    I was trying to remember the name of this song but i only knew the melody and the video, so i searched "indie video guy in a top hat pursuing fleeing girl with 2 pigs" and i really didn't expect to find it 😂😂😂😂

      Cause for some reason my subconscious thought they were wearing suits in a black and white video lol

    I was a junior in high school when this song came out and I was talking to college to get recruited for college. For some reason this song and mainly the video depiction really resonated with me. I felt like the world was my oyster and I could go anywhere. Years later I’d always think about this song but not remember how to find it… glad almost 10 years later it’s back in my life giving me the same optimism.

      I wasn't at a mental hospital when I first heard this song; although iv'e been to plenty of them in San Diego and Modesto Ca. Too many to count. I first heard it after I moved to Spokane Washington, and I didn't have any friends or anybody to talk to, and then one day I heard this song walking to the store, and I just thought it was one of the saddest songs that I ever heard.

    lyrics:
    Count back, anaesthetise
    Colours burnt into my eyes
    Life for you is shades of grey
    Help me, help me find my way
    Lost, lost, and never found
    Hide your secrets, settle down
    I am young and I am naive
    Tell me something I will believe
    Take me, take me far away
    From this city's soul decay
    Hid away 'til I was eighteen
    Only saw colours on a TV screen
    Skinny jeans and sunglasses
    A fashion statement for the masses
    What you're doing makes me sick
    Over hyped and generic
    Shine, shine, like the sun
    Spread your warmth through everyone
    I asked you why people die
    You said we all had a design
    Slide into the sea
    Landslide comin' down on me
    I said I was into you
    You said you were into me
    You never answer on the phone
    With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
    I look for you by the underpass
    Looks like this love wasn't meant to last
    You said you reap just what you sow
    So tell me where does your garden grow
    You said in time the pain would pass
    Looks like the end is here at last
    Burn, burn, like a star
    Burn a hole in every heart
    Strung out on a trail of blood
    Who knew the stars were not enough?
    Smile, smile if you can
    If you can't, I'll understand
    See these stitches in my eyes
    Smash computers, kill rock stars
    Purge the past and waste my mind
    Leave no scent or trace behind
    One day when you bury me
    When I wake up, what will I see?
    Down, down, underground
    Dig for fire, dig for sound
    What is on the radio?
    'Cause I would like to say hello
    Crawl, crawl through the dirt
    Jesus, show me what you're worth
    Can't you just send us a sign?
    Tell us all that we're doing fine
    Nights for sitting in the dark
    Days for lying in the park
    Wake me up from my sick dream
    A requiem for this dead scene
    You never answer on the phone
    With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
    I look for you by the underpass
    Looks like this love wasn't meant to last
    You said you reap just what you sow
    Well tell me where does your garden grow
    You said in time the pain would pass
    Looks like the end is here at last
    Count back, anaesthetise
    Colours burnt into my eyes
    Life for you is shades of grey
    Help me, help me find my way
    Mother, can't you help me now?
    'Cause I've been drowning in the sound
    Lying on the motorway
    Writing songs and wasting away

      Isn't it amazing what a human can do? We've been to the moon, we've gone far beneath the water to places our evolutionary build does not allow us to go, we've flown, we've developed a way to entertain ourselves without leaving our habitats, we've become civilized. But isn't it terrifying what a human can do? We've developed nuclear bombs capable of wiping a country off the face of the planet, we've developed vehicles that will eventually kill our planet, we've developed weaponry to make it easier to kill, we've killed our own kind not of necessity but over such petty things. We as humans aren't civilized. We will never be civilized. There will always be conflicts within our species. Why? Because we're self aware. Our brain's own capabilities have formed us drawbacks destructive enough to end our own species.

    @Jay-or5ex 8 лет назад +3288

    The lyrics is talking about a boy who loved a girl, who she claimed that they both had mutual feelings for each other, in reality, she was just being nice. The lyrics to me is a representation of those "nice people" and false personalities. Which can also connect to Society and how two-faced society is.
    "Spread your warmth to everyone" "With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone" "Who knew the stars were not enough"
    The video, can represent how society treats individuals. To me, I think of it as... The man wearing the top-hat could be Society. The Pigs are those who work for society, people who strive to be perfect and ideal, to the point where they are masked and unknown to themselves, listening to what ever society sees as good. The girl could be every other individual who is being assimilated to the rules of society. The man wearing the top-hat driving the car is the physical attractiveness we see in people. We tend to fall for people who are superficial or perhaps seem to be perfect/nice. When in reality, they can be complete sociopaths. "Fitting in" is a plague, it is a man-made infection that we pass to others on a daily basis. In advertisements, models,etc. Lastly, when the Doctor slices the pig's mask it foreshadows that you are useless to society if you can't follow their policies.
    In conclusion, for me, don't be nice. Be genuine. Be aware of those who surround you.

I got the help i needed and got better. I get depressed time to time but my little brothers and sister make it all worth it. I'm trying. I have to be strong. I have to stay in the game for them.

