LYRICS:
so you want to mess with me
caught me in a silent scream
heat filling up my cheeks
not exactly what you think
see you in the room next door
your feet float above the floor
dress torn above your knees
like you've owned it for centuries...
dots and dashes on the wall
you tell me about the falls
of kingdoms and champions
you've seen a thousand times before
I show you my private things
like my scrapbook of fantasies
you say I look a little too green
for saving...
I'm already bored
I'm already wise
I'm already worn
I'm already wondering 'what am I?'
I'm already rough
I'm already lean
I'm already wanting to be obscene
I'm already cursed
I'm already dry
I'm already wondering 'what am I?'
I've already learned a bit of sin
enough already, let me in...
we signal in a moonbeam
I beg you to follow me
you say that I'll be surprised at the codes in a sunrise
but if I don't like what I see
and my grip starts loosening
the edge of the big reveal
could be the end of the story...
I just saw innocence spinning around spinning around
should I step in and blow it all down blow it all away?...
I'm already bored
I'm already wise
I'm already worn
I'm already wondering 'what am I?'
I'm already rough
I'm already lean
I'm already waiting to be obscene
I'm already cursed
I'm already dry
I'm already wondering 'what am I?'
I've already learned a bit of sin enough already, let me in
we signal in a moonbeam
I beg you to follow me
you say that I'll be surprised at the codes in a sunrise
but if I don't like what i see and my grip starts loosening
the edge of the big reveal
could be the end of the story...

[@jojdivision]

In 2018 I fell in love with an old friend. she was so amazing and fun and beautiful. we always rode our bikes around town, went to see the stars, smoke and talk. I was confused about my sexuality, and when I told her I was falling for her, she was under no obligation to deal with my messed up head. she stopped talking to me, and I never had the courage to call her again, even though I thought about her all these years. our story is very similar to the story of the girls in the video, and this song always reminded me of our story and my love for her. yesterday, she passed away in a motorcycle accident. I never got the chance to see her for the last time, to tell her that I now understand my feelings for her and that I always loved her, even though I kept the feeling dormant. I wish I had the chance to do that, because now I don't know what to do with this feeling.

[@JosefineLea]

I think that the story the video tells is just a fantasy that the girl with the tall hair has. Look at how they're wearing the same clothes throughout the entire video, and how it starts off with her running towards the other girl and getting onto her bike - but that never actually happens because at the end you see that she never left the field and the other girl got into a car with some guy. Still very sad, I adore this video. It's beautiful.

[@itsjessielou]

I relate to your story. I was such a baby gay back then. I was 19 and it was the year I came out to my family. I didn't used to see many LGBTQ+ music videos back then as I do these days. Seeing some LGBTQ representations certainly helped me figure out how I wanted to make my coming out. The emotions in this video are similar to how I felt back then. Anyways, just to say that the nostalgia hits me hard everytime I listen to this song and everytime I watch this videoclip too.

[@miguelitomarques8]

I've always understood this video as the girl imagining all these scenarios with the other girl, a stranger to her, as she crossed the sidewalk to the car. Like we sometimes imagine a whole life together with a stranger we took a liking for whatever reason, in mere seconds - just to keep our loneliness in check. That, in my mind, is a greater storyline than both of them falling in love, and then everything falling apart.

[@bijayapradhan6319]

i do relate to this music wish i could make her fall for me

[@theloanranger2632]

I agree. The video is not about falling in love or some homosexual relationship like these perverts are making it out to be. The song is definitely not about that either. It's obviously her imagination or daydreaming since the video begins and ends at the same place and time despite the pool swimming and traveling. Sick, twisted, people that see homosexuality in these young girls see it everywhere. Disgusting.

Personally, I think she was just imagining the whole thing. I don't think she ever got with the blonde girl. She just imagined it when she saw her, then she snapped out of it at the end of the video and we saw the true reality.

[@TristanIRL]

I don't think so. I don't think she's shedding tears because she's imaging things, or can't get over a crush. I think they shared a moment. The girl with the long hair fell in love, but the girl with the short hair was just having some fun.

[@ratanatomy8929]

I agree with Tristan, she looked too heartbroken at the end for them to have never been together.

[@23daughters]

Yeah, and at the beginning, the pink haired girl was on a bike and at the end she wasn't, so that suggests it being different time settings.

