Radical Face - Everything Costs - The Family Tree: The Leaves (Official)

Radical Face - Everything Costs - The Family Tree: The Leaves
"Everything Costs", is the companion video for "The Road To Nowhere" • Radical Face - The Roa... .
They're on parallel time lines, with the protagonists of each are affecting each other's lives without knowing it. As always, it was made with friends and volunteers here in Jacksonville, and shot by Michael Walter (who made the lyric video for Secrets) and Mark Hubbard (who shot The Mute, and a bunch of others).
This song was originally for the younger sibling in the song “Sisters.” But during the making of this album, my own family had a huge falling out that left me adopting a child and selling my home, among other events. I did not intend to work myself into this family tree so directly, but life happens. This song is now from my own point of view.

I simply don’t have words. Absolutely heaven sent.

[@zehantig]

A lot of Ben's musics have that kind of... "sad beauty". This is one of them, mostly after reading about the history behind it.

[@lea3ify]

what's the story please? :)

[@lea3ify]

Wow...

[@agustopia]

oh wow, where did u read that? i would love to read more about the history behind these beautiful songs

[@zehantig]

www.npr.org/2016/04/04/472541620/when-the-page-becomes-a-mirror-radical-face This is a radio interview Ben made last year. He talks about this, and some other things he's been through in his life.

[@LMelectronics0]

@@zehantig is there any link that can help read stories behind family tree's albums' songs?

[@Sixsoul]

In a very deep catalogue full of songs I relate to more than any other artist by a mile, this has to be top 3 all time Ben song for me. The video as well perfectly encapsulates what it's like to be the black sheep. Or in my case the black cat And the callback to ghost towns always gets me crying. So beautiful and apropos

Lyrics: Dreams like coins down a well Till I realized I was dumb for believing To the bird with no flight The skies don't ever offer respite So I wandered off And went to fill the holes in my shadow But everything costs Etched into the backs of my hair I heard you say that you've lost You've lost you've lost you've lost your way But I don't think you had much to lose That house was never built for you And I ain't gonna hang my head for them, for them And I ain't gonna let them paint the truth as sin And I ain't gonna tell you it's okay when at the end of the day You were just something to blame A face pressed into your hands Couldn't tell if you were crying or laughing They both sound the same When you ain't got no skin in the game So I took up the fight And the rolling in my head was like thunder Till I uncurled my fists And allowed myself to not give a damn I heard you say that we've lost We've lost we've lost we've lost our way But I don't think we had much to lose That path was never built for us And I ain't gonna hang my head for them, for them And I ain't gonna let them paint the truth as sin And I ain't gonna tell you it's okay when at the end of the day You were just something to blame

The atmosohere is brilliantly portrayed in this video. The color shades are perfect. And I honestly love how the stories are coming together in the music videos. Well done, Ben and friends!

[@Gummigoo_under_the_map]

Ben your songs are a great pleasure to listen to, a lot of them speak directly to me and have had me in tears. I'll continue to follow your music for as long as you put it out.

[@s.morrisroe177]

This still hits me, all the time. What beautiful power despite all of that pain.

[@christophmier9639]

Another awesome song from another awesome record. Thank you for this great music.

[@Ryan_hey]

so amazingly woven, calmly yet deeply moving, tones non-intrusive, just simply pouring through the ears, into the body, with a magnificence all its own.

[@JoeJohaneman]

So beautiful and yet so painful to listen to. I know what it's like to be someone to blame. Thanks Ben. A lot of your music speaks to me, but I think this song does more so than any other you've released so far.

[@melissasherwood6980]

This is beautiful! I love the parallels! I'm so thankful for your music and the stories of both reality and fantasy that you have shared with us so beautifully !

[@sensagrav2902]

I love how every song you make is tells a story. Especially when it tells based on your experience. Thanks for letting us live your life through your songs.

[@Война2022-х3ъ]

I love to listen to Radical Face while I am working on my PC - these songs are so relaxing and charming, they help me to focus on work and to deal with stress

[@horsesrmylife78]

I can't get enough of the Road to Nowhere and Everything Costs music videos! I love what you did with these so so much! I'm dying for more music videos, but even if you don't have any more in store for this album, thank you so much!

[@claimedbytheearth]

This video is awesome and the song... Its just too pretty, your my favorite musician and i am reminded of why with this kind of songs. Thank you.

[@cozmicdoodles7167]

Ahhhhhh! it all makes sense now! I was wondering who the girl at the end of The Road To Nowhere was! Now it makes sense! :D On another note, i'm sorry to hear about your family's falling out. I hope everything gets better for you. :(

[@goldfishcrayon]

I can't stop listening to your beautifully sad music. Thank you for creating it.

Why the mother is so scared when he saw the kid?

[@Zanyzarah]

+Music Collapse from what i can gather, the mother is in mourning-- she starts out wearing all black, and the passage of time is shown as she progresses to half-mourning with the black and green gown. the boy is shown with a blood splatter on his shirt, and dark sunken eyes. i think for all intents and purposes, that boy might be a dead brother.

[@kevinmatthews4793]

+sarah arquitt The boy is the one from The Road to Nowhere video, who killed The Gilded Hand. The notes he was writing on the wall appear to the girl in this video. I'm pretty sure she is his sister. The mouse is also with him in the other video. I'm guessing she was pretending to mourn him but was actually happy he was gone, which is why seeing him scared her.

[@Zanyzarah]

Kevin Matthews i havent seen that video, i guess i need to go watch it now

[@lanthilis]

+Music Collapse The boy is from the Road to Nowhere video, who killed the Gilded Hand, like Kevin said. The videos happen kind of simultaneously. You'll notice the Gilded Hand in the tea party. The mom and him are friends. When she sees that the boy the Gilded Hand has been experimenting on has escaped, she runs to tell the Gilded Hand (then she'll presumably find his body and disappear). It's just the final nail in the coffin of how bad a mom she is. She abandons her daughter to warn her terrible friend.

[@melissasherwood6980]

+sarah arquitt OMG you're so right !
