About the artwork
you (the consensus) to me (reality) is the six song of The Consensus of Reality EP and it's one of my favorite, a cute ballad for hards times. The video is one of the last I made form the collection so i had a lot of video for this one, but the message its simple, its a love ballad, sometime sad sometime hopefull so i went with the crying eyes that i had prompted a lot.
