download: 30mb xvid avi


Drink up, baby
Stay up all night
The things you could do
You won't, but you might
The potential you'll be
That you'll never see
The promises you'll only make

Drink up with me now
And forget all about
The pressure of days
Do what I say
And I'll make you okay,
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head

The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
Or that push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

Drink up, baby
Look at the stars
I'll kiss you again
Between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there
With your hands in the air
You're waiting to finally be caught

Drink up one more time
And I'll make you mine
I'll keep you apart
Deep in my heart
Separate from the rest
Where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot

The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
Or that push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

I'll keep them still
Oh-oh

Oh, that is gorgeous! I love how you use the external source. (But is it really external? Such a complicated fanon!) It's amazing how you changed the tone of the series, making this lovely little cracky show into something unsettling and a bit sinister.

And that sequence of Merlin waking up near the end is awesome. Awesome.

It's not so much external source. More like internal... or lateral... or something.

After watching vids and watching the series, I'm still amazed at how vidders were able to take the series and make something so serious out of it.

Merlin wakes up a lot in the series. I used a clip from each time. And they cheated once by taking a clip from the pilot and making it blue.
