children, your time is done

White Lotus Lunar New Year Exchange reveals are up! If you haven't already, there's a ton of awesome Avatar: the Last Airbender fanworks up there. <3

And I made a vid. musesfool requested the song specifically -- which meant I HAD to do it, seeing as it was 1. Vienna Teng (we're all aware of my love of vidding to Vienna Teng, right?), and 2. I had already started a vid to this very song. Not for this fandom, though -- it was going to be a River Tam vid -- but I've got to say, the lyrics were too eerily appropriate for A:tLA to pass up.

LYRICS:

While you were building your empires
I was still sleeping
I was still sleeping
While you were setting your woods afire
I was still dreaming
I was still dreaming

Now I will unsettle the ground beneath you
Send my waters ashore
Creep into your bed
Find you in every corner

While you argue it over
I am not waiting
I am not waiting
While you retreat to your comforts
I am not fading
I am not fading

I've done this many times before you
Old Shanghai
New Orleans
Amsterdam and Mumbai
Strange new creatures
To scavenge your pores
Oh I've done this many times before you
Ashen sky
Lightning storms
Deltas to desert plains
Wartime on every border

I've done this many times before you
Watched the pattern take form
Children your time is done
If you say it's done together
