PotO: Chasing Us All Underground

Five days of intense work and here's the result! *LYRICS BELOW*

This character-study video tries to figure out Erik's motives and why he does what he does. "This hurricane's chasing us all underground" refers to how Erik's actions haunt and affect everyone else around him. I may have used too many white flashes in this music video, sorry if that gets annoying after a while. The pacing is slow at times, but stick with me, after around 1:00 it gets really good.


"Hurricane" by 30 Seconds to Mars ft. Kanye West
No matter how many times that you told me
You wanted to leave
No matter how many breaths that you took,
You still couldn't breathe
No matter how many nights
That you lie wide awake
To the sound of the poison rain

Where did you go? (3x)

Tell me, would you kill to save a (your?) life?
Tell me, would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash
Burn, let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us all underground

No matter how many deaths that I die
I will never forget
No matter how many lives I live
I will never regret
There's a fire inside of this heart
In a riot about to explode into flames

Where is your God? (3x)

Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to torture for my sins?

Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to live a lie?

Tell me, would you kill to save a (your?) life?
Tell me, would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash
Burn, let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us all underground

You say you wrong, you wrong,
I'm right, I'm right, you're wrong, we fight
Ok, I'm running from the light,
Running from the day tonight, oh
The quiet silence defines our misery
The riot inside keeps trying to visit me
No matter how we try, it's too much history
Too many bad notes playing in our symphony
So let it breathe, let it fly, let it go
Let it fall, let it crash, burn slow
And then you call upon God...
You call upon God...

Tell me, would you kill to save a (your?) life?
Tell me, would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash
Burn, let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us all underground

This hurricane...(3x)

Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to torture for my sins?

Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to live a lie?...

Running away from the night...
running away from the light...
Running away to save your life...

I haven't watched many PotO videos since YouTube started taking everybody's videos down. I'm glad I watched this one. That was an excellent song choice and you really expressed the feeling of the Phantom's story.  Faved it!
