So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea

So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The Cape of Storms echoes the pain I feel inside

You'll never notice
The colour of sin
Just as the storm clouds closes in
It's dark

Here in the shadows
I am pursued
Until the ends of the earth
Embraced

The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore

So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea

So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The Cape of Storms echoes the pain I feel inside

You know completely
The taste of sin
Melting sweet in your mouth
Like chocolate

A moment of pleasure
You are fulfilled
But every dream has its time
To die

The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore

Will this be my fate?
So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up, lost in the raging sea

So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The Cape of Storms echoes the pain I feel inside

~HYDE, The Cape of Storms

___________

My tribute to a very good and relatable song, by an incredibly gifted and admirable musician, HYDE: [link]
Found the ref: [link]

This didn't turn out at all like how I originally intended...and the likeness is far from perfect. That aside... I believe it's a successful painting. Maybe my favourite of my works so far, ever...

Bah. I don't know. XD


...My head hurts.

Oil on a 22" x 28" canvas.

((I wish it looked as good in the photo as it does in real life. Even the new camera omits some detail....))

"...echo's the pain I feel insiiiide....."

The beauty of this piece has now re-sparked a very old favorite tune of mine, into my mind.

Adorable!
First I thought 'hmm...reminds my of Hyde...but may be it's just a pure accident' and after reading your comment AND the title...HA! It's really him!
It's been a long time when I was badly in love with this song...
Your oil painting skills are remarkable!
