<b>Please scroll down for results of round 22.</b>
___________________________________________________________
THE BASICS ::

[01] Each round will have a song as a theme.
[02] You must use that song and you must relate that song to the blend that you make.
[03] Each round is the same type of graphic --- blends, let's get better at making those! :)
[04] a. In your graphic, you must have the lyrics of the song, the name of the song, and the artist.
------ b. You do not have to use the entire lyrics, you must have a minimum of TWO verses, however.
[05] The images you use in your blend is at your discretion but no pictures can imply anything against the forum rules.

+++++++++++++++
<center>Song Themed Contest - Round 23
Song :: "Stop and Stare" by OneRepublic
Graphic :: Blend</center>

Stop and Stare wrote:
This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shaking off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see

They're trying to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
Something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, you don't need

What you need, what you need...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do you see what I see...



Rules:
------Have fun. Find your inner music muse.
------Please post the LINK of your entry and DO NOT use the img tools.
------Initial blend must be 600 x 400 pixels.
------Anyone is allowed to enter --- please do not ask for permission.

First? :swoon: Gorgeous awards, FF!

I love this song and I'm hoping I can throw something together, but I'm super busy lately, so I really don't know if I'll have time.
