Butterflies always come back, and your garden is me.
FINALLY was able to finish this painting I've started around the middle of the year, or even earlier. Its a fanart of @paodocinh's little nightmares AU Can't You See Me? on AO3 and its just SO COOL seriously. You won't regret reading. Anyways, it constantly made me have ideas and I was finally able to put it on the canvas.
based on awfully painful and even more amazing fic by @oh-snapperss <3

‘Can’t You See Me?’ Lyric Analysis (The Day The World Burned, We...)
Ahh, my namesake (and my first title track with TXT)! Perhaps I should have started with this one...
Released with The Dream Chapter: ETERNITY, May 2020.
The song marked a distinct shift in TXT’s style and concept, from youthful and magical to dark and vengeful. Fire was a particular motif, in the MVs, choreography, and lyrics. This was a complete plot twist, and was both completely unexpected, and absolutely what we would expect from TXT. It perfectly rounded out the Dream Chapter trilogy, and showed the beginnings of the consequences of the boys’ mistakes in the previous two albums. Along with Minisode, it bridged into the dreaded Chaos Chapter.
The Korean name of the song, which translates to, ‘The Day the World Burned, We...’ is very unique and interesting. It ends on a cliffhanger with the elipsis, and has an aspect of uncertainty - we never know - do we fill in the gaps ourselves, or do they just not tell us what they did? The matter-of-fact nature of the name makes it very creepy, like they just stood by and watched everything burn (think of that meme of the grinning girl in front of the burning house). Let’s just say, it’s considerably more creepy than the English title.
The song itself describes the falling out between the group, and the consequences of their anger and pain. It is very sinister and Gothic. There are a few interesting line distributions, and some interesting transation differences.
For instance, the line ‘friends don’t understand me any more,’ is sung by each of the members individually, except for Beomgyu, who only sings it with others. Was this a stylistic choice, or does it have meaning? Does Beomgyu not voice his concerns because he doesn’t want Taehyun to notice that he is the sketchy one? He did murder Taehyun in the MV, so maybe he’s just trying to cover his trail?
The teasers that came with the MV were ridiculously confusing, and I still don’t really know what was going on. But everyone is suspicious in some ways - why did Soobin lie? Why did Beomgyu murder Taehyun? Why did Yeonjun cause so much destruction? What happened to Kai? And why is Taehyun investigating and staring into our souls constantly?
No one is in the right.
The choreography is also key in telling the story of ‘Can’t You See Me?’ It, along with the MV, styling, teasers, and especially the lyrics, shows both chaos and insanity, and many symbols of a broken friendship and youth (think the ‘crumbled sandcastle’ and the pinky promise).
In my storyline playlist, the track is after ‘Blue Hour’ and before ‘Magic. Why did I put it there? I don’t really remember. Perhaps because the end of the ‘Blue Hour’ MV shows Beomgyu stepping on the book/grimoire, a symbol of their friendship and power, and because ‘Eternally’ comes after ‘CYSM,’ and ‘Magic’ comes before ‘Eternally’.
Yup, I think that was it.
