Abstract depiction of Sia's- Chandelier by Port Huron Artist AJBC Photography

Party girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will I learn
I push it down, push it down

I'm the one "for a good time call"
Phone's blowin' up, they're ringin' my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink
1,2,3 1,2,3 drink
1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

Throw 'em back, 'til I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

But I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes

Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cos I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cos I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight

Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink
1,2,3 1,2,3 drink
1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

throw 'em back, 'til I loose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

I'm just holding on for tonight

As ridiculous as this series appears, I love it. I personally don't use alcohol to cope with life, and I don't find myself depressed (regardless of if my art makes me look like a hot mess, haha!) but I can imagine the haziness depicted in these images is what that would feel like. 
I urge you to watch the video to make sense of all this. I enjoyed this song but was totally blown away by the video. So simple yet so powerful. And Maddie Ziegler is downright brilliant! 
I chose to do this series out of focus because you don't need my face to understand what the individual might be going through. You just need the movement. Of course I had to play up the hair, because that IS Sia. That's all Sia is, which is even more cool. Which brings me back again to- It's not about the artist or the specific person, it's about the story.
