Well, because we haven’t had a lyric challenge for some time now, let’s have one this week for the song “I Will Follow You Into The Dark” by Death Cab For Cutie. It’s quite the sad song, which would only make it very ideal for a lot of CLAMP icons, I guess. ~_^ The lyrics can be found behind the LJ-cut below.
You may use any CLAMP artwork or image, as long as your icons feature at least 3 consecutive lyrics from the song as icon text. You may add in other text but the lyrics you’ve picked must be in their original order. Also, please make sure the lyrics are of a readable size.
Everything else is up to your talented selves, just don’t forget that you’re not allowed to use downloaded/pre-made icon resources. Use your graphic program’s pre-installed accessories and/or make your own.
I WILL FOLLOW YOU INTO THE DARK
Death Cab For Cutie
Love of mine, someday you will die
But I’ll be close behind
And follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no’s on their vacancy signs
If there’s no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I’ll follow you into the dark
In Catholic school, as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
“Son, fear is the heart of love”
So I never went back
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no’s on their vacancy signs
If there’s no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I’ll follow you into the dark
You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes
Are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It’s nothing to cry about
‘Cause we’ll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no’s on their vacancy signs
If there’s no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I’ll follow you into the dark
Then I’ll follow you into the dark
