Scripts
Description of visuals
The music video opens up with a
shot of an alarm clock/phone
alarm. A hand reaches towards
the alarm and just as the finger
touches the snooze button you
see a match cut of the hand
furiously tapping a printer, the
printer isn’t working causing
molly (main character) to kick
the printer, this is shown with
a wide angle shot of her kicking
it, then you see her walk off
screen. It then cuts to molly
sitting at her desk, a pile of
work is piled onto her desk and
just as the files hit the desk
the music starts with an intro
matching the beat of the music.
After a small section of molly
working we see her turn her
chair towards the window and
look out into the distance
almost wishing that she could
just escape. It then match cuts
to her sitting looking out of
her house windows. Then we get a
bird’s eye view of her food
which is just a microwave meal.
Then it match cuts again to the
music of a birds eye view of her
desk.
She continues to work, typing
and again more work is piled up
on her by a unknown figure. It
then cuts to her looking at the
clock almost as to wondering
when this life will end. This
then also match cuts to molly’s
microwave clock and it slowly
zooms out
Lyrics
I'll be your train wreck
Now watch me derail
Just look around
I'm an avalanche ready to
Crumble, a burning horse out of
control
A sky-rise that's tumbling down in
flames from
Heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven
[Chorus 1]
'cause you, yeah, you
You're only gonna bring me down
And I know you, yeah, you
You're only gonna make my plans
derail
(Derail)
[Verse 2]
I'm your volcano now watch me
explode
Yeah, take a ride
I'm an accident waiting to
Happen, how tribes said, 'look
after yourself'
Guess I'll try I promise, but
trying is wasted
Upon me, upon me, upon me, upon me
Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
[Chorus 2]
'cause you, yeah, you
You're only gonna bring me down
And I know you, yeah, you
You're only gonna make my plans
derail
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
You, yeah, you
Only gonna bring me down

We see a small montage of molly And I know you, yeah, you

working going home and then
working again. This follows her
making progress and now we see
her getting a letter that tells
her that she has cancer and that
they don’t know how long she has
to live
She then starts walking home
from work via an alleyway and
when she least expects it her
heart starts to hurt she
collapses to the floor and dies,
You're only gonna make my plans
derail
You, yeah, you
You're only gonna bring me down
And I know you, yeah, you
You're only gonna make my plans
derail
(Derail)

Then in the last scene you see

molly walking towards a door
that is lit from behind and she
walks into it
