“You were red and you liked me 'cause I was blue
But you touched me and suddenly I was a lilac sky
And you decided purple just wasn't for youEverything is blue. His pills, his hands, his jeans
And now I'm covered in the colors
Pulled apart at the seams and it's blue”
“I woke up to another mess in the living room
Broken bottles all around my feet
They came again in the night under crescent moon
Didn't wake me in my sleep…
I hide and cower in the corner, conversations getting hard
'Cause nobody seems to ask about me anymore
And nobody seems to care about anything I think
And nobody seems to recognize me in the crowd
In the background, screaming, "Everybody, look at me"
And I'm fading away, you know I used to be on fire
I'm standing in the ashes of who I used to be”
Listen and Get Inspired!
Music and my personal brand of art will always be deeply intertwined. While I create, there is almost always a song or a lyric that inspired the feeling, that in turn inspires my art. This piece was inspired by lyrics and vibes from the songs Colors and Angel on Fire, both by Halsey, seen above.
Check out the song that started it all and support the artist who helped me create mine (by giving their music a listen)!
