Doctor Who Video: My Skin

Mar 12, 2008 02:21

Title: My Skin
Artist: Natalie Merchant
Character: The Doctor
Betas: 
humansrsuperior  and
leviathan101
Format and Size: wmv; zip, 53MB
Description: A damaged Doctor finds, but also loses, much. Sadly his path continues to be one of 
guilt ridden darkness and loneliness.

Notes: I'm not even sure where to begin with what to say about this vid. It was started back in October. 
The usual RL things delayed it, but it did progress, then at the end of January, my hard drive 
crashed and I lost it, it was about 3/4 finished. I wasn't sure I could resurrect it at all,...but thanks to the very dear humansrsuperior, who had saved some of my rendered clips, I decided to give it a try. I wouldn't have even considered it at all if she hadn't saved them. That, along with leviathan101's encouraging words: "What I might consider doing in your shoes, is to plug in those pieces and edit around it to finish," gave me hope and I began 
trying to sew it back together. I'm happy to finally be able to post this. :)

Take a look at my body
Look at my hands
There's so much here
That I don't understand

Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
I don't need them

I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable

Contempt loves the silence
it thrives in the dark
With fine winding tendrils
That strangle the heart

They say that promises
Sweeten the blow
But I don't need them
No, I don't need them

I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable

I'm a slow dying flower
Frost killing hour
The sweet turning sour
And untouchable

Oh, I need
The darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
I need this

I need
A lullaby
A kiss goodnight
Angel sweet
Love of my life
Oh, I need this

Do you remember the way
That you touched me before
All the trembling sweetness
I loved and adored?

Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
No, I don't need them

Oh, I need
The darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
I need this

I need
A lullaby
A kiss goodnight
The angel sweet
Love of my life
I need this

Is it dark enough?
Can you see me?
Do you want me?
Can you reach me?
Oh I'm leaving

You better shut your mouth
Hold your breath
Kiss me now you'll catch my death
Oh, I mean this
