The story and feel of our video is a young prosperous male trying to escape the previous life style he had made for himself. He wants to find the man inside him hence the title the man in me. In our video we will portray this by showing him being chased by people in blacked out clothing and no face. Also by Him not being able to change the channel on the TV because he just keeps seeing himself. In the chorus we will repeat the house shots of him thinking.
