Fade in, start the scene Enter beautiful girl But things are not what they seem As we stand at the edge of the world "Excuse me, sir, But I have plans to die tonight Oh, and you are directly in my way And I bet you're gonna say it's not right" My reply: "Excuse me, miss But do you have the slightest clue Of exactly what you just said to me And exactly who you're talking to?" She said, "I don't care, you don't even know me" I said, "I know but I'd like to change that soon, hopefully" Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion Of self conclusion in one simplified motion You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it No matter how unbearable this misery gets "You make it sound so easy to be alive But tell me, how am I supposed to seize this day When everything inside me has died?" My reply: "Trust me, girl I know your legs are pleading to leap But I offer you this easy choice- Instead of dying, living with me" She said, "Are you crazy? You don't even know me." I said, "I know, but I'd like to change that soon hopefully" Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion Of self conclusion in one simplified motion You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it No matter how unbearable this misery gets I would be lying if I said that things would never get rough And all this cliche motivation, it could never be enough I could stand here all night trying to convince you But what good would that do? My offer stands, and you must choose "All right, you win, but I only give you one night To prove yourself to be better than my attempt at flight I swear to god if you hurt me I will leap I will toss myself from these very cliffs And you'll never see it coming" "Settle, precious, I know what you're going through Just ten minutes before you got here I was gonna jump too" Yeah we all flirt with the tiniest notion Of self conclusion in one simplified motion You see the trick is that you're never supposed act on it No matter how unbearable this misery gets --"Self Conclusion" : The Spill Canvas
I've been listening to this song ALL day, and I've been on the verge of tears the whole time. It's such a beautiful song, and I just love it, so of course I had to do a picture for it. I really like how it came out. I tried to make their coloring represent their position in life right now. The guy is a light color because he's the one who is trying to talk her out of it and just convinced himself not to commit suicide. The girl is darker and shadowed over because she still believes that there's nothing else to do but kill herself. Also, the text faded in the picture are the lyrics to the song; I just felt like adding them in there. Anyway, I might have this be one of my pictures for "100 pic challenge" if I can find a prompt that fits it. So Enjoy, and please comment.
