Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

"If I die before you wake

Don't you cry, don't you ache

Nothing's ever yours to keep

Close your eyes, go to sleep"
Lullaby, Tom Waits

"Twinkle twinkle little... star...

How I wonder what... you... are...

Up above the world so... high...

Like a diamond in the... sky...

When the blazing sun is... gone...

When the nothing shines upon...

Then you show your little light

Twinkle twinkle all the... night

Then the trav'ler in the dark

Thanks you for your little spark

He could not see which way to... go...

If you did not... twinkle... so...

When the blazing sun is... gone...

When the nothing shines upon...

Though I know not what you... are...

Twinkle, twinkle little... star..."
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, full version, Dead Space. The cadence has been reproduced as faithfully as it can get without sound.

"My mother has killed me...

my father is eating me...

my brothers and sisters, sit under the table,

picking up my bones!

They'll bury them,

under the cold marble stones..."

“If you would seek the true terror in the night, throw away your library of thrillers and gothic romances and turn back to your childhood. There is no darkness quite so potent as that behind the apparently innocent nursery rhyme.”

 Zagreus sits inside your head

Zagreus lives among the dead

Zagreus sees you in your bed

And eats you when you're sleeping

Cquote1

 Zagreus at the end of days

Zagreus sets the skies ablaze

Zagreus comes when time's a maze

And all of history's weeping

Cquote2


Cquote1

 Zagreus taking time apart.

Zagreus fears the hero heart.

Zagreus seeks the final part.

The reward that he is reaping.

Cquote2


Cquote1

 Zagreus sings when all is lost

Zagreus takes all those he's crossed

Zagreus wins and all is cost

The hero's hearts he's keeping.

Cquote2


Cquote1

Zagreus seeks the hero's ship

Zagreus needs the web to rip

Zagreus sups time at a drip

And life aside, he's sweeping.

Born in lust

Turn to dust

Born in sin

Come on in

Born in vice

Say it twice

At least twice

Mary had a little lamb,

Little lamb, little lamb,

Mary had a little lamb,

Whose fleece was white as snow.

 The naughty little woodpecker

Knocked holes, crumbling the forest.

The angry wood god turned his beak into poison!

 The poor little woodpecker

His nest was poison

And his supper too.

He touched his friends and they all died.

The sad little woodpecker

His little poison tears twinkle and shine.

Tick tock goes the clock

And what now shall we play?

Tick tock goes the clock

Now summer’s gone away?



Tick tock goes the clock

And what then shall we see?

Tick tock until the day

That thou shalt marry me



Tick tock goes the clock

And all the years they fly

Tick tock and all too soon

You and I must die



Tick tock goes the clock

We laughed at fate and mourned her

Tick tock goes the clock

Even for the Doctor



Tick tock goes the clock

And all the years they fly

Tick tock goes the clock

Your love will surely die



Tick tock goes the clock

He cradled her and he rocked her

Tick tock goes the clock

Til River kills the Doctor



Tick tock goes the clock

He gave all he could give her

Tick tock goes the clock

Now prison waits for River
—The compiled Tick Tock Goes the Clock, Doctor Who: Series 6
