Never ending dream (Tearing Saga OST) - by Liz Constantine - A really sad song ;A;

Inside your pain and sorrow never ending dream
Still lives close to your wounded heart
Don't fall apart let me hold you in
My arms so you can rest your soul

Drifting through the winds of time
Feeling warmth of sweet memories
You'll realize you're not all alone always
I'll be right here by your side

Don't be afraid, open the door to your heart you'll find
All the dreams that you believe it's waiting for you
Shining bright together we'll make it true

Feeling your love, there's nothing to fear when you are near
Through every season love grows you're part of my life
Live with you this precious moment forever

I'm thinking of you always feeling you inside
I hear only your gentle voice
Your words of love when I close my eyes
My heart can still feel your warm embrace

I'm not afraid, every piece of my broken heart
Shining bright, showing the way, I can see a new day
And with you, gonna find my tomorrows dream

Feeling your love, bringing so much joy into my life
Through every season love grows you make me feel alive
Share with you this precious moment forever

Lyrical

I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
'Til all my sleeves are stained red

From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw me wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve

And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Singing straight, too cold
I don't really like my flow, no, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

Oh, got no reason, got no shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'ma tell you everything

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
All my secrets away, all my secrets away

Thank you so much everyone for submiting this week. We have 5 amazing icons by 4 particpants! It's only the minimum icons for me to put up a standard voting, so please be more active next time, guys ;A;

To vote leave a comment to this post with the numbers of your 'first, second' choice icons that you feel are best overall.

Due to the limited number of icons, we only have 2 places this week.
First: 45
Second: 72

Or like this:

45, 72

Voting Rules

'Do's'
- You must be a member to vote, one ballot per member (excludes multiple accounts)
- You must vote for a total of three icons (no more, no less) or your vote will be discarded
- Vote for the best/most appropriate icons overall, not your favourite series/character/etc.

'Do Not's'
- Do not vote for your own icon or feel obligated to vote for your friend's icon
- Don't vote for an icon more than once... I'm not sure why you would, but just in case
- Do not reveal your entry until voting is closed or pressure people to vote for you
- Do not create multiple fake accounts to cheat, I check IP adresses and account status

Voting will close Sunday, December 11th at 10:00 PM GMT +1 [Current time] and no late votes will be accepted afterwards unless an official extension is announced, so please vote by then. A public comment will be appended to the voting post as close to the deadline as possible to signify this. Once voting is closed, you are free to publically display/distribute your entry as it will have no impact on the results. Winners will be announced sometime after depending on my schedule.

Reminder: week 02

It's Saturday already and we still only have 2 gorgeous but lonely entries. So I will extend this challenge one more week. The new deadline will be Friday, December 10th at 10:00PM GMT +1 [current time]. After that I'll put up the voting post regardless the number of icons we have.

I know this time of the year most of you guys are very busy and all. I panicked but don't worry, I'll continue to run the community~

If you have placed (1st, 2nd, 3rd or MC) this week, please leave a comment here stating whether or not you would like a banner (plus provide any image links, font names and/or other resources used, if you can) and I will make you one if requested. You may also specify a certain type/style of banner, if you have a preference. Otherwise, you may still go to cb_overflow or custom_banners instead.

If you've placed at 1st, don't forget to go here to claim a silver prize (if you want).

I'm still counting points for voter of the month, submiter of the month and champion also, so don't worry, guys.

Week 02 submission has already been posted, there are 3 themes to choose from. More information are available at the submission post. Remember your icon(s) is/are due by Friday, December 2nd at 10:00 PM GMT +1 [current time]. We currently have 0 entries, I'm excited to see what you guys will come up with!
