RULES:

(1) Pick a song, copy and paste the lyrics and post them. The next people have to incorporate the lyrics into a 'high fantasy' setting. Picking at random is encouraged.

(2) We stick with the current theme, regardless.

(3) We can 'Yes, but' the scenario meaning that if someone says 'the players are fighting aliens' we can say 'yes, but those aliens were here first and the player's civilization are the true aliens but don't know it'.

(4) Post the artists , album, and name of the song after the lyrics so proper dues can be paid.

(5) Once we get to 20 we should have a full setting

(6) Have fun

To get us started:



Listen while you read!
Don't want to fight, every single night
Everything I want is in your lies
You and me go back, to places I don't know to care
The spoils of all I got were left as scraps
Don't let me say this, but you're no worse than me, too crazy

The unreal, real never was, just because
The ugly, feel we've had enough
The unbelief, someone gave us up

I wanna be there when you're happy
I wanna love you when you're sad
Can't stand the morning rain
Get out I'll take your place then
Can't stand the blazing sun
Close your eyes you'll see, the angel dies

I don't wanna be, anything believes
A million watts of sound can't compare
Come along you'll see the world
Impulse removes, the crowd unclosed, the chorus starts to flow and then you're home
Oh is the White House all they want?
I'll sing for...

The unreal, real never was, just because
The ugly, every living soul
The oh so real, someone gave us up

Don't break the oath
I wanna love you when you're happy
Don't break the soul
I wanna be there when you're sad
Withstand the pouring rain

The unreal, as real as any loss, too easy now
The unreal in every living soul
Dumb day now

Can't stand the blazing sun
Can't stand the morning rain
Ah get out I'll take your place ... again
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna be alone
I dont wanna be alone - no

If its the White House all they want,
Black house they'll get

This thread might have better luck in the Silly Message Boards Forum (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=34). But I'll bite...

Let's see...

A city of intrigue and corruption. A plague or curse is terrorizing the city that slowly converts people's outer countenance to reflect the truth of their soul. The impoverished corrupt mutate into hideous and pitiable monsters that hide themselves in the dark recesses of the city, While the wealthy corrupt mingle with the righteous and other wealthy, disguised with powerful glamours. As time goes on, the residents of this city learn that the ultimate recourse of the curse is death. As the righteous shine brighter, they eventually burn out in an explosion of golden light. As the wicked wilt, they crumble into filth and ash. The rate at which this happens depends on the morality, or immorality, of the soul within. For some, it takes weeks. For others, it takes months. But eventually, once affected, the only known end is death.

Ok. Here's mine:

Steve walks warily down the street,
with the brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet,
machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, Are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat

Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust

How do you think I'm going to get along,
without you, when you're gone
You took me for everything that I had,
and kicked me out on my own

Are you happy, are you satisfied
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat

Mages possessing powers of drought, dehydration and dust rule a technologically advanced realm. The former ruler of the country will soon return in a vengeful crusade.


As a young boy chasing Dragons
with your wooden sword so mighty,
You're St. George or you're David and you always
killed the beast
Times change very quickly
And you had to grow up early
A house in smoking ruins and the bodies at your feet

[Chorus:]
You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade
In a corner forgotten by no-one
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his Honour.

The smell of resined leather
The steely iron mask
As you cut and thrust and parried at the
fencing master's call
He taught you all he ever knew
To fear no mortal man
And now you'll wreak your vengeance in the
Screams of evil man.

[Chorus:]
[Repeat chorus]
