Lyrics of my Song

This is Smith - The Fool
Trouble in paradise
Trouble comes all the time
Trouble keeps me up at night
Trouble I'm on your side
Cos without you I'd be fine
But lonelier for the ride
Without you I'd be fine
But lonelier for the ride
Im on your side

Trouble it finds you too
Trouble its on your head
For getting me out of bed

Trouble I cant be free
I need trouble and you need me
Trouble I cant be free
I need trouble and you need me
I need you please

When the good things are done 
When the wars are done I'll be hiding in them 
The smiling faces see the world 
Oh the fool    x4


Theres a man you never knew
Falling from the highest bridge
No trapeze breaking at the knees
Find solace in falling free

Cos the greatest company you see
Hand in hand the trouble and me
The greatest company you see
Hand in hand the trouble and me
Hand in hand the trouble and me

Now the good things are gone 
And wee've all begun 
To a colour in us



The smiling faces see the world 



Oh the fool    x4


The way I interpreted the lyrics of y chosen song was simple. I consider the song's story to be about a young man that has recently lost a lover. He is a fool for letting her go and he is beginning to realize this, he is "The Fool".  At one point in the song he contemplates suicide "Falling from the highest bridge... Find solace in falling free". The way I want the song to come across in the video is of him trying to continue his life without his lover. The verses will have shots of the protagonist on his own as I just said and to show a loss of "life" this part of the video will be in monochrome. However at the chorus when he is remembering the good times it will be shot in colour, but she will be joining him in the activities. I also consider the song to be a progression of the man slowly coming to terms with his loss, and so the I want his emotionally journey to be portrayed as a long walk where he has time to look back.
