The Islander (By Nightwish)

An old man by a seashore
At the end of day
Gazes the horizon
With seawinds in his face
Tempest-tossed island
Seasons all the same
Anchorage unpainted
And a ship without a name

Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
The ones on their travels homeward from afar

This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago

The albatross is flying
Making him daydream
The time before he became
One of the world's unseen
Princess in the tower
Children in the fields
Life gave him it all:
An island of the universe

Now his love's a memory
A ghost in the fog
He sets the sails one last time
Saying farewell to the world
Anchor to the water
Seabed far below
Grass still in his feet
And a smile beneath his brow

This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago

Every thing I know about life I've learned by killing smart people AND EATING THEIR BRAINS. :tmnt4:

Thanks. :D I like how it turned out. :D
:iconroyalpain13:
dude, I love this :D

and icon's. . . you mean the dA icons? :D here!

:iconusername: some usernames do have - between the names *such as mean-cat* and would need that in the icon. To know if they do/don't need the - in the icon for it to work hover over their icon :) it'll show you exactly how you should type it *minus the :icon: part lol* and you just fill it in

Thanks. :D There's nothing you think I should fix?

Yeah...the dA icons. :k They hate me.

Okay. :D Thanks.

uhm, a few things but I'm not good with water scenes lol.

the rock on the left *in front of the wave* could be a smidge darker/wetter looking.

if it weren't for the fact I'm on my mac saying this, I'd say a smidge of saturation - but the mac looks different lol. It looked fine on my moms XP so the colors are fine XD

Even if you're no good, I'd still like your input. :D

Hrmmm...I'll try that. Should I post a different copy so you can see the diff.?
:iconroyalpain13:
yes, definitely, it'll also help other people so they don't say 'well do this' and it's something you changed from the original. Plus, people will be able to point out if something was changed too much or too little :) after wards you can remove the extras or send them to your scraps lol.
