Lyrics:
Carnivorous hearts
Ever condemned to supporting parts
Signs, stuck from the start with their
Stars crossed but never lost their way!
Carnivorous hearts
Ever condemned to supporting parts
Signs, stuck from the start with their
Stars crossed but never lost their way!
And can't you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together? / I can't believe that this could happen
It's written there in soot and ash and blood and that's furever / Thin lines on gray skin, thin lines on gray skin / Your word will carry on, they let me free
And so if I've been too discrete, let me repeat, remember / Where the world ends, that's where we begin / But I can't breathe
That I'm still on your side, and that's furever, furever, furever / Thin lines, thin lines on gray skin
Carnivorous hearts
Ever condemned to supporting parts
Signs, stuck from the start with their
Stars crossed but never lost their way!
Artist commentary:
When I made this art, I genuinely had a very insane obsession with Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
Looking back at it now, it's not my best work, but it's genuinely a big step for me to get my art in something for once. I only recently had gotten into Homestuck, but it's definately influenced me somewhat.
Inspired by Dalek's vision, I took some inspiration from ~Sono Chi no Sadame~, and tried to write something that felt grand and tied together the stories of all three olivebloods! I haven't watched Jojo, but it seems like it's about people being related to each other and having superpowers, and fate. That's enough of a common thread with the dancestor situation for me! It was also a chance to revisit some melodies I really like: My old tune Oolongcat and a few fansongs. The guitar part for the verse was played by my partner on a weird beast we got from Goodwill. It seems to be a full size guitar neck stuck onto a kids' electric guitar body, with a built in speaker. Slight changes in pressure when fingering starts to make the notes bend noticeably. It's also Shrek green!
