Content Overview

The video follows a mysterious narrative centered around the lead singer of AWOLNATION (Aaron Bruno).

Opening Scene: It begins outside a large house at night, where the protagonist is seen frantically running into the building.

Tension and Paranoia: Once inside, he appears paranoid, closing blinds, looking out

the windows, and hiding under furniture. He searches the house and secures a microcassette recorder. He sings into the device while exploring dark corridors filled with strange decorations, photos, and symbols.

Supernatural Themes: As the song builds, unexplainable forces seem to take hold. Objects fly around rooms, a mysterious green light guides him through the house, and he is eventually shown being pulled or levitated into the air outside.

Climax and Ending: He tries to hold on to structures inside the house but i

s eventually drawn outside and pulled upwards towards a bright, blinding light in the sky. The final shots focus on the microcassette recorder labeled "Awol's" left behind on the ground.
