Lyrics
first the earth was flat
but it fattened up when we didn't fall off
now we spin laps 'round the sun

all the gods lost 2-1
and holes to heaven pointed out to us
from light-years away

we're surrounded by a billion galaxies

things are not always
things are not always
how they seem

will you be ready?
will you be ready?

the interim of life
has got you tip-toed and pinning all your hopes
on the top-dog of dreams

you're not alone in this
but pollyfilia way looks strong in the weakness
of the gaps

things are not always
things are not always
how they seem

they don't turn out always
don't quite turn out always
how we think

will we be ready?
will we be ready?

I'm dying to know
what's in your head
I'm dying to know
how we all got in there

I'm dying to know
to help make some sense of it all
I'm dying to know

tell me, is it my fault?
and I care about you darling

and I care about you
'cause I care about you more than anyone else

things are not always
things are not always
how they seem

they don't turn out always
don't quite turn out always
how we think

will we be ready?

I'm missing a ton of context since I've never seen the source, but this is a GORGEOUS and beautifully edited vid. I want to see this movie now!

[affablyevil]

Thank you very much! I absolutely undoubtedly recommend it: it's like the Bourne Identity plus dark fairy tales starring a queer teenage girl. Even so, I'm delighted to hear that even without having seen the movie you were able to enjoy the vid!

Wow. This was really amazing. I'm embarrassed to say that I've also not seen the film (I've been meaning to for ages as everyone I've spoken to recommends it - I really need to make the time to watch it!). But even so, this vid really sucked me in and kept my attention through absolutely brilliant editing and great storytelling. Awesome job.

[affablyevil]

Oh wonderful! Vids can be so source-referential that it's a relief that this vid is still somewhat accessible to people who haven't seen it! Of course I recommend the film, but I'm really pleased that you enjoyed it even without the context and that it was able to sustain your interest. :)

I haven't seen the movie either, but this is a stunnning vid regardless. I love the flow and the rhythm of this.

[affablyevil]

Thank you very much!

Oh wow you did an amazing job with this. Will definitely be back for a dl.

[affablyevil]

Thank you! I wasn't planning on uploading a direct dl, but if you click the Vimeo link one of the options underneath should give you download. :)

Layered and unsettlingly fascinating - well done.

I'm delighted to hear it! Thank you very much.

Whoa, fascinating vid! I have never heard of this movie, so I was just along for the ride. That smile on the first "...how they seem" gave me anticipatory shivers. I'm intrigued by the relationship the redheaded director(?) with the shoes has to the girl. Did she create her? The spinning and disorientation at 1:57-2:02 is great. There's that brief moment of human connection and sweetness, and then the screaming that's silent with shock and the drums start. I love at 3:27 how everything starts spiraling in like DNA, round like blood cells, the redheaded woman grinning wolfishly, the running and evolution theme (mammoths??)... So cool. I really need to see this movie.
