This document outlines lyrics and plans for a music video narrative. The narrative follows a character who wakes up alone in nature and is chased by threatening figures. Throughout the song and video, the scene cuts between the artist singing and the character being pursued in slow motion. Near the end, the character faces the camera in a close-up before turning back to the figures and running toward them, at which point the video ends in a flash of white. The lyrics and video are intended to tell a story through this repeated motif of the character waking alone and being chased.

1. Lyrics Planning

2. • Shake me down,
Not a lot of people left
around,
Who knows now,
Softly laying on the
ground, ooooh
Not a lot people left
around, ooooh. Ooooh.
• With this first verse I
would start with a
narrative. I would start off
with a character waking
up in somewhere solitude
like a field or forest and
looking around and
realising he is alone.
Throughout the narrative
everything will be played
in slow motion.

3. • In my life, I have seen,
People walk into the sea,
Just to find memories,
Plagued by constant
misery,
Their eyes cast down,
Fixed upon the ground,
Their eyes cast down.
I'll keep my eyes fixed on
the sun.
• This verse will also be
narrative. With the drop
of the next verse the
character will quickly turn
around to see 2 figures
running towards him
threateningly. The figures
may be something along
the lines of an angry
mob, zombies, or some
kind of monsters. Again
this will be in slow
motion.

4. • Shake me down,
Cut my hair on a silver
cloud,
Broken sound,
Softly laying on the ground,
ooooh
Not a lot people left
around, ooooh, ooooh.
• Between the lyrics “I’ll keep
my eyes fixed on the sun”
and the start of this verse
there will be a short shot of
the artist who will be
performing but not at the
moment as there is no
lyrics. This verse will be
narrative again of the
character still being chased
and then falling onto the
ground. Just as the figures
are about to reach him the
scene cuts to black at the
end of the verse.

5. • In my past, bittersweet,
There's no love between
the sheets,
Taste the blood, broken
dreams,
Lonely times indeed,
With eyes cast down,
Fixed upon the ground,
Eyes cast down.
I'll keep my eyes fixed on
the sun.
• The scene goes from black
and cuts to another setting
where the character wakes
up again in a different place.
Again he looks around and
sees no one around as he
starts to walk off he turns
around again and sees 2
different figures chasing
after him. He then starts to
run again. This is also in
slow motion.

6. • Turn back now its time
for me to let go,
Way down had to find a
place to lay low,
Lampshade turned
around into a light post.
• In this verse the video
constantly flicks back
between the artist
singing and the
character being chased

7. • Walk around the corner,
Never saw it coming still,
I try to make a move,
It almost stopped me
from belief,
I don't wanna know the
future,
But I'm like rolling
thunder,
• Much like the verse
before the video flicks
between the artist singing
and the character being
chased.

8. • Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
• In this verse the
character stops right in
front of the camera, the
shot is a close up of the
character. He looks into
the camera, sighs then
turns around, looking
towards the 2 figures
chasing him.

9. • I'll keep my eyes fixed
on the-
I'll keep my eyes fixed
on the-
I'll keep my eyes fixed
on the sun.
• For this whole verse the
character starts to run
towards the figures, and
just as he’s about to
meet them the video
flashes into white which
then fades into the
artist singing the next
verse.

10. • Shake me down,
Not a lot of people left
around, ooooh, ooooh.
• This verse is of just the
artist singing and then a
the very end of the last
word the character
wakes up again. The
shot finishes with a
hasty transition to
black.
