“It’s not going to end”

*This fanfic song/poem is under my folder titled “Marble Hornets fanfics”. The main character in this is Tim Wright, one of the characters in the YouTube analog horror series, Marble Hornets. This references things that happen in the series in song/poem form. I don’t know how rhythmic or catchy I made this, please let me know. I also ship Tim x Jay in this song and I’ve tried to seamlessly put my non-canon ship with canon things that happened. I don’t know how well I did, so please let me know. The Marble Hornets analog horror series was created by Troy Wagner (he wrote spin-off books too!) and Gacha Club character designs are under my forum titled “My character designs<33[2]”. The end part is from a song called “Que sera, sera” because I thought it would fit.*

You got a visit from a friend

Or at least, that’s what Jay was

You haven’t spoken to him in a few years

Not after what happened then

It’s something you don’t remember, something your mind can’t explain

But still, you let him come over just the same

It’d be nice to see a friend

All he wants is a “screen test”

You were filming a movie with him, it wasn’t the best

It must have been a lot of work, no one can detest

Weeks pass by and you think of it not

You go to the clinic for your mental health, you go to work for your job

You swallow your pills like you’re supposed to

You take a drag off your cigarette to keep you calm

Life simply goes on

But goodness, what’s this?

Your friend has come back, is something amiss?

How did he know just where to go?

You haven’t seen him in years

But what the hell, give him your number!

He’s cool enough, why didn’t you do it sooner?

He’s asking you for tapes from that old film project

It’s not prime cinema, yet you give out the tapes anyway

No harm done, it’s all in good fun!

Except why is he acting just a little bit strange?

Is he not telling you certain things?

And you’re waking up in the woods

With that white mask by your side

You don’t remember how you got there

Your head is all blurred inside

Your heart is beating at that unnaturally high speed again

Hey, what’s wrong?

Aren’t you supposed to be getting better?

Why is all of this happening?

How come this has occurred when he’s come along?

You’re feeling kind of awful

Something’s not right

You search up the name of your film project

Good thing the videos were uploaded on a site

You’re watching through them all

You curl and uncurl your fists

Good god, all this time, he’s lied to you about this?

The memories are rushing back

It’s all starting to make sense

He wants information on fighting that Tall Man

And now that he’s back, so is that monster

For when the demon comes you put on the white mask

You run through the woods, then wake up with sorrows of the past

Your mind is getting warped, your seizures are coming back

No, no, no!

You were supposed to be okay!

You’re supposed to be alright!

Why’s all this got you in a fright?

He wants to meet in the parking lot

Sure thing, you’ll come

He says he wants to talk

No words needed, you don’t want to hear it anymore

You punched his face, now he’s lying on the floor

You’ve never snapped like this before

All that fury comes tumbling out of your mouth

You’ve been used like a tool

He said he was gonna tell you

But he’s just pointing his camera wherever he likes

What’s that going to do?

How is that going to help you?

Does he even care at all?

Or does he only want to film it all?

Did he think about how it would affect you?

You’re oh so upset you feel your yelling turn into not-quite fallen tears

You leave him all alone, maybe you can bury what happened far far away

Deep with your childhood memories, right where they should stay

You come back home

But nothing seems like it should

Days and nights go by

You try to live like you did before

But you feel this itch in your skin

Did it really end?

You can’t find your bottle of pills

Without them, you’ll fall again

You’re trying to fight it on your own

It’s got a hold of your mind, you can’t move your bones

It’s just like when you were a little boy!

No, no, no!

That was when you were weak

That’s why you’ve got no joy

You couldn’t fight it off and you’re not feeling too great

You meet up with him again

You teamed up him

Maybe if you both work together

You can end this horror forever

Onwards the two of you go!

You hotel-hop and collect tapes to watch

If you don’t think too hard on what’s going on

You can pretend that it’s only a trip you’re both going on

You take a drag of your cigarette

And you swallow some pill bottles you’ve kept

It’s not all sunshine and rainbows

But at least the both of you made amends!

He’s starting to feel somewhat more than a friend

And you might even be somebody he can depend

It’s not too bad to think of, in the end

There’s still the evil and malice but maybe there’s a fleeting chance of hope

Even with it all going on, there’s some kind of peace with you and him and the hotel

That you’ve never, ever felt before

Could it be that you’re finally free?

Searching for the tapes, trying to end the madness

Solace in one another, you’ve only got each other

You’re both in the woods, there’s no one else for miles

You’ve found a tunnel deep within the trees

Perhaps there’s a tape somewhere inside!

The both of you go in and-

Oh no!

The tall man is there!

