... I had it on repeat... all night ;)
I'm constantly updating this description, please forgive me...
I should mention that this one was done last year and I thought it would fit perfectly to the theme.. so it wasn't made specifically for this contest.

The song is from a folk-metal band named Finntroll from Finland and the lyrics are in Swedish..

Svart Djup

I vinden viskar dödens stämma
Onda stjärnor på himmelen stirra
Bland furor eka ett isande skrik
Urskogens klor i nattlig sky
Ur rymdens svarta djup...
Ur rymdens svarta djup...

Fem fot svart stål han i sina nävar klämmer
En svart skugga från jordens djupaste hål
Långa öron och knivskarpa horn
Under brynen glöda två illröda kol:

Nu lyfts värdet mot himmelens rand
Syndastålet nu frysa luft till is
Nu livlösa förbli var man, var kvinna
Domen falla och tystnad härska
O, rymdens svarta djup...
O, rymdens svarta djup...

[English translation:]

[Dark Depths]

In wind whisper the tones of death
Evil stars in the sky now stare
Beneath the trees echoes the freezing cry
Ancient forest's claws in the night sky
From vast dark depths...
From vast dark depths...

Black five foot blade clenches in his fist
Dark shade from the deepest hall of earth
Long ears and razorsharp horns
Under helmet glows two scarlet coals...

Now rises darkness towards heaven's boundaries
Lustful steel now freezes winds to ice
Thus lifeless remains man and woman
Judgement falls and silence reigns
Oh, wide dark depths...
Oh, wide dark depths...

Used a free brush for the pattern from www.thegraphicfrog.com.

Also sincere apologies for the SBS, my connection crashed and I was only able to upload the first very rough sketch... here's the rest.

Dead Can Dance...!

All my senses rebel
Under the scrutiny of their persistent gaze.
It took a lifetime to get here,
A journey i'll never make again.

For those who have accepted the burden of shame,
For the innocent only guilt will remain
And our lives will be forced to accomodate
The perpetrators of our own bastard race.

All my senses rebel
Under the scrutiny of their persistent gaze.
It took a lifetime to get here,
A journey i'll never make again.

I stand accused of thousand and one crimes,
A witness to events that led to this present time.
These traditions which bind our hands and keep us tied
Will never survive the greatest test of time.

Deliver me from those feverish eyes
That threaten to unbalance my state of mind,
For i must confess only to the smallest of crimes.
A sense of guilt. (5 years and 3569 days ago)

please don't tell me this isn't related to the lyrics, the mood of the pic has followed the theme of the song: living your life... please please view in hi-res, and comment on the pic itself instead of the lyrics.

the pic was inspired by Alberto Seveso's sperm shaping tecnique with my own understanding.

this was kinda finished in a rush cause I'm on a trip till wednsday, I'll enhance it and add sbs then.

source found on deviantart under stock section, vector shapes created in illustrator.
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Years ago a very special friend give me two gifts: one book, and a Cd.
A book from my favourite author and a song from my favourite group.
He told me “When you read the book, you have to listen the song. You will understand..”
The name of the Book is “Ocean Sea” (Oceanomare) written by Alessandro Baricco and the title of the song is “Elisewin” by Ashram.
This song is dedicated to Elisewin one of the character in the book, a beautiful young daughter of a local aristocrat, who's been stricken with a mysterious illness.

This is my favourite song, discovered in a special moment of my life. I still have the book and I can’t read it without listening the violin play..

This is colourless day of my life
Won't you sweep it away
There are fog and rain in your eyes
May I sweep you away

There is incredible cold in my life
Won't you sweep it away
There are millions of pearls in your eyes
May I sweep you away

Elisewin

What is happiness, sadness, life
Won't you sweep it away
Where are calm and shine of the sky
May it sweep us away

Elisewin
