The Script - Walk Away

I don't know why she's with me
I only brought her trouble since the day she met me
If I was her, by now I would have left me
I would have walked away
But now I've broken away
Somehow instead she forgave me
She said a woman's got to do what she's got to do
Even if it means she denied herself the truth
Cause when you're in too deep you wake up when it's too late,
You've fallen in love in the worst way
And if you don't go now then you'll stay
Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breathe
Cause if you're looking for heaven, baby it sure as hell ain't me

This verse will involve shots that start off the narrative and will most likley include a girl and boy whose actions will loosley ralate to the lyrics which will involve the pratagonist male controlling the girl. likley locations for this scene will be in the kitchen/living room of a house. Furthermore it will cut to and from the lead singer most likley performing in the drama studio of our school. We plan to have the performance shots in black and white with a black backgroud, this would create the effect that the band are performing in a location that had no distinctive features.      

So walk away
[Walk away]
Walk away, oh
Save yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too late
So walk away
[Walk away]
Walk away, oh
Save yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too late
But still she stays

This will consist of perfomance shots which will again be set in the drama studio. These performance shots will be cut between CU's of the lead singert and the other band members who are playign their instruments. During the chorus there will be cuts back to the narrative so the feeling that the video is telling a story is not lost.  

She's standing in the heart of darkness
Saying I know you got a soul even though you're heartless
How could any woman in their right mind be so blind,
To find something this safe
Instead of walking with me she should have walked away

She finds color in the darkest places
She finds beauty in the saddest of faces
For such a groovy and headstrong city girl
Could've had the world but she's fallen in love in the worst way
And if you don't go now then you'll stay
Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breathe
Cause if you're looking for heaven, baby it sure as hell ain't me

These two verses will see the boy and girl meet one another again and make up, this roughly follows the narrative described in the lyrics. These scences are likley to take place in an outdoors location (either rural or urban) and the girl will have dressed up really nice, whereas the man will look like hes has made less of an effort. These verses will also have performance shots edited into them. 

So walk away
[Walk away]
Walk away, oh
Save yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too late
So walk away
[Walk away]
Walk away, oh
Save yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too late
But still she stays
[Oh, yeah]
But still she stays
[Oh, yeah]

I don't know why she's with me
I only brought her trouble since the day she met me
If I was her, by now I would have left me
I would have walked away

But you've fallen in love in the worst way
And if you don't go now then you'll stay
Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breathe
Cause if you're looking for heaven, baby it sure as hell ain't me

So walk away
[Walk away]
Walk away, oh
Save yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too late
So walk away
[Walk away]
Walk away, oh
Save yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too late
But still she stays

[Yeah]
But still she stays, eh
I'm saying walk away
Yeah
I'm saying walk away
[Save yourself from the heartache, go now before it's too late]
But still she stays
Still she stays
Yeah, she stays
She stays
