FILK: You're Home (Forgive Me, Love)

[newtraileverytime]

MEDIA: Filk (text)
ORIGINAL SONG: Your House, by Alanis Morrisette (acapella). (lyrics and listen here)
SUMMARY: After going to Wonderland, Natasha is a different person, and Clint doesn't want to believe that. "Would you forgive me love, if I've become something new?"
CONTENT NOTES/WARNINGS: Trauma-induced identity problems and what could probably be called an unhealthy relationship (it's complicated).

CREATOR'S NOTES: For a better overview of what the hell happened in this verse, see this fic.

LISTEN: This will happen... eventually.

[Clint]
Once we brought you back
You had changed your laugh
Your voice and your eyes and the way that you moved
You sang made-up songs
Bled for too long
Something had gone wrong
And you said you don't fit
You want to go home--
So I held tighter

[Natasha]
Will you forgive me love, if I dance on broken glass?
Will you forgive me love, if I bleed in your bed?
Will you forgive me love, if I try to touch the moon?

[Clint]
I promised a fix
You'd settle in--
I promised a lot of things I couldn't give
But as the date changed
Things stayed the same
Wonderland still held you
And you said what I want
Was now someone else--
And I just held tighter

[Natasha]
Would you forgive me love, if I never became her?
Would you forgive me love, if I try to get back?
Would you forgive me love, if I've become something new?

[Clint]
I waited and watched
Heard how you talked
And one day I realized just what you had said
You said you'd changed and
You said you're lost and
I couldn't hear you
And oh, how I tried to find her--
But everything's changed
And I have to let go

So forgive me love, for how I tried to change you
So forgive me love, for the things I still want
So forgive me love, but I couldn't bring you home
