Julie is in a straitjacket, in a padded cell.                                             Waves & Birds Intro

Sitting in the corner, rocking back and forth.

 

                                                                                       Julie’s thoughts:  (Voice Over)

 

                                                                                                 Utterly and totally alone,

                                                                                                 Deep in depression,

                                                                                                 Sorrow and loss beyond

                                                                                                 comprehension 

                                                                                                 All hope for sanity f                                                                                                denied for so long.

 

Julie gets up and moves forwards to the middle  

of the room.

Lowers her head, then slowly lifts her head.

The light in the room turns blue                                                                

Waves behind her.                                                          

Julie stands up.

Flock of birds resting in a tree get scared                                                     Intro Swell

& all take off at once very fast

Julie on beach, looking up at seagulls flying.                                                Music Intro   

Flying from a bird’s point of view

Julie looks like she is getting a mug shot taken.                                               1st verse

She is standing in front of a dingy white wall.

She has very bright lights on her. She is pale with

her head down and tilted to one side.  She sings 

the first two lines of the song. As she sings the 

rest of the first verse, she slowly raises her head 

to face the camera.

 

EXT graveyard: (b & w, edgy,) Dressed in a                               Last line of 1st verse Lyric:  white flowing gown. She has her arms                                       Running circles in my head

outstretched  and is running in small circles                           all the loves I’ve left for dead

with tombstones in the foreground.                                      

The camera is slowed a bit and fabric

flows from her arms.

 

 

Jumping off cliff & flying from hang gliders                           Music swell leading into chorus

point of view

Flying from bird’s point of view.                                                                      Chorus

Julie opens a doorway and enters a hallway.                                                   2nd verse

There are two doors on each side.  She opens first

door and sees an outdoor scene with children

playing and having fun.  She opens second door and

sees her father playing her as a marionette.

She opens third door to see an outdoor scene where

she is tied to a stake in the middle of a circle of benches.

         At the head of the circle is a hooded man (could be her father)

         standing at an alter.

         Sitting at all the benches are every day looking people

         all laughing and smiling and not very concerned about

           the fact that she's tied up to the stake

  She closes the door, leans against the wall

and slides down on her butt dejected.  She looks up and sees

a bright light shining from under the forth door. She gets up 

and opens the door just in time to see a man playing a sax solo                               

with a bright light behind him.                                                                

 

Man plays solo.

Dave pays sax live

Marbles falling like rain.  People duck & cover                                                  2nd Verse

Julie back in the padded cell.

Shots of winter. Stark bare trees, cold, bleak.

Live Julie singing.          

An old man, beaten and weary in tattered clothes.

Flying. From bird’s point of view                                                                      Chorus  

Bird’s flying                                                                                                                                      

Back to Julie tied to the stake.  A  person comes to                                          Last verse  

light the fire under her.

Julie looks up as a bright light shines down on her.  The

people (including the one trying to light the fire) all

cower from the light & hide their faces.

to the sky, watching seagulls fly.
