Description
Ahh, the Matches.
Thanks to *JadedInNowhere , who got me obsessed. x3
Salty Eyes. An amazing song with an amazing music video. If you're wondering about the TVs, yes, the idea comes from the music video.
It's so neat and artistic, I must recommend that you guys watch it.

OH. And I tried a new pose here.
I'm not used to doing sitting positions from a front angle.
So hopefully it looks somewhat decent.
I've been wanting to do a picture for this song for a while now, and because of how I've been lately, it seemed fitting. I cry too much, I really do.

-EMOKIDSHOT'D-
Really though, you probably didn't need to know that.
The Matches= inspiration.
Do you belong to a song?
Does it drag you along by the tongue at the top of your lungs?
Are you drunk?
Have you been drinking?
Do you below the overpass go with a fifth in your fist
reminiscing the kiss of a love that just didn't love as much as you did?
But please don't give up, dear walls.
Don't let the ceiling fall.
When you belong to a song, Salty Eyes.
You belong.
Shrill notes begin the grim violin.
Then from the silence of violence the sirens orchestrate the score.
To which one more corpse is left quiet.
How we've become the hollows of drums.
The rest between notes and the hollers that never reach throats.
"Friends" in quotes, they're not calling.
But please don't give up dear you.
I'm but the sliver moon sliding through
When you belong to a song, salty eyes.
You belong.
Do please believe, however naive.
let it drag you along by the tongue at the top of your lungs.
And belong salty eyes.
When you belong to a song, salty eyes.
You belong.

Aww, I like all the colors--they're so lovely and dim and grunge-y. And her expression is pure win, it looks so gentle in a way, but still kinda bitter. <333
I hasn't cried for quite a while. Odd, since I tend to overreact over tiny things and such. But nothing as of late! Very, very odd.

you make my art look like crap.
ya hear? crap! i could hate you if you weren't so wonderful.
and perhaps if envy and jealousy took over somehow.
but that will never happen. i like you far too much to hate you for your skill.
but this, this is wonderful. and as usual, you picked one of my favorite songs. i'm always so happy to know someone else has such a wonderful and similiar music taste to my own. it's pretty fucking sweet. (does that sound conceited?)
anyway, this is wonderfully illustrated. and as you know, i do hope things get better. you should be happy.

Bleh, didn't put this in there.
How her right foot/leg is tilted a little really adds to the mood of the picture, and how her [Or your...? Not sure how you'd like it said] mouth is open some does too.
