This song is basically about being high. It shows maybe what the guys see when they smoke as according to the lead singer it (drugs) "keep him sane" while touring and such.
These are the 9 frames I chose to analyse from the video.
8 sec: This shot starts the story off with the helpless girl possibly passed out from drugs and is in a world of her own. The shot is very low angled and you can not really see anything of the girl other than her legs. The surrounding is very dismal and blue.
20 sec: This is where the performance of the band is really kicked in.
1 min 15: Here you see from the perspective of the girl being shaken by Mitch to wake up and being slapped in the face a little.
1 min 40: This cut shows you more of the perspective of Mitch trying to wake the girl up and you see it from a different angle instead of hers.
2 min 01: This is a very trippy scene that almost looks animated a bit. The whole screen is red and there are a lot of black movements around Mitch as he is screaming the words.
2 min 09: This is a close up look of Mitch's eyes that maybe reveal a psychotic person or suggesting that Mitch is trying to hypnotise the girl as she wakes up.
2 min 21: This scene shows the girl awake and she looks happy and normal, this cut only lasts a second though before you go back into her sleep state with the band preforming and Mitch yelling at her.
3 min 28: This is another close up of Mitch screaming but the colours in the video have become more normal as the video is winding down.
3 min 31: This is now a close up of the girls face sort of like Mitch's from before where he had the "hypnotic" eyes. Here from the eyes you can sort of see a scared person that has just woken up from this crazy video.
