Description: This is a layout I did to explain a particular song I have been listening to a lot lately. The song is called Forsaken and it's by VNV Nation. I used a lot of layers in this one. There is a BG paper, an overlay, and all the lyrics to the song on top of that.
This is really more of a self portrait than a layout. There is just so much stuff in my head and my heart right now and this really encompasses all of that. I used a lot of transparency and negative effects on this.
Forsaken by VNV Nation
When I have nothing left to feel.
When I have nothing left to say
I'll just let this slip away.
I feel these engines power down.
I feel this heart begin to bleed
as I turn this burning page.
Please forgive me if I bleed.
Please forgive me if I breathe.
I have words I need to say.
Oh so very much to say.
And whose life do I lead?
And whose blood do I bleed?
Whose air do I breathe?
With whose skin now do I feel?
I'm supposed to walk away from here.
I'm supposed to walk away from here.
And whose life do I lead?
Whose blood do I bleed?
Whose air do I now breathe?
I'm convinced there's nothing more.
The day you died I lost my way.
The day you died I lost my mind.
What am I supposed to do?
Is there something more?
The engines power down.
Like a soldier to his end I go.
Because I'm convinced
that there is nothing more.
and whose life do I lead
and whose air do I breathe?
With whose skin and whose blood do I feel?
What happens now?
Have I done something wrong?
Forgive my need to bleed right now.
Please forgive my need to breathe
But I've so much to say
and it wouldn't matter anyway.
You're not here to hear these words that I must say
and I'm convinced inside
that there is nothing more.
Whose life do I lead?
Whose air do I breathe.
Whose blood do I now bleed?
With whose skin now do I feel?
I have nothing left to say.
I have nothing left to feel.
Am I supposed to let this go now,
let darkness come and take you away?
