black"

Disclaimer: Characters, Songs, Disclaimer not mine; Plot, probably not mine I know the general idea is over used thou.

Saceria- Well that was a little blunt

Soffia- The first chapter is called Numb, the song is by Linkin Park. Ryou's last though is the chorus from another Linkin Park song "Points of Authority" KB doesn't own it either.

KB- What is it with me and songfics lately?

Twins- ~'Shrug'~

KB- Oh well R+R and everybody's happy.

Soffia- No physical beating of Hikaris in this fic. ~'holds' up sign that reads "Outlaw Hikari Beating"~ But KB has done it before.

Saceria/KB- -_-U

KB- [I don't even like this style of writing]

A.N: When Ryou says Yami, he's referring to Bakura.

All in Ryou's POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~

"Why can't you just stand up for yourself? I'm not coming to your rescue anymore. You just need to learn, to become more like me."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

'I'm not like him. I can't do the things he does. I'm not evil, I don't want to be.'

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I've becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

'I don't want to be like you Bakura. I want to be more like me, and less like you.'

Can't you see that you're smothering me

Holding too tightly afraid to lose control

Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take

'Everything you want me to be is falling apart before your eyes. You're smothering me Yami. Are you afraid that I'm being myself, that I'm not being you? Or is this just another mistake?'

And I know

I may end up failing too

But I know

You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

'You like to think you're never wrong. You have to act like you're someone. You want someone to hurt like you. You want to share what you have been through. Is that what you're doing to me Bakura?'
