feminine subject- anal/schizoid



I think the video is interesting in the contrast between the 'glamourous' parts when Grimes is made up and the informal parts where she looks like she is being brave just to be in public and around others. Sometimes it looks like she could just disappear into her jacket (implode or turn into a pile of ashes like a vampire) and it would seem normal. In the glamourous bits she looks less like a ghost (her being at a motorcycle event with a bunch of men around is a remarkable contrast) but she has to be relatively still like a mannequin to achieve the effect.



Another walk about, after dark
It's my point of view
If someone could break your neck
Coming up behind you always coming and you'd never have a clue

And now I'm left behind, all the time
I will wait forever, always looking straight
Thinking, counting, all the hours you wait

See you on a dark night
(oooooooo aaaaaaaaa)
See you on a dark night
(oooooooo aaaaaaaaa)
See you on a dark night
(oooooooo aaaaaaaaa)
See you on a dark night

And now another clue, I would ask
If you could help me out
It's hard to understand
Cause when you're really by yourself
it's hard to find someone to hold your hand

And now it's gonna be, tough on me
But I will wait forever
I need someone else to look into my eyes and tell me
Girl you know you gotta watch your health

To look into my eyes and tell me
La la la la la
To look into my eyes and tell me
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la

I see you on a dark night
I see you on a dark night
(oooooooo aaaaaaaaa)
I see you on a dark night
(oooooooo aaaaaaaaa)
I see you on a dark night
(oooooooo aaaaaaaaa)
