Battle of the Bands

forty-one

[A/N: When Bill and Julie sing strange it's sang just like the version with Bill and Kerli, but Julie has Kerli's parts.]

-Julie's Point Of View-

I took a deep breath and took Tom's hand.

He pulled me out on stage and up to Bill's microphone before he went back to his own place on stage.

Bill smiled and whispered in my ear, "Do you know our newest song, Strange?" he asked.

I nodded.

He then turned to the audience and shouted into the microphone, "This is Julie Karr and we are going to sing Strange together!"

The audience cheered as Tom, Georg, and Gustav kicked in with the instrumentals.

Bill took my hand, squeezed it, and began to sing.

A freak of nature
Stuck in reality
I don't fit the picture
I'm not what you want me to be
Sorry

Bill then held the microphone between us so we could sing together.

Under the radar
Out of the system
Caught in the spotlight
That's my existence
You want me to change
But all I feel is

Strange
Strange
In your perfect world
So strange, strange
I feel so absurd in this life
Don't come closer
In my arms forever you'll be
Strange, strange

Now it was my turn to sing solo.

If I could sing for My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, and Kyle Burns I could certainly sing for an audience of strangers.

So I just opened my mouth and let it flow out.

If you want to fix me
Push me into your fantasy
If you try to get me
Sell me your personality

You try to life me
I don't get better
What's making you happy
Is making me sadder
In your golden cage
All I feel is

Strange, strange
In your perfect world
So strange, strange
I feel so absurd in this life
Don't come closer
In my arms forever you'll be
Strange, strange
Like me

Strange
When you touch me
Strange
When you kill me
All I feel is strange

In my dreams together we'll be
Strange, strange
In your perfect world
Strange
I am so strange
Strange
I am so strange

Strange, strange
In your perfect world
So strange, strange
I feel so absurd in this life
Don't come closer
It turns slowly
In my arms forever you'll be
Strange, strange
Like me

Slowly, the music faded and the audience went wild.

Only then did I notice Bill was still holding my hand.

He raised our hands high to the sky before we bowed together.

Tom ran over to us and stole the microphone away from Bill and shouted, "Wasn't Julie awesome?! Why don't we let her sing one more song?"

Again, the audience cheered before Tom turned to Bill and said, "Sing Resuce Me."
