[Animation / Original Song] BATIM - Just a Pen and a Nightmare [FishyMom (ft. Rinko)]

This, my fellows, is a gift for an amazing and hugely inspiring person who is Halfusek. If not for you, my friend, I think I wouldn’t be so active in the batim fandom and honestly? I own you a thank you.
Now, this is a project that Rinko (!!!!!) organized. They asked if I wanted to work with them and we both agreed that it would be a nice idea to make a remix of the song Just A Pen And A Nightmare. Liked this song before? Here, let me slap you a better version in the face, featuring the wonderful vocals by Rinko themselves.
I had a huge honor to work among several amazing artists and I think they made an amazing work and I am very grateful they did all of it.
I really hope you will enjoy the animation (also provided by Rinko) as much as I enjoyed this experience of working with them and other artists. I wish you all the best things a person could ever wish. You are incredible and we would love to see all the amazing things you will do in the future. Stay cool~
Happy Birthday, Halfusek!!!
Rinko edit: Everyone worked soooo hard on this, I hope you'll like it Halfie uwu !

Lyrics:

Some wish they could cry
When all the tears dried out
Some wish they could fly
When tear their wings they shout

Some shake from the anger
That they are left out
It hurts like a dagger
But you are too proud
To admit

Bridge:
You are hurt, you are crooked
And Your words hurt like a bullet
And you lied like you have all under control
And this voice pulls my hair
It’s a dreadful affair
With insanity, pain, who are we now?

Chorus:
Just a pen and a nightmare
Just a drawing and a man
Just a devil and his demons
Wandering those lands
I don’t know what’s more pathetic
Me or you, or every inch of my existence
I didn’t notice when it got different
From a pencil and a dream

From a pencil and a dream

[Instrumental]

Love requires sacrifice
And I know I promised such
No more angels, no more lies
Don’t you think it's a bit too much?

I don’t care how much I lost
Far more important what I gained
All those people are the cost
For the cure of my own pain
And you see

Bridge:
I am hurt, just a monster
Cause she knows that I don’t want her
Cause they all turned to some stones under my feet
We’re alike, and it’s ironic
How we’re both somewhat demonic
And we both are bound to fall apart when touched

Chorus:
Just a pen and a nightmare
Just a drawing and a man
Just a devil and his demons
Wandering those lands
I don’t know what’s more pathetic
Me or you, or every inch of my existence
I didn’t know when it became such a bad dream

Just a pen and a nightmare
Just a drawing and a man
Just a devil and his demons
Wandering those lands
I don’t know what’s more pathetic
Me or you, or every inch of my existence
I didn’t notice when it got different
From a pencil and a dream

--------------
Hope you'll enjoy!
Rinko Edit: YOU BETTER ENJOY YES

Fishy, I’m so happy to know that I’ve been a positive influence on you and I’m very glad we’ve became friends, it’s been a blast. Even though it’s been a few months since you wrote this song, I still cherish it a lot and this remix of it hits me in the feels just as it did before. It won’t stop to blow my mind that someone would write and create such an amazing song for my stuff, and now seeing an entire animation for it just completely beats me to the ground, I am absolutely in love with this and I love you <3 And your artwork has been as stellar as always, and I especially love the moments with “I know I promised such” with Henry and Susie and thatAlice’s hand on the glad and him being like ?? like… yeah that is so cool and also flows super great and just OGHGH “IT’S A BIT TOO MUCH” IS SO SO MUCH MORE INTENSE THAN IN THE ORIGINAL SONG AND I LOVE IT, THE ART SELLS IT THE EDITING SELLS IT THE VOICE SELLS IT AND THE MUSIC SELLS IT, I HAVE BEEN BOUGHT
