Vault Short Story Contest I: Remember
Hello, fellow BZPers.
You may have noticed that I've decided to go ahead with a Short Story Contest. So, here's the lowdown:
You have until February 4th to create for me a Short Story. Length, I don't care. I care about quality.
Now, with any SS Contest, there will be a theme. This contest's theme will be the lyrics to Disturbed's song Remember. You may choose to incorporate the lyrics, or simply build a story based upon said lyrics (granted, you include an explanation of how the story fits the song with your story).
Stories will be judged by myself based upon originality, ties to theme, and grammar. Yeah, I'm simple.
As well, I'd suggest listening to the song as well. It's simply beautiful.
Now, to run over the info one more time:
Final Entry Date: February 4th
Length: Your choosing.
Theme: 'Remember' by Disturbed
As I final note before I give you your lyrics, winners will be announced February 7th.
Lyrics:
Sensation washes over me
I can't describe it
Pain I felt so long ago
I don't remember
Tear a hole so I can see
My devastation
Feelings from so long ago
I don't remember
Holding on, to let them know
What's given to me, given to me
To hide behind
The mask this time
And try to believe
Blind your eyes to what you see
You can't embrace it
Leave it well enough alone
And don't remember
Cut your pride and watch it bleed
You can't deny it
Pain you know you can't ignore
I don't remember
Holding on, to let them know
What's given to me, given to me
To hide behind
The mask this time
And try to believe
If I can
Remember
To know this will
Conquer me
If I can
Just walk alone
And try to escape
Into me
Sensation washes over me
I can't describe it
Pain I felt so long ago
I don't remember
I'm just holding on, to let them know
What's given to me, given to me
To hide behind
The mask this time
And try to believe
If I can
Remember
To know this will
Conquer me
If I can
Just walk alone
And try to escape
Into me
into me
into me
