Subject: + mockingbird+

+ songstress wanders in, guitar held to spinal column by way of embroidered strap. sharp hazel gaze lands 'pon its target, stopping at nothing, finding the stage vacant. limbs set in motion to carry her at a steady pace into the public eye. ah, the sweet smell of the spotlight... seat is found 'pon a stool downstage center and instrument shifted to a comfortable position. microphone is adjust and confident words spoken into it, announced the song to come as Dashboard Confessional's "Again I Go Unnoticed." nimble fingers move to correct positions and tune begun, guitar pick strumming rhythmically throughout the entire song. strong and confident voice flows from unpainted lips, almost surprising for one who seemed so reserved +

So quiet
another wasted night,
the television steals the conversation.
Exhale,
another wasted breath,
again it goes unnoticed.

Please tell me you're just feeling tired
cause if it's more than that I feel that I might break
out of touch, out of time.
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed
cause I can't read your rolling eyes
out of touch, are we out of time?

+ heartfelt lyrics weave an intricate web o' emotion, fatale becoming lost in her performance. +

Close lipped
another goodnight kiss
is robbed of all it's passion.
Your grip
another time, is slack
it leaves me feeling empty.

Please tell me you're just feeling tired
cause if it's more than that I feel that I might break
out of touch, out of time.
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed
cause I can't read your rolling eyes
out of touch, are we out of time?

+ tune changes slightly, differing from the previously performed +

I'll wait until tomorrow
maybe you'll feel better then
maybe we'll be better then
so what's another day
when I can't bear these nights of thoughts
of going on without you

This mood of yours is temporary
it seems worth the wait
to see your smile again
out of the corner of your eye
won't be the only way you'll look at me then.

+ echo of the first verse begins, though becoming quieter and perhaps more mournful +

So quiet
another wasted night
the television steals the conversation
exhale
another wasted breath
again it goes unnoticed

 + final note tapers off into silence, performer slowly coming back to Earth and receiving polite applause with a smile, then stepping down from the stage to regain her senses +
