Dying
You see the cripple dance
Pay your money, baby
Now's your chance
Eyes like cyanide

I am so dumb
Just beam me up
I've had it all forever
I've had enough

Remember, you promised me
I'm dying, I'm dying, please
I want to, I need to be
Under your skin

Our love is quicksand
So easy to drown
They steal the gravity, yeah
From moving ground

Remember, you promised me
I'm dying, I'm dying, please
I want to, I need to be
Under your skin

And now I understand
You leave with everything
You leave with everything I am
Withering

And now I know that love is dead
You've come to bury me
There's nothing left here to pretend
Anything

Remember, you promised me
I'm dying, I'm dying, please
I want to, I need to be
Under your skin

I'm dying, I'm dying, please
Under your skin

Under your skin



Notes: This is the first of two vids I made for this year's VividCon -- the second should be up tomorrow. This was for the fabulous laurashapiro's Newbies Rock vid show.

There is no way that I can provide enough thanks for elynross for this one, as she went far, far above and beyond the call of duty for any beta. Without her, it would have been a much different vid.

I appologize for the tardiness of my response, but it appears that gmail was eating my LJ comment notifications.

Thank you ever so much for watching, and for taking the time to leave such a kind piece of feedback. I think you're right, in that there are two completely separate ways to approach TW -- there's not much in between ground to work from. To be honest, in my mind the song fit so well that I was almost wary of using it -- it was almost too apt. It certainly helped me with setting the atmosphere for the vid itself.

that the short seasons of British TV are hell on greedy fans.
It's quite a shift from the standard 24-episode North American seasons. Personally, I think I preffer the shorter seasons, because when done right, it forces the writers to cut out the fat. If you want to tell a good story, there's not much room for the non-essentials, something I think Life on Mars used to particularly good effect.

If your external drive ever restarts (+ouch*)

All external drives have been found and verified! Thank you for your concern. *g*
