*drum roll* Round one:
You will use the lyrics below, interpret them in your unique and creative way, and create a photomanipulation however way you want. For this round, you are free to use any images you wish. Be sure to avoid any copyrighted images and ask for permission if there are restrictions on the photo. Suggested sites are sxc.hu, stockart.deviantart.

If I could open my arms
And span the length of the isle of Manhattan,
I'd bring it to where you are
Making a lake of the East River and Hudson
If I could open my mouth
Wide enough for a marching band to march out
They would make your name sing
And bend through alleys and bounce off all the buildings.

I wish we could open our eyes
To see in all directions at the same time
Oh what a beautiful view
If you were never aware of what was around you
And it is true what you said
That I live like a hermit in my own head
But when the sun shines again
I'll pull the curtains and blinds to let the light in.

Props to whoever can guess where they're from. Kristina suggested these lyrics. :)

The deadline is on December 9th, which is in 2 weeks. It's a while but I don't make manipulations so I don't know how long they generally take. If it's too long or too short, or if you need more time, let me know and I'll adjust the deadline accordingly. If all are submitted early though, we can start the voting round early. Please PM your submissions to me (mona lisa) or Holly (Infinite.); do not post them in this thread.
