Description
"Calling you to wakeShouting in my car that's stalled outside
And it's pure coincidence I'm sure
Falling from my mouth, secondary doubts I've found myself in
Can't seem to look you in the eye
And I hope you can see
I'm more than this, this heap at your feet
Who are you to judge me?
Who are you to preach?
Control has slipped away from me again
How heavy are these words?
They're heavier than air
That rushes past your face as you drive away from me again
How heavy are these hands?
They're heavier than blood
That rushes to my head as you walk away from me again
Forcing you to speak
Snapping out my voice seems smaller now, it's only whispering my life
Paper cuts in time
I insist you keep these letters here and read them over if you can
And I hope you can see
I'm more than this, this heap at your feet
Who are you to judge me?
Who are you to preach?
Control has slipped away from me again
How heavy are these words?
They're heavier than air
That rushes past your face as you drive away from me again
How heavy are my hands?
They're heavier than blood
That rushes to my head as I will walk away from here again
How heavy are these words?
They're heavier than air
That rushes to my face as you turn away from me again
How heavy are these words, heavier than time
That rushes past your face as you would turn to walk away again"

It's not often that I get to see such a bright manipulation these days on deviantart, so it's a real treat to see this one!
Good focus on the model with the desaturated background. Lighting is close to perfect, but not quite there yet. There's a bit of bright sky on the left side, but the column was originally placed in a different light setting. If you use a bit of dodge on the edge that faces the left side, it would feel more natural.
The reflection on the ice is a bit off too, I can only notice one of her legs there.
I've checked out the gallery and this is one of your best and one you should be very proud of.
And that's my critique for you as requested e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/sā¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="
