Summary- Mirage feels torn when she realizes Buddy no longer seems to care
Torn
Song and lyrics by Natalie Imbruglia
I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm; he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry[/i]
Mirage sat at her desk, looking over at Buddy. He looked so much like the old Buddy she used to know … calm, relaxed, and innocent. His thumb laid rested in his mouth, and she couldn’t help but smile. On the outside, he always acted tough and mature, but he was really the young man she met in High School, rather immature but still lovable. She wished more than ever that he could be like he used to be …<br> She could remember the first time they met … he was the new kid- shy, and rather nerdy. Yet, his eyes seemed to light up every time he laid eyes on her. He really made a big comeback over the year. He became more laid back, and even gathered up the courage to speak to her in full sentences- not a stutter or a murmur.
Joey Baron, her jockey boyfriend, caught them talking. He beat Buddy to a bloody pulp, and Buddy just refused to fight back- he was against violence. Mirage broke up with Joey that day, and she stayed with Buddy ever since then.
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know, don't seem to care what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore[/i]
He’s so caught up with work, that he hardly notices her anymore. He used to give her a kiss on the cheek every now and then, assuring Mirage that he still loved her. Now- he seemed to avoid her every chance he got. Buddy Pine forgot how to love. … Maybe he just wasn’t interested in Mira anymore.
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what’s going on, nothing's fine I'm torn[/i]
She couldn’t even think of what to say to him when he’s around anymore. He’d often say something about his latest battle with a super, but that was it. Nothing said concerning their relationship … nothing at all. Mirage was torn between leaving him and staying with him. Maybe she should’ve stayed with Joey Baron. At least he did something with his life- he became a professional Football player. Buddy Pine became … a superhero. Like a little boy’s dream fulfilled.
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late, I'm already torn[/i]
She lost her faith in him ever becoming an adult. She must be a mirage to him … like she didn’t exist. A mere illusion in his pathetic little life. Someone so beautiful and perfect could never belong to Buddy Pine. Buddy always felt he never deserved her. And she was giving herself to him, and he simply turned the other cheek, or jumped at her touch.
He once said that he still loved her. That was an illusion. She sure as hell couldn’t see that.
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
To crawl beneath my veins and now
I don't care, I have no luck, I don't miss it all that much
There’s just so many things that I can't touch, I'm torn[/i]
She thought it was destined they be together … there was something there- she just knew it. She felt it in his kiss, how her heart raced and her blood rushed. Out of all the guys she ever dated, she never felt this way about any of them. She wanted so much to be with him, and he just tore her heart into pieces. He never showed her how he felt, and all Mira felt was used. She couldn’t look at him the same anymore. She wanted out of the island. She wanted to be free. She couldn’t bear to stay with him; she felt empty.
She was torn.
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late, I'm already torn.
Torn.
There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on, nothing’s right, I'm torn
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I'm cold and I'm ashamed bound and broken on the floor
You're a little late, I'm already torn.[/i]
