    What hits me is that she uses her body to animate her partner's body after he has died in an attempt to "bring him back to life"... the story being told is that this would be her last chance to interact with him in the ways they perhaps had when he was living: i.e fighting, rolling around, dancing, kissing, sitting together, etc. All of the emotions that took place between the two of them when he was alive. Like we are watching the life of their relationship flash before our eyes. We see her conflicting desire to touch his body but also being scared of it because it's not him anymore, how she expresses anger, passion and love towards the body. All so very understandable, touching and eerily haunting at the same time.

      The bloke is cocaine. For a fleeting moment there, it may give you a bit of comfort, but keep trying with it and it goes nowhere. Stick with the beer and just bump a bit of coke if you get too pissed :)

      For me its about addiction and slowly severing a piece of ourselves from another piece of ourselves. Letting go of what's "dead" and what isn't useful for us to survive in a world that is doing its best to numb us out like the male figure already is

I'm really really really not going to detail here but what if they ignited that spark? It's the what ifs what path could have they pleased together where I might have their Stars aligned and intersected and ran parallel and possibly turned into a supernova or whatever?.. we will never know because that moment was passed by and they kept walking I picked you for a reason or part on the table I can't remember why I kept scrolling and I stopped on you because you stood out from the pack somehow and sex drugs and rock and roll gets to eventually IE me and sing this now but I appreciate your point of view so another day and wonderland another dollar in Hollywood I guess this is just another example of something I always sign off by saying kindness is key and love is the law and then I throw in a couple meows and howls...

    2) Anger -> She drags him and moves him hard, for falling into overdose.
    3) Bargaining -> She dances with him and carries him, saying in a way, "Relax, I can carry you for the rest of your life".
    4) depression -> Perform a little dance with him and drop him.
    5) acceptance -> sits on him and drinks.

    This broke me I'm literally shattered, it's like they're doing an interpretive dance of my relationship with my child's father for the last eleven years... I always used to say he was dead inside, even though his body was there he was always a million miles away. I could have his body but that was it. I did everything, I carried us, I fought for us, while he just lay there limp. I picked him up and propped him up with my own body, I did anything I could to get a reaction out of him and nothing ever worked. He said the words I love you but he put as much effort into it as this guy here did. And it kills me to see how hard she's trying, and how frustrating she is and how clearly devastated, she's in denial. And at the end when she finally gives up, she still doesn't leave, she just starts to drink. That's how much she loves him.

    Great song! Alt-J music never disappoints. I'm sure I heard the word cocaine mentioned enough times to assume this was about cocaine overdose. She woke up from her "high" but he didn't and then the knowledge of that sinks in and she begins to freak out.

    If I'd kept practicing to act like I was dead when I tried to fool my sisters at 5, I could be that good, as the actor one day, and finally made them believe that I was dead haha! Besides that, every inch of my body filled with admiration. Fascinating music video and the song of course!

I have endured much pain which has made me stronger but I also learned that I will not allow myself to be a doormat passed the point I can tolerate. This is where we are today. I DO love him oh so dearly but if the balance is offset again I will walk. One can only give so much of themselves away before being the fool to themselves. A fool I will not be again.

    Lyrics for those like me
    “Bricked up a kilo
    Paneled down in the back door
    All the while I'm riding
    To auditions I'm not getting
    Why do I keep on returning to you?
    All American jawlines
    One moment going over scene lines
    Grind the scripts
    Like teeth
    Why do I keep on returning to you?
    Cocaine
    Cocaine
    Swarm of TV cameras
    Click and stumble at the Chateau
    Later, I hear John's
    Body got carried out
    Ice cream was a code word
    Told to me by a code man
    These nice hotels
    I don't know your clientele
    Why do I keep on returning to you?
    (Cocaine) cocaine
    (Cocaine) cocaine
    Why do I keep on returning to you?
    (Give me some ice cream)
    Give it to me now, oh, now
    I'm in the deepest end of an empty pool
    (He's never gonna make it)
    (He's never gonna make it in LA)
    I'm in the deepest end of an empty pool
    Cocaine
    Cocaine
    I'm in the deepest end of an empty pool
    (He's never gonna make it)
    (He's never gonna make it in LA)
    I'm in the deepest end of an empty pool
    (He's never gonna make it) cocaine
    (He's never gonna make it) cocaine”

      I listen to every song three times
      first with my heart
      then with my ears
      then with my eyes(like every good trilogy the last one is split into two parts)
      Part 1.. visually
      Part 2.. lyrically
      Feel it here it see it read it
      ... And then I compare notes..
      That's the one thing in every description it's a little arrow thingy you can click I know I'm so eloquent 😋
      "my name is Mr Know it all!... I am so eloquent!.. Confucius is my middle name!.. and,.......um, ........... whatever, rhymes, with~ eloquent?!!!(?), !¡?¿?‽!!‽¿¿!!¡¡""
      But in all seriousness I know I'm silly maybe as a default setting autopilot or even sometimes a defense or coping mechanism I don't know but I don't ever want to take anything away from the gravity of whatever the scenario whatever it may be at hand.... I guess...well..."they" do say that laughter is the best medicine after all... But I think it's a close second to Alt-J... Anymeow...well... hey there stranger thanks for letting me bend your ear... They say the wisest people in the world know they know nothing at all and I don't know much but I do know this kindness is key and love is the law...
      And if somebody ODS ..
      }up or down{ ∆CPR
      ...( Jusht keep their heart beating and keep them a'breathin' )
      ...and get them outside, try to keep them alive
      and then make sure to make that phone call....
