I made this picture based (again) on the song from k's choice - butterflies instead.
When I first heard the song at a friends place it didn't inpress me, but when I heard it at home and was looking at the lyrics it made a deep impression on me. It's about a girl with her parents who are constantly fighting and when she's so sad, she tries to forget everything around her and she dreams of pretty things (al least..that's what I think)
maby you would think why it would impress me. Well my parents has split up some years ago... well I'm over it now, but when I hear this song I identify myself with the girl in the song... the singer also sings about "pets who come alive" well I used to play with stuffed animails..maby it sounds weird but the song shows explains how I sometimes felt in those days back...
lyrics (yes lyrics (again) but I acctually wanted to put the song in the picture but when I tried with flash it didn't work
:( )
I lock the door and lock my head
And dream of butterflies instead
The beauty of their colored wings
The trees, the grass and pretty things
Imagination fills the void of my existence
Daddy says "I love you girl, it's not your fault
Your mom and me don't get along"
I know he's lying, I know there's no such thing as
Inexplicable I hear, forget, this world in bed
And suddenly the sun comes up
That's when my pets all come alive
They cheer me up and tell me
Everything's alright
Stuffed animals are always right
My favorite song, my favorite show
I wonder if they even know
Or if they care or if they even notice
I am standing there
I want my pets to come alive
And cheer me up and tell me
Everything's alright
Stuffed animals are always right
Everything's alright
Stuffed animals are always right
Alright...
My eyes all red, the baby's wet
And someone has to get that phone
I want my pets to come alive and
Cheer me up and tell me
Alright...
I lock the door and lock my head
And dream of butterflies instead
just a simple picture, hope you like it
(yes, thats a young mina, don't know why I put her in it, it doesn't make any sence but I couldn't think of anyone else

This is quite sad. It happened to me too... It's tough. I used my art to get through it. I guess the pictures were my way of escaping it
