Music video lyric review


Music video lyric review
Glass Wall

Verse

You took a broken heart, mended it then crushed it again

Man I don’t even blame you, I was only trying to save you

But that only went and got my stupid self in a mess

Coz there’s a glass wall stuck between the both of us

Yeah I can see the real you

So many attempts trying to penetrate through your insecurities reaching out so I could feel you

(These first four bars of lyrics shows a personal account of the regret of the main character for getting involved with the Ex-Girlfriend. Which will be represented in the first three shots of the storyboard. Showing the thoughts running through his mind)

 

But I failed, so arguments turn into fights, and fights turn into wars

I’m tired of all the lies and the violations

Tired of trying to fight a never ending situation

Tired of feeling used for your own gain, what’s the point of fighting if you don’t feel the same way?

The real you is like a butterfly, behind the glass wall but all I see is your ugly side

(This shows an oxymoron between track and video. Although the audience will be watching them go through good times in his flash back, the lyrics in the verse suggest that even though it was all smiles in the begging it was a frustrated relationship this will be represented in the next six shots)

 

And now thanks to you, I built my own wall

I won’t ever let another woman drain me, I won’t ever let another woman faze

Coz what you’ve done to me turned me crazy

 

 

And what I didn’t realize was that trying to find the real you, only ended up I me loosing myself

Ending up in me fooling myself, maybe you’re the glass wall and nobodies behind it.

(These lyrics lead up to the climax of the song where the pace of the video begins to speed up, where he is about to catch his GF red handed. Chorus begins when he walks through his living room door and facial expression is shown from his reaction to what he see’s)

 

 

 

Chorus:

And I’ve been drowning in your love

I’m suffocation I can’t swim no more

So let me breathe

Let me breathe

Oh let me breath oh let me breathe

Once again, hey hey yeah yeah once again.

(These lyrics represent the emotional drain and stress he has gone through and has finally had enough. This is represented by him preparing the bath tub to drown himself. “Let me breathe” represents the relief that death will bring him being the only thing he believes will take a away the pain)

  1. Nana, I am really disappointed in this blog. There is virtually nothing here and you have not given any thought to the design features. You will not succeed by simply uploading at the last minute as you need to evidence your process throughout the project. Vanessa
