Description This was a sad, sad attempt at making a full-blown lineless painting in OpenCanvas 1.1. I absolutely FAILED with the background... it's painfully obvious that I am inexperienced with backgrounds. Ugh.

I've learned my lesson, I shall never do it again.


This picture was inspired by Silver's theme, "Dreams of Absolution". Mmyep...


(Note: Lyrics may be a bit iffy. I think they're fan-written, and the song itself is actually kinda hard to understand at certain parts)

"(And every night, I lay awake)
(I find my reflection)

(And every night, it just stays the same)
(I dream of absolution)

In the night-light, do you see what you dream
All your troubles, are they all what they seem

Look around you, then you may realize
All the creatures saw with the light

And I might know of our future
But then you still control the past

Only you know if you’ll be together
Only you know if we shall last

(In the night-light)

In the night-light, do you still feel your pain
Or the valor you wait in novacaine
If you were able, would you go change the past
There's a furball with one last chance

And I might know of our future
But then you still control the past

Only you know if you'll be together
Tonight

’Cause every night I will save your life
And every night I will be with you
’Cause every night I still lay awake
And I dream of an absolution

’Cause every night I will make it right
And every night I will come to you
But every night it just stays the same
In my dream of an absolution

(In the night-light)

In the night-light, do you see what you dream
All your triumph and all you'll ever be

Look around you, then you may realize
Happiness lies trapped in misery

And who knows what of our future
We can all try to change the past

Only you know if you'll be together
Tonight

’Cause every night I will save your life
And every night I will be with you
’Cause every night I still lay awake
And I dream of an absolution

’Cause every night I will make it right
And every night I will come to you
But every night it just stays the same
In my dream of an absolution

[Instrumental]

’Cause every night I will save your life
And every night I will be with you
’Cause every night I still lay awake
And I dream of an absolution

’Cause every night I will make it right
And every night I will come to you
But every night it just stays the same
In my dream of an absolution

And you'll see (And you’ll see)

What you'll be (What you’ll be)

And you'll see

All you can (All you can)

And every night (And every night)
And every night (And every night)
And every night (And every night)
I will dream (I will dream)

And you'll see (And you’ll see)
That this is my dream (What you’ll be)
And you'll see
Every night
I will always dream (‘Cause every night)

And every night
And every night
I will dream (I will dream)"
-Dreams of an Absolution [Theme of SILVER], Lee Brotherton

The sound strange, because the lyrics ARE wrong. Here are the real lyrics:

"And every night, I lay awake
I find the conclusion
And every night, it just stays the same
I dream of absolution"

In the night-light, do you see what you dream
All your troubles, are they all what they seem
Look around you, then you may realize
All the preachers, all with their lies

And I might know of our future
But then you still control the past
Only you know if you'll be together
Only you know if we shall last

In the night-light, do you still feel your pain
For the valor you wait; it never came
If you were able, would you go change the past
To mend a faux paux with one last chance

And I might know of our future
But then you still control the past
Only you know if you'll be together
Tonight

'cause every night I will save your life
And every night I will be with you
'cause every night I still lay awake
And I dream of an absolution

'cause every night I will make it right
And every night I will come to you
But every night it just stays the same
In my dream of an absolution

In the night-light, do you see what you dream
All your triumph and all you'll ever be
Look around you, then you may realize
Happiness lies trapped in misery

And who knows what of our future
We can all try to change the past
Only you know if you'll be together
Tonight

'cause every night I will save your life
And every night I will be with you
'cause every night I still lay awake
And I dream of an absolution

'cause every night I will make it right
And every night I will come to you
But every night it just stays the same
In my dream of an absolution

'cause every night I will save your life
And every night I will be with you
'cause every night I still lay awake
And I dream of an absolution

'cause every night I will make it right
And every night I will come to you
But every night it just stays the same
In my dream of an absolution

And you'll see...
What you'll be...
And you'll see...
All you can be...

And every night...
And every night...
And every night...
I will dream...

And you'll see...
That this is my dream
And you'll see...
Every night...
I'll always dream...

And every night...
And every night...
I will dream...

Yeah, I actually have the actual lyrics a few times on here... ; I've just never gotten around to fixing them on the deviation, as it's not too much of a big deal, I don't think. Thanks though.

I palyed the original song while I read the lyrics, and I started laughing when I heard the word "furball". THe lyrics are indeed wrong, but interesting. Other than that, I really like the picture, but I'll refrain from saying something...wrong...with Silver's leg.

Everyone's pointed out the flaw with his leg. x_x; I've actually considered just deleting the image from my gallery since it's been taken that way so many times, but whatev.

Thanks for the comment, and yeah.. I know the lyrics are way wrong. I have the actual ones now, I just don't feel like updating this pic since it involves looking at it... and I hate it with a passion.

Oh...sorry. You shouldn't think about deleting the image because of that. You hate your picture with a passion?

It's a really good piece, but there's one thing about it that really looks dodgy that im sure has allready been pointed out, but since you don't desire critique then i won't say it.

Gintoki [2007-02-01 21:59:42 +0000 UTC]

FINALLY!! After listening to the song over and over and over and over and trying to find out what he says at the "furball" part, I finally figured out what he's saying!

All this time, I was in denial, thinking: "no way! This song is amazing, he can't be saying something stupid like 'theres a furball' in it"

Allow me to share the correct lyrics with you

The wrong lyrics are:
If you were able, would you go change the past
There's a furball with one last chance

The correct lyrics are:
If you were able, would you go change the past
Mend a faux pas with one last chance

It makes more sense, a lot more sense, because now it's like "If you were able, would you change the past by fixing a mistake?". So yeah... The two words sound the same too... Furball... Foh pah... [link]

I love this song so much, and I'm planning on using it as a background song while giving my girlfriend a gift on valentines
Gonna give her a big red chest that's packed with roses. In the middle is an ipod that has this song only so she can hear it while reading a letter I wrote to her. At the end of the letter I'll tell her to dig deeper into those flowers, and inside it will be a nice ring with an engraving that says "every night i will be with u"
now if you'll excuse me... My ears hurt... I'm half deaf now! lol
Enjoy ^_^

wow, I didn't know that there is any french in the lyrics. Why is he using french? faux pas... that is french, right?

Nice idea for your valentine's day BTW. I am sure she will enjoy your idea, it is just sweet! ^^

Well drawn, but the way you put the copyright over the whole picture is a bit of an eyesore...was that really neccessary?
No offence, though, the picture turned out great, I especially like the picture in the background...picture or window? Gah, sorry, my brain is working kinda slow right now.
