    Lyrics:
    I keep using my energy
    Pushing and shoving my way to please
    Almost there, almost there
    Feel like we've been getting nowhere
    Almost there, almost there
    Feel like we've been getting nowhere
    Almost there, almost there
    Well...
    Electronic world, supersonic girl
    We keep holding onto nothing
    We keep typing, we're not talking
    We lose endlessly, world won't get by me
    I feel like I'm onto something
    We keep moving, we're not there yet

    One of the best music videos of all time and chilling how much it fits today (late 2020). Gave me chills back in 2011, but now...wow. Sorry if I sound a bit too much BTEC Media Studies, but have you noticed: the empty trains, plague (flies) attacking the older lady, the young woman coughing, the people looking out of their windows - afraid to go out, the crime, no community, the CCTV cameras, the poverty (man with water in his mug, homeless man), the coke can (brands and companies crashing), the woman under work strain, the financial crisis. The lyrics - pleading the Lord to show him something. CHILLSSS.

    The 4 horsemen (riders) of Apocalypse-white (pestilence), red (war), black (famine) and pale (death). Book of revelation 6:1-8. And the lightning in the end might be the anti-christ falling from heaven. Luke 10:18

    • @josephmokobake3882
      @josephmokobake3882 Před 7 lety

      White= righteous conquest actually Amongst all these bad things, Jesus would still ride out in conquest. Red = war. Black = Stark famine, Pale = death and pestilence.

    • @yanapray1444
      @yanapray1444 Před 7 lety +1

      The white stands for the anti-christ-wolf in a sheep clothing sort of speak. CHRIST returns after the apocalypse and right before the wrath. The apocalypse is a very high repentance time-faith will be crucial and no return will seize the walk by faith and not by sight 'mode'. JESUS bless :))

    • @josephmokobake3882
      @josephmokobake3882 Před 7 lety

      yanapray The book says the rider was given a crown, which designates a kingly position. The other riders aren't given anything of the sort. And white robes are usually associated with righteousness. Read Revelations 19.

    • @yanapray1444

    Almost there, almost there
    Feel like we've been getting nowhere
    Mmmmm, lord...
    Yeah...
    I think I'm gonna get there, gonna get there
    Gonna get there, there
    Don't know when, don't know how
    Push me further, hold me down, down
    Down...
    Almost there, almost there
    Feel like we've been getting nowhere
    I keep using my energy
    Pushing and shoving my way to please
    Almost there, almost there
    Feel like we've been getting nowhere
    Almost there, almost there
    Feel like we've been getting nowhere
    Almost there, almost there
    Feel like we've been getting nowhere

    Without Christ, we get nowhere. Read the book of Revelation and this video will make perfect sense. It's not just about a lack of love or a lack of money. It's a spiritual battle that effects our minds/thoughts and emotions. This video is a sign of the last days.

    *With each generation comes new technology and blurred lines of what is right and wrong. Feels like we are getting nowhere and we are not, we never will. But we are almost there, the time is just about here.*