[@blueowlz]

The pink haired girl is more relaxed as she has no tendencies of hooking up the same way other girl does.. The other one is living through these emotions daily, looking at her because she wants the emotional situation to evolve furthermore the whole setup is made in a way that we're actually looking through the eyes of the brown haired girl.. How the pink girl affects her, in reality.. the pink girl is straight and she doesn't think the way she behaves affects that way to the brown girl. At the end, the pink haired girl leaves with her BF, and the brown girls just stares there, looking how she's leaving again, another day, another loss.. Wishing she was with her..

[@puebloblau420]

@@blueowlz yes, or maybe the brown girl was so sure that the pink girl liked her the same way, with that thought in mind, having so much fun just to find out that the pink girl didn't feel the same and it hurts, cause they didn't share the same feelings with that she realises, her love story is over now

The brunette in the video really looks like an old friend of mine that I let go of 3 years ago. It's her eyes. I wasn't in a happy place in my life and I wasn't the friend she needed me to be. Unknowingly and unvoluntarily we had developed feelings for each other. There's just no one that ever got me like she did. Now she won't return my calls nor my messages after all this time..only now that she's long gone have I realized what I've lost and how much I miss her...but perhaps I'm just too little too late. Still, thinking that in my life I've come across a person that got me like she did, and knowing that she exists in this world, makes me happy.

For those of us that have experienced the way this video ends and are still stuck in a loop like a revolving door, let me gently suggest moving on whether that is backwards or forwards it is infinitely better than running in circles. The fact is most often if we actually succeed in getting back together, what broke it in the first place, is still there and now it is no longer a relationship of equals, but one of dominance and submission and that rarely ends well for the Submissive. There is no The One. People are a package deal, enjoy them all.on whatever level feels right but hold yourself to your own Path. Don't stay stuck.

@@motivationstash963 You are of course welcome. I'm certainly no expert. I've just seen things go badly when as you noted "one sided feelings" are involved. In fact I've also seen how comfortable it can be for the one on top of that one-sided affair with the knowledge that IF you ever wanted the option, it's there. There used to be a semi comic song entitled, "How Can I Miss You If You Won't Go Away" :) and I'm definitely not promoting appearing to move on as any kind of play. It's probably not wise to pursue someone as a lover who caves to conflict. The point is pining tends to be self perpetuating... just one more reason it's healthier to be happy for the past but live for the ever unfolding future. Best wishes.

Absolutely beautiful (the girls and the video ;).

Stephanie B me too. Like I'm from a part of the world where it's not allowed to have relationships. Like we're really religious like that. So this other guy liked me and I liked him too coz he was good looking and he'd give me so much attention ( not purposely, but I would catch him looking at me and stuff) but I would just act like I don't even recognize his presence and he understood it, obviously. But inside my head I cooked up this story that were dating and we love each other and all serious cute stuff like that. Cut to 5 months later I hear that he's dating some other girl and I felt soo bad that I was crying in the bathroom for hours, not eating anything, talking rudely to others. In my head I was abusing him soo much, calling him a cheater, and all sorts when In reality, he didn't even know that I liked him or noticed him so obviously why would he wait for me. P.S he was really shy and introverted. In my tutorials dating and stuff would mean suspension

Are you sure? The entire video doesn't seem to be consistent with that story. What about the parts toward the end (the shot of her in the bathtub for example) where she looks upset, like she misses the redheaded girl. Why would that be a part of her fantasy?

naterbean33 Shes sad that they're not together and her in the bathtub and being in room sad isn't part of the fantasy, its whats actually going on and how she feels. She wants to be with the other girl and the fact that she isn't/can't upsets her.

I also think at towards the end when there's flashes of brunette on her own, it's her losing touch with the fantasy, and the chances of any reality slipping away.

[@alice.L.]

This is what living in the moment and feeling happy and alive would look like....

[@lifetimesupplyofstaples8514]

Full disclosure. I listen to this song roughly 4-6 times per week (half the time it is while watching this video) because it keeps me motivated to move to California. I have had to live through the brutal Midwest Winters all of my life and sunshine and palm trees make me happy. Wish me luck...

[@lifetimesupplyofstaples8514]

Don't get me wrong, the video and song are very powerful in meaning. It tells a great story. Big time bonus!

[@lifetimesupplyofstaples8514]

Not yet.

[@drpepperr]

Tim Vermeulen My friend I wish you luck in your aspiration. But, gotta tell you, palm trees are just ridiculous. I moved to L.A. from IA in 1985. Palm trees are iconic of Los Angeles, but provide no shade worth mentioning.

