I would love to participate, but only if someone can tell me how to not sound like this in every register
"I raised the baby, I changed the baby's diapers.  Whenever the baby had projectile diarrhea, I was there in the line of fire.  I even got a little in my mouth!  I sacrificed so much for my baby.  Now my baby hates me and thinks Mike Mangini is its real father!"

I'm gonna give this a one day bump to see if we can get any more entries as I feel that 3 isn't THAT diverse but if we don't get any more entries I shall pick the winner and we'll move on  :metal

Awesome! Thanks! Gonna go back to The Astonishing for this next one, but only cause I really wanna hear these lines!

You dare to stand
Before my eyes
You're one of them
Why would I trust you?

It's not like that
I can't go back
Hope fades away
With each passing second

I have currently completely lost my voice, so I'll have to wait a few days for this. Looking forward to doing it :D

Alright, back in the game! I had much better takes of Arhys but I'm really struggling with Faythe so I picked the one I liked the most for her part. I'm enjoying it so much :P

You know how I mentioned that I lost my voice? I recorded the first half during that, and the second half today :D

Okay, another Astonishing selection:

I knew the day had come
And you could be tempted
To give up the chosen one
And finally end this
Do anything for your son
A terminal weakness
Now you're as good as done

I didn't have a choice
And I was defenseless
I didn't believe his voice
The fighting was senseless
But now I can see the truth
I've got to my senses
I shouldn't have trusted you


In case you don't recognize this, it's the "rap" section from The Path That Divides. I'm looking particularly for correct rhythm and diction.

Despite cheating I managed to fail at both of these.

Well, there are still only 2 entries, or maybe 3. I wasn't sure whether CharlesPL was attempting my line, but my guess is he wasn't.

Anyway, the winner is Ad134.

Pick the next line!

If no one else enters in the next few days, I'll give you the win.. Would rather not have to award it by default, but sometimes it happens!

The next line is...

I feel so strange

All the answers to my dreams

When I sleep at night
I hear the cries
What does this mean?"
