One of the things that I noticed whilst analysing the lyrics is that it has negative language throughout. I have highlighted some of the words that I believe to be negative. An example of this is the word crazy, which is not typically perceived to be a positive emotion. This word is used in the first verse of the song, therefore the audience are immediately made aware of the negative mood that the song is going to follow through with.
As well as this, as I have mentioned before I interpreted that the song is about the emotions you feel after a breakup. This was first established in the third verse when the word consume is used. This suggests to me that the negative thoughts you have often take over your reality for a short period of time.
Following on from this, one of the verses also contains "faded pictures". I interpreted this as someone looking back on the relationship that they used to have with someone else and this influenced the narrative idea that we came up with.
Next, as you can see I have highlighted "thought will be altered" as I thought this suggested how the presence of love can alter your normal thoughts and you can become blinded by the person you think someone is.
Overall after looking at these lyrics I found that the overall tone of the song is very negative. Therefore when I am presenting the narrative I need to make sure that this is clearly illustrated to the audience through body movements and mise en scene. For example I am planning on dressing my actress in black clothing to portray this.
In conclusion, I thought looking at these lyrics without the real video in front of me was very helpful as it meant I could not be influenced by the true meaning of the lyrics and came up with my own unique narrative. I thought that this task was very influential on my idea.
