Description

:EDIT - edited the figure, her outline and hair:

Second image i've made for Evanescence lyrics. This is for Lithium.

~~~~~~

Lyrics-
Lithium, don't want to lock me up inside.
Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...
Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow.
Oh, but God, I want to let it go.

Come to bed, don't make me sleep alone.
Couldn't hide the emptiness, you let it show.
Never wanted it to be so cold.
Just didn't drink enough to say you love me.

I can't hold on to me,
Wonder what's wrong with me.

Lithium, don't want to lock me up inside.
Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...
Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow.

Don't want to let it lay me down this time.
Drown my will to fly.
Here in the darkness I know myself.
Can't break free until I let it go.
Let me go.

Darling, I forgive you after all.
Anything is better than to be alone.
And in the end I guess I had to fall.
Always find my place among the ashes.

I can't hold on to me,
Wonder what's wrong with me.

Lithium, don't want to lock me up inside.
Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...
Lithium, ...stay in love with my sorrow.
I'm gonna let it go.

Any crit would help greatly. Second in my series of Evanescence illustrations.

This image I have been developing for a few months now and its original lyrics I had been working to were 'Snow White Queen' but the Evanmeisters decided to release a video holding pretty much most of the imagery I was using so I've changed some stuff around to match the song and video(I knew some smart arse would probably comment on it looking like the lithium vid anyway). I have kept some imagery from the previous design such as the being trapped in a snow glode, which holds the image. I thought it was an interesting idea. This is also why the hair, lace and dress is moving how it is (underwater). I have had mixed feed back from people about this. It is mostly liked but one person who is going un-named thought it looked like the sea witch from the Little Mermaid...
Figure reference taken from photographs I have taken of my sis. Hope people like it.

This is going to be my last submisson before Christmas so I wish you all a great Crimbo and an even better New Year!
