Description
"Who's there knocking at my window?The owl and the Dead Boy
This night whispers my name
All the dying children
Virgin snow beneath my feet
Painting the world in white
I tread the way and lose myself into a tale
Come hell or high water
My search will go on
Clayborn Voyage without an end
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby"
Nightwish - The Escapist
I absolutely love this song and I simply had to do this piece. It's nothing too complicated but I enjoyed a lot working with it. I couldn't find all the stock I was loking for, so I practically painted the kid by using some references for the body. It was quite fun and I'm pretty pleased with the way he came out - hope you like it as much as I do.

I'm doing an english project on this song and was doing some research. I'm trying to find the meaning of the lyrics. I saw a google result for this and was curious. I am very glad I took the time to view this. Great work. Love it.

Really really really great work!!! The boy remembers me at the Cover of Nightwish's Wishmaster. And it also could be the picture of one of their songs, like Dead Boy's Poem.
