Here's a song I'm working on..(real song for a real band.  Not like one of
those "If I wrote a theme song for an anime, this is how it would go"
things.  A real song.  I know it won't reach the same proportions as
"Stayin' Alive", but I'm rather fond of it)

[Lyrics, music are mine.  I'd say that they were copyrighted by Modern
Lizard Music, but I'm not sure what legal things I need to do to claim
that.  Rip them off if you like, until I get that copyright info]

{THis is about Ryouga.  I'm wondering
1) Does it capture the Ryouganess of Ryouga
2) Do the lyrics seem to work?
3) A few of the lyrics need replacing, but I can't think of any good
slant-rhymes to replace them with.
4) The "Like a moth" bit is mostly meaningless.  I had another song called
"Like a Moth" and I put it into this one.  "Like a moth" is a great thing
to chant, though}

Like a moth     
        we were ma-ade for each other
Like a moth
        You don't even want to bother
Like a moth
        I don't want to be a stranger
Gypsy moth
        It's the same thing every summer
 
 
Like a moth
        I've been fighting with the rivers
Like a moth
        If it wasn't for the weather
Like a moth
        If it only were a fever
Gypsy Moth
        But I know that it is neither 
Like a moth....
 
 
I would ask you "Would you ever?"
But I'm frightened of your answer
Like I'm frightened of the water.
So I wait for you to offer
 
 
Like a moth
 If it only were a fever
Like a moth
 Then I wouldn't be a stranger
Like a Moth
 Couldn't change things if I bothered
Gypsy Moth
 If it wasn't for the weather
Like a moth
 Might I be with you forever?
Like a Moth
 That's the thing I'd like to ask you
Like a moth
 But I know I couldn't ever
Gypsy Moth
 because I'm frightened of the answer
Gypsy moth
 I'm afraid it might be "never"
Like a moth
