Sergeant Reynolds could never surrender; he was cursed
To believe that the side that was better did the worst
And the government's only in everybody's way
And there's no call to fight or to rally or to pray
Except for the sky
You can take my love
You can take my land
You can take me out where
I cannot stand
You can take me out there
Into the black
You can't take the sky
In the void he recruited a crew that he could trust
And a boat you might think was constructed out of rust
And a passenger list with a price upon their heads
And a plan just to live and try not to end up wed
And stay in the sky
You can take my love
You can take my land
You can take me out where
I cannot stand
You can take me out
Into the black
You can't take the sky
You can't stop the signal; it's too big
It will always reach a receiver
He'll always be free on Serenity
And he'll always have the cunning of a reaver
You can take my love
You can take my land
You can take me out where
I cannot stand
Go ahead and fight
I'm a standup guy
With my Firefly
You can't take the sky
Everyone's Got Secrets
May be sung to the tune of "Everyone's a Hero" from "Dr. Horrible's
Sing-Along Blog"

Sweet:
It's all so disconcerting
Forced to sing and dance
Some do it 'til they're hurting
They're in some kind of trance
So you wonder what your part is
Top 40 or B-side
But the fire in your heart is
The way that you'll get fried
Everyone keeps secrets in their own way
Everyone knows thing they shouldn't tell
To dance and sing them out--no chance of any doubt
That this is Hell
Everyone keeps secrets in their own way
Even though they all come out one day
(To Giles) You fear that you're restrictive
(To Tara) You're scared to lose your love
(To Willow) You're magically addicted
(To Buffy) You've lost your world above
(To Anya) There's that fear you have of bunnies
(To Xander) And yours of being wed
(To Dawn) And your worry number one is
They don't care what you've said
Everyone keeps secrets in their own way
Everyone has something they can sing
A step you have to take
A thirst that you can't slake, and oh, it stings
Everyone keeps secrets in their own way
You and you and you and... 'specially you
Now me? I'm just the suitor
I'm here to court my queen
A guy who doesn't care if he reveals a bunch of things best left unseen
Everyone keeps secrets in their own way
Everyone eventually fails
You all just lose control; a shame the human soul
Is just so frail
Everyone keeps secrets in their own way
So I'll collect my bride and make my...?
Best,
Perry
