Song: "Alive"
BUFFY: (verse one) Every single night, the same arrangement I go out and fight the fight. Still I always feel this strange estrangement Nothing here is real, nothing here is right.
I've been making shows of trading blows Just hoping no one knows
That I've been going through the motions Walking through the part.
Nothing seems to penetrate my heart.
BUFFY: (verse two) I was always brave, and kind of righteous. Now I find I'm wavering.
Crawl out of your grave, you'll find this fight just
VAMP 1: She ain't got that swing.
BUFFY: Thanks for noticing.
VAMPS AND DEMON: She does pretty well with fiends from hell But lately we can tell
That she's just going through the motions
DEMON: Going through the motions.
VAMP 2: Faking it somehow. [Buffy pushes him aside, stabs the demon] DEMON: She's not even half the girl she- [looks down at his wound] ow BUFFY: Will I stay this way forever? Sleepwalk through my life's endeavor?
HANDSOME GUY: How can I repay- BUFFY: Whatever.
BUFFY: I don't want to beeeeee... [walks up onto a raised platform ringed by statues, stops] Going through the motions Losing all my drive. I can't even see If this is really me And I just want to be- BUFFY: Aliiiiiive.
