One line from "Pardon Me" by Incubus

Pardon Me

Bloody Hell! She rescinded my open invitation and shut the

door in my face, but what did I expect?

I'm a bloody, stupid fool to think she would respond

favorably to being chained up and threatened with death like

my insane ex would. I love her more than anything in my

life or unlife, and now I've lost *any* chance I might have

had by my unthinking, idiotic actions.

I've got nothing left to hope for, no chance of ever again

experiencing the sunshine she brought into my dark unlife.

So, come tomorrow morning when she ventures outside, I will

be standing in the bright sunlight singing at the top of my

lungs, "Pardon me, while I burst into flames!"

Goodbye Buffy, I can't live without the *possibility* of

you.
