Story Notes:

The characters and situation belong to the brilliant J.K. Rowling, the tune and rythym to the awesome Joss Whedon. I own the lyrics.

Please read and review!
Chapter Notes: I'm not much of a poet, but I think this flows all right, especially if you know the original song! Enjoy!

Voldemort sings to Nagini on the eve of the Battle of Hogwarts.

VOLDEMORT:

I died,

Sixteen years ago,

But these can make me feel,

Like it wasn’t so.

Why would Potter come for me?

It’s not my time to go.

*

I’m not scared,

Not ashamed of what I feel,

‘Cause I’m not gonna die,

Not gonna slump or keel.

If Potter wants to come for me,

He’s gonna beg and kneel!

*

That’s good,

But if he got the snake,

I would be vulnerable,

And that’s a chance I just won’t take!

Which is why I’ve got my pet,

Locked up in a magic net.

‘Cause I won’t rest in peace!

*

I won’t rest in peace,

I won’t go to sleep,

I’ll take my soul and bury it,

In a cave miles deep.

Potter can’t lay my body down,

He’ll find no quick release.

I won’t rest in peace.

*

To Potter every chance I gave,

And he knows that I won’t rest until he’s in his grave,

But until then,

He’s in his earthy den,

I’ll never be safe again.

I won’t rest in peace!

*

I should feel invincible,

But I fear him, even though I’m a man who possesses,

There was some truth to Dumbledore’s guesses,

And my Horcruxes might be found,

Unless Potter’s dead and in the ground,

And if he is to my Horcrux led,

I’ll be dead!

*

I won’t rest in peace,

I won’t go to sleep,

I’ll take my soul and bury it,

In a cave miles deep,

Potter can’t lay my body down,

He’ll find no quick release.

I won’t rest in peace, no,

I won’t rest in peace!
