well this piece before you was inspired by atlantis and my favorite breadfish song ludvig & sverker...

ludvig & sverker lyrics:

Cry, I'll hold you as we fall.
Feels like we've done this once before.
Come now, let’s cry ourselves to sleep, a dreamless sleep, sheltered in the deep.

This helplessness, I can feel it too, like there is nothing we can do.
So cry, for a moment it will make it better.

I no longer know myself, I'm just a memory of somebody else.
I can feel my soul detach, I'm just a memory, even to myself.
They will never know how we long to take them in our arms, to hold them and to love them as only a mother and father can.

It’s tearing me apart, this sorrow is the void and it’s eating me from inside.
Do you remember what we said?
It’s still playing in my head, over and over again.

Sleep tight, my little ones.
I will love you forever.
Sleep in the woods, my little ones.
I will miss you always.

Sleep tight, my little ones.
I will love you forever.
Sleep in the woods, my little ones.
I will miss you always.

Sleep tight, my little ones.
I will love you forever.
Sleep in the woods, my little ones.
I will miss you always.

Sleep tight, my little ones.
I will love you forever.
Sleep in the woods, my little ones.
I will miss you always.

Sleep in the woods.

story: this ancient civilization was kept beneath a deep ocean. the only way for the people to survive was to use the blue-eyed people: people who are able to control the water. but the downfall of their destiny was the cost of their freedom. they'll have to keep the barrier up for the rest of their lives. one of the blue-eyed people became weak due to his age and had to be replaced. a young girl was chosen for the job, yet this worried her parents. all throughout her life she was taught that keeping the barrier up was a noble and honorable deed to the city. but her parents knew it would have to cost her freedom. finally her time had come to put up the barrier. she was thrilled at first, but over time she began to lose herself in order to keep the barrier up. all of her attention had to be towards the water or it would collapse. months went by and her parents would talk to her and deliver gifts. but she could not respond. her father began to have trouble sleeping, worried for his daughter's sanity. eventually he told her every day that she didn't have to hold the barrier, she can be free if she wanted to. the other blue-eyes heard his plea and started to second thoughts. one day the guards caught him and throw him in prison for treason. the blue-eyes witness this and stopped controlling the water. the city began to drowned. the girl, relieved to stop, was the last to put down the barrier.
