Description

*Sorry for the double post; I had to reupload as a visual file for the formatting to work... :shakefist:


'God, how self indulgent, I thought, but whom should I indulge if not myself? ... [They are] battle scars. "I have a heart to break" is all it means. "I am killable". ... It was never supposed to be a way of life: it was about survival.'
– Emilie Autumn, The Asylum

Sorry if this makes you feel uncomfortable – god, I know full well how it can make people feel. But it's something I felt had to be said.

Title is from this song of the same name by Rasputina. I feel it fits.

I keep reading the same apology in your artist's comments, and just wanted to say, sometimes it's important to make the world uncomfortable. if people keep flinching and turning away from things, we as a whole are never going to take the necessary societal steps to correct them. staring something in the face is the first step to reaching out to it.

the title here is glorious, as is the piece. the fact that you avoid the all-too-common melodrama and glorification surrounding this subject makes me so glad.
