The Bitter Truth
A woman is showing her lower face as she is against a black background. She is opening her mouth, exposing a pill above her tongue with a drawn face in it. The words "Evanescece" are placed above her while the words "The Bitter Truth" are placed beneath her, stylized in all capital letters.