[@bizzylizzyb1]

Michigander here. I feel yha, that was my childhood dream. If that is truly what you want for yourself, I hope you accomplish it. I'm obessed with this song I listened to it at least 4 times a day. The story is told just well, and the song matches it so well.

[@Fnberg744]

@Tim Verm how bout now??

[@B__C]

The more I listen to this song, the more I want to hear it again and again. I'm loving the bass rhythm.

[@PollacoG]

The song is so beautiful, everything in it.

[@YAStudio_rusdub]

This really makes me have this feeling of longing inevitability that really crawls through my heart for a while now... This is so beautiful and fragile. People seem to forget how easy it is to part ways with someone who you think will be there forever.

[@kathlynbenassi4105]

whatever happens to me or my life, I always come back to this video. it has its own history, and it's connected to me as no person will ever be

[@ghuff31]

You'll never get that feeling back. You can only have it once and every time thereafter, its lessened.

[@mylesbaumgartner6455]

Nothing makes me think about life more than the fact that this video shows utter happiness through out the whole song then complete heart break at the end.

[@nicky1811]

This may sound weird, but I found this music video playing inside a walmart. They had it on their tv's on a loop, playing every 25 minutes or so, even for Canada, that's hella progressive of walmart to put a music video that's blatant lgbt in a store predominantly visited by suburban families. I was happily suprised and it allowed me to discover this band, so two stones one bird and all.

[@Humanophage]

I don't think anyone cares that it's LGBT. It just sounds like generic pleasant synthpop/postpunk.

[@gux2023]

@@Humanophage have you seen the comments, idiot? Not one person isn't talking about LGBT

[@laughatthemall]

You realize that it's probably workers who load random shit (at least at the one I worked at, we literally just ripped the music videos off KZbin), and Sam Walton himself doesn't issue a royalties-paid approved playlist, right? I think you may be giving the corporate world way too much credit.

[@ceciliamarques7832]

Wow congrats to the gay intern in walmart

[@Yaetora]

Do you throw the bird at the stones?

[@mattshepard3090]

Simply amazing. I cannot get enough of this song and video. They are perfectly matched both lyrically and visually. The girl in this video - her expressions speak volumes. Interpretation is completely open on this, but I take it to mean that we have or will experience the yearning for something more, something better. The past will continue to haunt us so long as we remain sheltered in our own hearts. The girl in this video has clearly experienced loss of some sort. We are led to believe it's love for the other girl, but it could also be loss of faith in her own sexuality. Trapped forever in uncertainty. Enough already. Where does my happiness lie? With her?

So you wanna mess with me? Caught me in a silent scream Heat filling up my cheeks Not exactly what you think See you in the room next door Your feet float above the floor Dress torn above your knees Like you've owned it for centuries Dots and dashes on the wall You tell me about the falls Of kingdoms and champions You've seen a thousand times before I'll show you my private things Like my scrapbook of fantasies You say I look a little too green For saying I'm already born I'm already wise I'm already worn I'm already wonderin' what am I I'm already rough I'm already lean I'm already wanting to be obscene I'm already cursed I'm already dry I'm already wonderin' what am I I've already learned a bit of sin Enough already, let me in We signal in a moonbeam I beg you to follow me You say that I'll be surprised At the codes in the sunrise But if I don't like what I see And my grip starts loosening The edge of the big reveal Could be the end of the story I just saw innocence Spinning around, spinning around Should I step in? And burn it all down Burn it all away I'm already born I'm already wise I'm already worn I'm already wonderin' what am I I'm already rough I'm already lean I'm already wanting to be obscene I'm already cursed I'm already dry I'm already wonderin' what am I I've already learned a bit of sin Enough already, let me in We signal in a moonbeam I beg you to follow me You say that I'll be surprised At the codes in the sunrise But if I don't like what I see And my grip starts loosening The edge of the big reveal Could be the end of the story

Not that the storylines are the same, but the camera and jumping on the bed made me think of Life is Strange when Max and Chloe were dancing in the bedroom to Piano Fire. That moment where you can be more laidback and carefree...

[@Tadwinked]

Man, I've never been that carefree in my entire life. Is it weird that I'm jealous? I've never had a girl break my heart either, so I guess I should be thankful for that. Nice song, nice vid.

The ending line, "the edge of the big reveal could be the end of story" seems to be where the sporty girl realizes her fantasies won't come true, because the girl who she hoped was gay seems to be straight.
