    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Unrest lies beneath the surface of every breath...
    shallow breaths with depth no light can breach
    without the lights
    I cease to breathe
    drowning in a sea of air

      pacman honestly, this video has more than sparked my interest because with most music, I like it and listen. With this, I want to watch the story. I NEED to. It's as if I can't stand it if I don't get the interpretation. I appreciate you helping out with this project and I LOVE the choreography. This has to be one of my favorite things of all time

      I’m truly happy for you. It’s a hard decision and even harder to actually do, and I’m glad you had the strength to do it. Never go back, a lot of times they will make promises that they will be better and change their ways, but it will never happen. Stay strong, and find yourself again. Know your worth 💗

    I have chills. I think I got the message: she was pure (white) and then he took control of her, raped her, made her his, and now shes dark (black)? And in the end when she was back in the forest she could no longer be pure because she had already been touched (memories still haunt her) and she longs to be what she used to be.

    @xpressyourself4340 Před 7 lety +5

    Wow..very moving & powerful. I graduated from art school with a slight resentment towards it, and this video made me remember why I went it the first place. Creating a voice for thousands of people, who've lost their voice, is a beautiful thing that's greatly appreciated.

    This is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen. Ive been many places where "true art" was shown. France, Italy, SPain, England, here in America... But nothing can compare to the strength, beauty, and deep meaning of this masterpiece. Art should stand for something, make you feel something, make the world a better place, and this video... this perfect dance between two people... Is true art, inspiring and courageous. Thank you dancers, choreographers, and everyone else involved for helping change my world today. God bless

    Someone shared this link to me about 2 days ago. I haven't stopped watching it. Everything about it was beautiful. It was powerful, sorrowful, beautiful, awful, lovely, all in one moment. I've never seen and felt anything so magnificent in my entire life.

  • @Kaylamypy
    @Kaylamypy Před 7 lety +5

    Its been 3 years since I was with my abusive ex fiance. He was in jail for 9 months and during that time my emotional and mental well being depleted so badly that I went to psychiatric care as well as a 3 month rehab stint that curbed some of my dependency issues, but not the drinking. I saw this video on Facebook one day, and immediately burst into tears. I'm not an emotional person. After finding this video I set the second chorus of this song as my ringtone specifically for when my ex fiance was calling me.
    I have PTSD related to my ex, now. I cant go to certain places without feeling physically ill. I cant hear certain sounds without being taken out of the present and going somewhere really, very dark. It doesnt happen often, but when it does, its gut wrenching. So I look up this song sometimes when I can stand it. And whenever I get to that point in the song where the synth starts screaming in the background as the tension in the videos choreography builds (the same part of the song that was my ringtone for so long) a part of me always crumbles a little bit more inside. But it's so damn beautiful that I cant help but come back again. Thank you guys. I cant tell you how much this song and video quite literally saved my life back during that time. I think of it often.

    This is exactly that: breathtaking. One of your BEST! I feel you managed to tell the story throughout the whole video and made it transparent in all the best ways. You embodied the song entirely and to almost perfection. I'm not even gonna get into that choreography 'cause that was plain insane. This REALLY came across. You are pure art and everything you taint turns into a masterpiece.

And the lady in this performance is an amazing mix between traditionally trained and contemporary/hip hop. You dont see that too often. All of those factors combined with a great song, great editing, and a dark-deep meaning... man, this is the best one. (Subway dance was my favorite before this). Thank you for not being afraid to put yourself out there. You inspire alot of people. Thanks Phil
