Our video will begin a fade in to a tracking shot from behind the main character as he walks into a church. We will then have the title and band name come up on screen, possibly with a director credit as well. The video will then follow the character as he aimlessly walks around town, lip-synching along to the song. There will be various locations, such as on top of a building looking over the town, in a forest-y walk, in a field and so on. The video will keep coming back to the church where the main character will be singing, and at various points in the video we will see the lead character consuming drugs and/or alcohol.
This is all to illustrate the narrative that we are following a character who is mentally unstable, and they've come to a point where they are incredibly depressed and just feel as though they have no purpose in life. This is why they're essentially a junkie. Because of this, he goes to church in the hopes that the presence of God will make him feel better. The video will end ambiguously with the character walking out of the church, not revealing whether he has found relief or not.
