PLEASE READ – (Iyrics below) –This great song has long been on my wanna list – for years. :) Another vid strongly based on the idea of the Hidden Plot (and my stories of The Prelude and The Quest, etc) – different lines told in both POVs (E & C). loads of symbolism – here’s some: the blue-tinged, softer focused clips represent when all is well between them, the love they share, the music they are, etc…. The black/white with hint of red are when things are not going well or as they wanted, and conflicts arise between them, so they feel they are dead inside/in despair…the regular color/ sharper detail is the reality of what is taking place. “There is nothing left of you” – shows the 2 sides of Erik – the gentler Angel side and when the darkness is taking over him…the ring of crystals symbolizes love and protection (like a talisman) and what Erik needs to confront the darkness/leave it, and the last clip shows the 2 portrayals of the same angel on the chapel wall - one with short dark hair symbolizing Erik, one with long brown hair symbolizing Christine. (I flipped one of them for artistic purposes.) This clip is meant to take place AFTER the last goodbye in song, showing them reunited. :)
Lyrics to “Anthem of the Angels” (performed by Breaking Benjamin)
White walls surround us,
No light will touch your face again
Rain taps the window
As we sleep among the dead
CHORUS
Days go on forever,
But I have not left your side
We can chase the dark together,
If you go then so will I
There is nothing left of you,
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
Cold light above us,
Hope fills the heart and fades away
Skin white as winter,
As the sky returns to gray
CHORUS
I keep holding onto you,
But I can't bring you back to life
Sing the anthem of the angels,
And say the last goodbye
You're dead alive
You're dead alive
You're dead alive
You're dead alive
There is nothing left of you,
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels,
And say the last goodbye
I keep holding onto you,
But I can't bring you back to life
Sing the anthem of the angels,
And say the last goodbye
Sing the anthem of the angels,
And say the last goodbye
Sing the anthem of the angels…
