As My Colors Fade Out...

It will all be over and here we are
We're stuck inside this salted earth together
You pierce my lungs,
My limbs go numb
As my colors fade out,
You watch me bleed...

~ Scary Kids Scaring Kids - "Watch Me Bleed"

There's a lot that I could share here, but I'm under the strong impression that people are tired of hearing it, and I can't bother with making anyone deal with my nonsense anymore. For those who care, I was beginning to show signs of improvement, like things were finally starting to get better, like I was going to pull through and carry on. But, the instant that I start to feel better, it seems like something happens that sends me right back to the starting point...

Anyways, I love this song. It's one of my favorites on my depression-fueled playlist, and I finally decided to draw something while listening to it today. I referenced the pose and the paws from one of my favorite artists, *NatsumeWolf, who has posted before saying that she is alright with others referencing her artwork as long as credit is given. Originally, I wanted to color this in all shades of gray, but I forgot about the idea and ended up coloring it normally. Thus, I added the rainbow-colored wisps to go with the "as my colors fade out" theme instead. I know that it isn't the best, especially with the abnormal-looking head and face, but I'm quite proud of this.
