In this video, the intro starts off with a series of shots of low angle, over the shoulder, panning and side shots that helps biuld the video up. The song starts of with a clean affect guitar where the little melody eventually leads into a bass line which then leands into a drum beat as well. The song then progressivily gets heavier into distorted guitars with heavy sound affects. The video then jums to the band playing in a garage where the camera angles consist of close ups of the guiatist playing. During this the video jumps from the story scene to the band playing. During the story scene we see some panning shots as well as tracking shots that help lead the audience into the story. as we continue through the video we see a number of close ups and camera angles that focus purley on the main charachter in the story who is also the lead singer in the band. As the song is of an aggressive nature, it fits the genre of music which is "Metal" and fits in with the story line. We see the scene where the song becomes heavier when there is confrontation in the story such as the man and woman arguing and pushing each other. During the heavy sections of the song the video cuts to the band playing in an agressive style to match the song. This again leads the audience further into the story. Another aspect that shows the audience about the story is we see several close ups of the bassist and the drummer to show the heavy and deep nature of the song and video. As the vocals get heavier and loudewr, we see the two main charachters from the story upset and distressed. This again leads and biulds up to a more depressing scene. As we arrive closer to the end of the song and video we see the video get more serious and morbid. All instruments get heavier and louder and builds up to an ending that finishes of with the little melody that we began with. The video ends with quick jump shos that represent flashbacks and finally finishes with the main character spreading ashes over a bed. At this point the camera angle is low low which signifies the importance of the person and situation. The mise-en scene is a typical metal look. All band members have tattoos with sleevless shrts and most of them have long hair. The lighting is mainly a dark affect to potray the dark subject of the video which is death, love, anger and misery.
