Description

Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
---"Take Me to Church" by Hozier


I tried to illustrate how I felt back when I couldn't say 'no' to my family, when I tried my best to fulfil their wish no matter how painful and hollow it made me feel; it was like dying on the inside.

Title's taken from the lyrics of "Take Me To Church" by Hozier.

May I ask who that is?

He's the singer (and possibly the song writer, too) of the song whose lyrics I took for this piece's title.

It's... so powerful. I understand your feeling: living on the expectations of the others and always thinking we are not good enough to fulfill them or struggling to do so, against our own wishes.
This painting is screaming in silent pain. I really hope that you managed to overcome this, by now

'No Masters or Kings
When the Ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean'
