.:EDIT:. I didn't make this for Putri's contest, it's just consequently a piece that I finished around that time, and I managed to win. Thank you for all the congratulations but please don't assume I made it for that <33

Dead! by My Chemical Romance

Yeah!

And if your heart stops beating
I'll be here wondering
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life
And if you get to heaven
I'll be here waiting, babe
Did you get what you deserve?
The end, and if your life won't wait
Then your heart can't take this

Have you heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say
I think they never liked you anyway
Oh take me from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand? It ain't exactly what you planned.
And wouldn't it be great If we were dead?
Ohh dead.

Tongue-tied and oh so squeamish
You never fell in love
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life
And if you* get to heaven
I'll be here waiting, babe
Did you get what you deserve?
The end, and if your life won't wait
Then your heart can't take this

Have you heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say
I think they never liked you anyway
Oh take me from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand to take a pistol by the hand?
And wouldn't it be great if we were dead?

And in my honest observation
During this operation
Found a complication in your heart
So long, 'Cause now you've got (now you've got)
Maybe just two weeks to live
Is that the most the both of you can give?

One, two, one two three four!

LA LA LA LA LA!
LA LA LA LA LA LA!
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!
Well come on,
LA LA LA LA LA!
LA LA LA LA LA LA!
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!
Oh motherfucker,

If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA!)
Then why are we laughing? (LA LA LA LA LA LA!)
If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!)
Then why are we laughing?
If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA!)
Then why are we laughing? (LA LA LA LA LA LA!)
If life ain't just a joke (LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!)
Then why am I dead?
DEAD!

So over a year ago (February 15th 2007) I started this picture. And now it is finally done and I never have to look at the 200mb PSD file ever again.

This is my homage to the song 'Dead!' By My Chemical Romance off of their Black Parade album.

On the left is Fear and Regret with the patient. They have no legs, I know, they're not really there, it's all in his mind. The patient is dead... duh. Death is skulking, the doctor is a demon. The band plays in the window and Mother War supervises.

Oh and ghosties, can't forget the ghosties.

More than 200 layers, more than 80 hours of work on this piece. I know the doctor looks really... off, but there's nothing to be done now. I won't go back and change any of it. I'm just calling it finished. My style has changed so much since this started, it's almost sad to look at it, and I got a tablet halfway through so the color in some places is greatly improved from older parts of it.

My Chemical Romance, how I worship you x_x;
