        Nin

        There is a place that still remains
        It eats the fear it eats the pain
        The sweetest price he'll have to pay
        The day the whole world went away

        Default imagination- just an illusion


        this is my final version:

        imagination- just an illusion

        Could it be a picture in my mind
        never sure exactly what I'll find
        only in my dreams I turn you on
        here for just a moment then you're gone
        it's just an illusion – illusion – illusion

        Illusion – illusion – illusion – illusion

        Default Behold! The Night Mare


        Here's my final, thumb and a detail shot Awesome topic and some awesome entries no doubt!

        Based on the Smashing Pumpkins son 'Behold! The Night Mare':

        I've faced the fathoms in your deep
        Withstood the suitors quiet siege
        Pulled down the heavens just to please you
        Appease you
        The wind blows and I know

        I can't go on, digging roses from your grave
        To linger on, beyond the beyond
        Where the willows weep
        And whirlpools sleep, you'll find me
        The coarse tide reflects sky

        And the night mare rides on, and the night mare rides on
        With a december black psalm
        And the night mare rides on
        What I fear is lost here
        The wind blows and I know

          Default Old Black Rum


          Alright, just tossing my hat in the ring for the fun of it. This has been a fun challenge, every one on this forum has. I can't tell you how much it's helped me and I appreciate those people that volunteer to run these things. Not to mention all the people that participate and critique. It's an amazing community here.

          Now, enough mushy stuff <3 Here's the song lyrics and my submission:

          I drank sixteen doubles for the price of one
          Trying to find the courage to talk to one
          I asked her for a dance
          Not a second glance
          My night had just begun

          Well I drink to the father and the holy ghost
          I'm kneeling at the altar of my nightly post
          So I'll raise a glass, not the first nor last
          Come join me in this toast

          Because the old black rum's got a hold on me
          Like a dog wrapped round my leg
          And the old black rum's got a hold on me
          Will I live for another day?
          Hey, Will I live for another day?

          Well the queen of George street just went walking on by
          Walking on by with some guy who don't care
          That she stood in line
          Since half past nine
          And spent three hours on her hair (On her hair!)

          Well her friend is looking at me with an evil grin
          I think the bloody racket might soon begin
          I must have said some thing
          To the George street queen
          The boys are joining in!

          Because the old black rum's got a hold on me
          Like a dog wrapped round my leg
          And the old black rum's got a hold on me
          Will I live for another day?
          Hey, Will I live for another day?

          So I drank all of my money
          And I slept out in the rain
          Everyday is different but the nights they're all the same
          You never see the sun on the old black rum
          But I know I'm gonna do it again!

              Why do I always forget bout those deadlines :/
              Well, here's mine, final edit done on my super slow netbook

              Good luck to all of ya!

              Ulver - Eos
              The sun is far away
              It goes in circles
              Someone dies
              Someone lives
              In pain
              It is burning
              Into the thin air
              Of the nature
              Of a culture
              On the dark side
              Under the moon
              The wolves gather

                Default Rain down...


                The inspiration was the lyrics to Paranoid Android by Radiohead:

                http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InApV...ailpage#t=204s

                Rain down, rain down
                Come on rain down on me
                From a great height
                From a great height... height...

                ------------

                As I have said in the WIPs thread, I wasn't aware of the challenge when I started this piece a couple of days ago, but although no one told me so I figure it's fine for me to post considering that it fits the brief.

                Zephyri: Nice job! It's great to see the impressionistic handling of the horses in the detail shots too.

                  Default winter song


                  My voice a beacon in the night
                  My words will be your light
                  To carry you to me
                  Is love alive?
                  Is love alive?
                  Is love
                  They say that things just cannot grow
                  Beneath the winter snow
                  Or so I have been told
                  They say we're buried far
                  Just like a distant star
                  I simply cannot hold
                  Is love alive?

                  Black Mirror by Arcade Fire

                  I walked down to the ocean
                  After waking from a nightmare
                  No moon, no pale reflection
                  Black Mirror, Black Mirror

                  Shot by a security camera
                  You can't watch your own image
                  And also look yourself in the eye
                  Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror

                  I know a time is coming
                  All words will lose their meaning
                  Please show me something that isn't mine
                  But mine is the only kind that I relate to
                  Le miroir casse
                  The mirror casts mon reflet partout
                  Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror

                  The black mirror knows no reflection
                  It knows not pride or vanity
                  It cares not about your dreams
                  It cares not for your pyramid schemes
                  Their names are never spoken
                  The curse is never broken
                  The curse is never broken

                    This is my first time posting on CGHub (so excited) and I'm really looking forward to participating more. Such great work, everyone! Thanks for the fun challenge. I learned a lot from this activity, including how to use reference more effectively and doing lots of studies.

                    Inspired by the lyrics from Own Stunts by Breathe Owl Breathe:

                    I don't know
                    Just because
                    I wanna start doing my own stunts

                    ...

                    Take off my turtle neck
                    Underneath there's a bulletproof vest
                    You never knew what made it though
                    Red-breasted crows speak
                    Grass stains on my shirt
                    It's all because of her
                    Laughter
                    After
                    It didn't hurt
                    It didn't hurt

                    ...

                    This is not what I'm used to
                    Cross my heart and hope to...
                    Cross my heart and hope to...
