The music video is about two lovers in a strange abstract world, and the video seems to tell the story of how their love quickly withers away until one leaves the other alone. Towards the end of the video, one of the band's amplifiers explodes along with two of the guitars linking to the love life falling apart.
Mise en scene
The band is playing in a dark room with nothing surrounding them other than their instruments. The lead singer is sometimes with the band and sometimes looks as if he is in the same place as the lovers (By the cliff edge under a tree). The lead singer shows a lot of emotion as if he is really in one of the lovers situations.
Camera
The camera flicks between the story behind the song with the lovers, the band playing the song, and the lead singer showing his emotions. There are various different shots of the band and the story. Later in the video the camera focuses on the instruments exploding, linking the band playing to the story as everything is falling apart including the lovers lives shown literally here with them breaking into pieces.
Editing
Short shots are used to flick between what is going on, the music is synchronized with the moving images. When the amplifier and guitars explode the music crescendos’, making the track link even more so to the video.
