Lyrics Analysis

This could be the very minute
I'm aware I'm alive
All these places feel like home

° Show him looking very confused, lost and unhappy.

° Could use effects to show two rooms next to each other, with her in one room on her own and him cheating on her in the next room. The affair is shown right at the start.

With a name I'd never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of 25

° Could show a clip of him walking, going from a baby to a 25 year old, showing how life has passed him by so quickly.

° Shows flashbacks of him growing up with her, but now all that is lost, as if all his memories mean nothing anymore.

This is the straw, final straw in the
Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
I didn't enjoy it at the time

° She finds out about his affair, video her in slow motion to emphasise the shock and heartbreak she feels. She sees him with the other women, at Embankment on the bridge. Quite a romantic location becomes ironic for the way she feels when she sees him.

° He hates what he done to her but he couldn't help it.

° Although he is sorry he enjoyed having the affair a the time, it was his guilty pleasure, however now he regrets it. Shows him trying to get his girlfriend back.

You're the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

° She is the love of his life. Could show them walking along together as if the are back together. However she slowly fades away from his side and we realise he is dreaming.

° He is begging her to come back to him, but he has lost her for good.

Goodness knows I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth I'm lost for words

° More memories of when they were together, again show him looking lost and confused.

° He could be standing on the bridge with everyone rushing past him and he stands out in the middle of everyone, to emphasise his loneliness. Flashbacks to earlier on in the video when she found out about the affair.

° Again he tries to go and win her back.

What have I done it's too late for that
What have I become truth is nothing yet
A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I'll do anything you ask...this time

° While he is on the bridge, he sees her with another man. She has moved on and he has lost her for good. Show his heartbreak.
