Analysis of my Songs Lyrics

Song Lyrics:                                                                      Analysis: 
Did you practise those faces in the mirror                           She's fake, acts differently to the way              
Lying to yourself when you called me dear                        she used to. 
Your not the same as yesterday
Won't you please come out to play

Lighting candles in the dark,                                              Light could be hope but there is non 
means nothing its got no spark without you                       without her.

Over and over and over again,                                           She constantly reinforces that she  
call me a friend                                                                   doesn't really love him, its all pretend. 
Over and over and over again,
we just pretend

Well I don't want this anymore                                          He just wants to fix things, go back to  
I just want my everything                                                   before.

Always and always and always,                                        He can't ever stop loving her. He doesn't
I love you                                                                           want to.
Always and always and always,
I'll hold you till the end

Don't call me sweetheart anymore                                     Contradicting-conflicting feelings. 
I miss your head around the door
Never knew just what you meant
There are letters I never sent

Polaroids in the rain                                                          He can't have fun without her. 
No fun, their not the same without you

I saw you on the streets the other day
He was holding your hand that special way                     She's moved on and he hasn't. Jealous.
The way I used to years ago
I don't know why you can't let him go

Standing in the rain,                                                         Watching her now she's moved on was 
I knew life would never be the same                               hard realisation that he won't get her back 
Standing in the rain,                                                         now.
I knew life would never be the same
Standing in the rain,
I knew life would never be the same

Life will never be the same                                             He will struggle to get over her. 
My life will never be the same
My life will never be the same without you

Over and over and over again,
call me a friend
Over and over and over again,
we just pretend

Well I don't want this anymore
I just want my everything

Always and always and always,
I love you
Always and always and always,
I'll hold you till the end.


Ideas:
I would like to represent the song lyrics in my music video by using a narrative with elements of performance. I would like the guitar being played in the video as this song would fit into the singer/songwriter genre so some focus on instruments would help the music video fit into the genre. For the narrative part of the video I think having two people to act out a relationship would work best. I quite like the idea of doing a montage of videos of an old relationship similar to the way this music video does it.


My music video is going to have an independent style as the song I am using doesn't suit big mainstream/commercial videos like those used in the pop genre. The music video could either portray a sad tone to represent the sad lyrics or it could be made a bit more cheerful by looking back on the relationship however, this would still probably have a sad undertone because he wants to go back to the way it was. I don't think I will make the editing very fast paced because it wouldn't suit the song which is quite slow.
