Good lyrics, very interesting (and I mean that in a complimentary way). It's a little difficult to figure out how some of the lines apply, though - it sounds like a self-pitying Gollum is speaking to Frodo (the bit about how no loyal friend was there for him - implication "You have Sam, I have squat" - conveniently forgetting that he KILLED his friend, oh well). Though the bit about taking back the lies would be rather rough on Frodo, who didn't do any such thing (how Gollum saw it, of course, is another matter).<P>I don't know, Birdie, maybe it could be a credits song? God knows the ending should be enough of a downer (possibly Frodo and Sam starting off into the blackness of Shelob's lair?) that it would be entirely appropriately. As you said, just as long as they don't stop things in the middle of, say, the Dead Marshes and have Gollum begin crooning sentimentally . It worked really well in "Toy Story 2" but this is just a touch different .