    Count back, anaesthetise
    Colours burnt into my eyes
    Life for you is shades of grey
    Help me, help me find my way
    Lost, lost, and never found
    Hide your secrets, settle down
    I am young and I am naïve
    Tell me something I will believe
    Take me, take me far away
    From this city's soul decay
    Hid away 'til I was eighteen
    Only saw colours on a TV screen
    Skinny jeans and sunglasses
    A fashion statement for the masses
    What you're doing makes me sick
    Over hyped and generic
    Shine, shine like the sun
    Spread your warmth through everyone
    I asked you why people die
    You said we all had a design
    Slide into the sea
    Landslide comin' down on me
    I said I was into you
    You said you were into me
    You never answer on the phone
    With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
    I look for you by the underpass
    Looks like this love wasn't meant to last
    You said you reap just what you sow
    So tell me, where does your garden grow?
    You said in time the pain would pass
    Looks like the end is here at last
    Burn, burn like a star
    Burn a hole in every heart
    Strung out on a trail of blood
    Who knew the stars were not enough?
    Smile, smile if you can
    If you can't, I'll understand
    See these stitches in my eyes
    Smash computers, kill rockstars
    Purge the past and waste my mind
    Leave no scent or trace behind
    One day when you bury me
    When I wake up, what will I see?
    Down, down underground
    Dig for fire, dig for sound
    What is on the radio?
    'Cause I would like to say hello
    Crawl, crawl through the dirt
    Jesus, show me what you're worth
    Can't you just send us a sign?
    Tell us all that we're doing fine
    Nights for sitting in the dark
    Days for lying in the park
    Wake me up from my sick dream
    A requiem for this dead scene
    You never answer on the phone
    With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
    I look for you by the underpass
    Looks like this love wasn't meant to last
    You said you reap just what you sow
    Well tell me, where does your garden grow?
    You said in time the pain would pass
    Looks like the end is here at last
    Count back, anaesthetise
    Colours burnt into my eyes
    Life for you is shades of grey
    Help me, help me find my way
    Mother, can't you help me now?
    'Cause I've been drowning in the sound
    Lying on the motorway
    Writing songs and wasting away

  • @Islandboytb
    @Islandboytb 9 лет назад +63

    I'll take a stab at it. Before we try to come to a conclusion let's look at different elements of the video. All characters have had their face hidden. Especially with the masks it leads me to think a prevalent theme of this piece is dehumanization. However masks are used only on the male characters. The men with pig masks are stripped from their humanity completely and represented as senseless beasts that are slaves to their master. The girl is covered completely at first but eventually is able to escape. The video relies almost completely on symbols alone which allows different interpretations of the overall meaning. Personal I think the video is a representation of power in society. Often there are leaders in control that like to limit and even treat those under them as lesser beings. However their is a positive message with the girl escaping. She is able to find release and perhaps this offers hope that there may be a better way of exerting leadership but also treating others in general.

      Not only does my brain hurt from your information, but I can now say to myself that there are intelligent people to understand the meaning or meanings in this case of a unique music video such as this one. Though in my opinion, it is at points incredibly difficult to find people that would read such a long comment, and one as is brilliant as yours, I also must be completely honest with it though your interpretation of the video, or interpretations are incredibly unique and your way of it being compered to such a political overview of it. I don't think I could have thought of it as dehumanization, but you did. Your comment made me think twice about the viewings and sound of it. I hope you keep it like that, as it is also difficult to discover someone with your questionable and answerable abilities.

    • @Chascoso
      @Chascoso 10 лет назад +122

      This song, for me, is about trying to convey a seemingly conventional message to a girl dominated by the material lifestyle. he says "take me away from this city's soul decay." He wants to get away from man-made life, and he finally does and see's how good it is. He still loves this girl though.. and thats the problem. he wants her to stop being so generic and he wants her to feel the beauty of the "colors" of life rather than just seeing them on the television. the lyrics also say that she wasnt answering her phone. so in a hyperbolic sort of way, i feel that "the funeral suits" are reiterating and displaying the fact that it is so hard to dig some girls out of this way of thinking. after trying to call her to no avail, he goes to the extreme, he kidnaps her.. The whole time she thinks he is going to kill her but in reality he is forcefully showing her the beautiful part of life, that which is nature. The pigs in the video, in my opinion, symbolize the hungry and horny men in our generation trying to get a piece of her drooling all the way. the only way to escape these men is to become usurped by nature, so she runs into the ocean, free at last. The guy with the weird nose kills the pig subliminally saying he wants to get rid of the obnoxious and horny men that only care about the girls looks and nothing on a more deep and intellectual level.

    Between the lyrics and the video my first interpretation of the song was that it was about human trafficking.
    Teen girl is under the impression that she is in love and that her boyfriend will take her away from her current situation, but instead the boyfriend kidnaps her and locks her away
    * The girl is in the trunk of a car and then lead on a leash.
    * "I am young and I am naive, Tell me something I will believe.
    take me take me faraway from this city's soul decay. Hid away til I was 18. Only saw colors on a tv screen."
    * "I said I was into you. You said you were into me."
    Then he sells her off as a prostitute.
    * The two men in masks are a representation of the people he is selling her off to.
    * They are wearing pig masks because they are "pigs" for paying a prostitute for sex.
    * "What your doing makes me sick"
    * "Spread your warmth through everyone."
    * "I look for you by the underpass. Looks like this love wasn't meant to last"
    * "Smile Smile if you can, if you can't i'll understand."
    " "Mother can't you help me now. Cause i've been drowning in the sound. Lying on the motorway."
    Her only way out of the situation is to commit suicide
    * She jumps into the ocean at the end of the video and swims under the water.
    * "I asked you why people die. You said we all have a design."
    * "You said in time the pain would pass. Looks like the end is here at last."
    * "Strung out on a trail of blood."
    * "Wake me up from this sick dream. A requiem for this dead scene."
    I know that the song is probably actually about an abusive relationship but this is what i thought of when i first saw the video.

      Nope, all I gotta say is this video was loosely based off lord of the flies, hence the theme of pigs. And there is both a sequel to this and a prequel the prequel being about the masked man as a child, and the other being about the woman reaching an island with more women and an apparent trouble of little kids, the masked man being their leader it looks like.
