Intro(0:18)
Verse 1
The drought was the very
worst
When the flowers that we'd
grown together died of
thirst
It was months, and months of
back and forth
You're still all over me
like I wine-stained dress I
can't wear anymore
Hung my head, as I lost the
war, and the sky turn black
like a perfect storm
Shots in showers, cutting
back to girl walking through
woods, long medium
shots.(1:04-1:23)
Body shot from feet to face
(1:23-1:27)
Close up of picking up dirt,
brushing it from her hands.
Close up of burning rose,
water being poured over burnt
rose, slow motion. (1:27-2:03)
Silent screams, distress in
the shower (2:03-2:13)
Slow motion shot of water
from shower, miming?
Long shot to girl in field,
close up to her playing with
flower. Looks up to camera on
Chorus
Rain came pouring down when
I was drowning
That's when I could finally
breathe
And that morning, gone was
any trace of you, I think I
am finally clean
Oh,oh
Verse 2
There was nothing left to do
And the butterflies turned
to dust they covered my
whole room
So I punched a hole in the
roof
Let the flood carry away all
my pictures of you
The water filled my lungs, I
screamed so loud but no one
heard a thing
Chorus
Rain came pouring down when
I was drowning
That's when I could finally
breathe
And that morning, gone was
‘said, I think I am finally
clean’(2:13-2:50)
Studio, Bottles all around
the floor, girl pick one up
and places it down with other
bottles, knock them over
(2:50-3:08)
In forest, girl looking down
to the floor, shot of her
head down to feet, look at
the camera, smiling (she is
finally clean!) (3:08-3:31)
Shower shots, close ups and
mid shots, being happy and
feeling free (3:31-3:48)
any trace of you, I think I
am finally clean
I think I am finally clean
Said, I think I am finally
clean
Bridge
10 months sober, I must
admit
Just because you're clean
don't mean you miss it
10 months older I won't give
in
Now that I'm clean I'm never
gonna risk it
The drought was the very
worst
When the flowers that we'd
grown together died of
thirst
Chorus
Rain came pouring down when
I was drowning
That's when I could finally
breathe
And that morning, gone was
any trace of you, I think I
am finally clean
Shots of girl walking through
forest, smiling, dropping the
rose, closeup of rose on
floor, watch her walk away.
(3:48-4:31)
Rain came pouring down when
I was drowning
That's when I could finally
breathe
And that morning, gone was
any trace of you, I think I
am finally clean