The monster is watching you both with its faceless stare

It’s got ahold of you, it’s making you fall to the ground

Jay wants to help you

He doesn’t want to leave you all alone

You tell him to run, you need him to run

You can’t let him see you get hurt like this

He runs, you can’t

The tall man has trapped you in its power

You’re drowning in your pain

And now you’re being plunged into different dimensions of which you don’t know the names

In the woods and in the water

In the void where there’s slaughter

Then back to the woods again

Your head is ringing and your heart is stinging

You feel just like a child again

You run back to your car, he knocks on your window

He wants you to be okay

You say nothing, you drive away

It’s back to that old mental hospital your parents sent you off to

It’s all silent and in disrepair

It wants to decay away but it’s still there

You run inside, you have to die

You’ve pointed fingers at him but maybe it’s all your fault

After all, the tall man has followed you all your life

Always watching, always taunting

Never saying a single word to your ears

It brought you down to tears

Why didn’t you do a better job of keeping everyone safe?

Why couldn’t you keep it away?

Why couldn’t you just be normal, for God’s sake?

Just when you think you’re doing fine, it’s back to tear you down

The best characters have the most trauma

They’re alive to keep the drama

Your life is a movie the tall man likes to watch

But then, if your life’s a movie, then when will it end?

Won’t it ever end?

You should be able to choose since you can’t choose anything else

You’re all alone except for the tall man

You swallow all of your pills, you push down all your doubts

This is how it should be

It’s better this way

But you don’t die

By some miracle, you survive

You’re around to live another day

You’ve got to tell him, you’ve got to tell Jay

You meet up with him at the hospital

You spill out your life to him

You pour your heart out to Jay

You’ve never let yourself be so vulnerable before

It’s like you’re peeling yourself down to the bone

But you’ve got to let him know it was all your fault

If it hadn’t been for you then no one would have been affected

If it hadn’t been for you then you would have just dealt it yourself

And everyone would have been just fine

But Jay shakes his head and says:

“Shifting the blame is not going to work”

It’s no use trying to get him to see it’s all your fault

He says it’s more important to stop the tall man than linger in suffocating memories

It feels far too nice for someone like you

But on the both of you go

You’ve got to stop this nightmare show

You both investigate further and further

The more you look, the more twisted things you find

Your friend Alex aligns with the tall man, The Operator

He’s lost his mind

And where has your friend Brian gone off to?

You haven’t seen any signs

No matter, you and Jay still have one another

He’ll never find the tape

That tape, you’ve made sure to hide

Yet don’t you realize that everything comes up to be found?

Jay’s the investigator, always trying to solve the puzzle pieces

He’s found the tape and he showed up at your house with a knife

You didn’t tell him about that night

You didn’t tell him you took Jessica out to the woods

He’s been wondering where she was

That woman from the hotel, the only human he was with

Before he chased you he was trapped in a hotel with Jessica

But she disappeared and he was trying to find her

Jay can’t believe that you lied

He wants to talk, he’s pointing a pocket knife at you, there’s so many questions in his eyes

You snatch it from his hands, he doesn’t understand

You yell at him to “sit down!”, you push him to the ground

He’s got zip ties?

What was he going to do, end your life?

You tie him up

He needs to hear you out

No, you didn’t remember much of anything from that night

You don’t remember anything after you’ve been in the white mask

But when you found the tape you knew what had to be done

No, you weren’t going to hurt Jessica, you’d never hurt anyone unless you had to

You’re certain you were taking her to safety

She slipped from your fingers, Alex and the tall man took her away

She’s in a distant dimension, she’s as good as dead

If any of you try to find her, it may cost you both your head

It’s best to focus on killing Alex, The Operator’s human soldier

He’s the vessel of evil, ending him may get rid of the tall man

It won’t do if Jay’s fuming with distrust

You’ve learned from him to push aside ill will for the greater good

He’s mad but at least you tied him up for his safety and yours

If he’s too enraged he’ll harm you or get himself killed

So you’re going out to kill Alex yourself

You’re going to end it yourself

You’ll leave him tied up at your house

Where he’ll be safe and sound

You showed up at the closed down school

Alex is waiting for you

You’ve got a gun, you won’t let him run

Your horror movie is going to get a happy ending

But that hooded guy let Jay out

Jay’s at the school, he’s going to find Alex

Alex shoots him first, he bleeds on the floor

He’s dying frightened and alone, the tall man is watching

No, no, no!

You left him at your house

You knew that bad things would be abound

You wanted to keep him tucked away from your horrors

But you couldn’t even do that, could you?

You feel it all come crashing down cause’

Alex went off his rocker because of you

Brian’s all gone because of you

Jessica is trapped because of you

And Jay died because of you

Now you don’t know what to do

Oh Tim, don’t you see?

You’re the main character of this scary movie

All the torture and the fear

It’s supposed to keep you here

Your nightmares are The Operator’s dreams

Your terror is what keeps people glued to the screens

So go ahead and take a drag off your cigarette

Swallow those pills, live with those regrets

This movie doesn’t end, you needed this drilled in your head

“Que sera sera

Whatever will be, will be

The future’s not ours to see

Que sera sera

What will be, will be”
