Lyrics
There are monsters here, there are

And they're wrapped in cotton wool, in wool

And the faces I once knew

They fade, they fade, they fade, they fade

And I walk alone

There are monsters here, there are

And they wait here by my side, my side

And the ones I long to see

They're lost to me, they're lost to me

To them my world falls blind [these last two lines are a total guess]

Get no sanctuary with my eyes closed

Get no sanctuary at all

Get no sanctuary with my eyes closed

Get no sanctuary at all

There are monsters here, there are

And they're wrapped in cotton wool, in wool

And the faces I once knew

They fade, they fade, they fade, they fade

And I walk alone

There are monsters here, there are

And they wait here by my side, my side

And the ones I long to see

They're lost to me, they're lost to me

To them my world falls blind

Sooo amazing. I love the editing, especially all the signs of affection matched with the word monster, and all the relationships, and everything. Perfect.

Thank you! Yeah, the song was pretty much a slam dunk, it almost seemed like it was written for Jack, surrounded by monsters and being groomed to be one too.

This was so gorgeous and tragic and beautiful and sad and perfect perfect perfect.

Ha! I'm sorry! If it makes you feel any better, I shed more than my fair share of tears working on it and having to rewatch the series a million times.

Aw, thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it--I was so lucky with my assignment because I had a lot of feels to work out about Jack.

From:

Yes, so basically, I'm never going to be over my Jack feelings and this vid underscores that. A show lived too short! And you've vidded it beautifully!
