Lyrics
Rippin' my heart was so easy
so easy
Launch your assault now
take it easy

Raise your weapon
Raise your weapon
One word and it's over

Rippin' through like a missile
Rippin' through my heart
Rob me of this love

Raise your weapon
Raise your weapon
and it's over

Raise your weapon
You won't feel a thing

(you won't feel a thing..
...for your war)

Droppin' your bombs now
on all we built
How does it feel now
to watch it burn, burn, burn?

Raise your weapon
Raise your weapon
Raise your weapon
Raise your weapon

Wow, this is gorgeous work! I love it.

[caramarie]

Such great musicality and movement! This is fab.

[laurashapiro]

That was beautiful! Love the continuous motion, the coherent narrative, the whole style of the thing. I'm not a gamer but I would watch vids like this over and over again.

[franzeska]

Oh my god, the 'For' credit at the end was so cool.

[crocodile]

This is a wonderful vid, with a great song choice. Super beautiful, I just loved it!

[lithiumdoll]

Absolutely beautiful! The sense of movement and timing is fantastic.

[jetpack_monkey]

I'm in complete awe of what you've done here. Working with video game footage seems hard enough, but you used mostly gameplay stuff from a first-person game. And it... oh the way it moves. So so good.

[frayadjacent]

Very cool vid. I love your use of gameplay footage, and awesome credits!

[fan_eunice]

This is SO FREAKING COOL.

[livrelibre]

Oh wow, this was completely amazing! The gameplay footage and how well you used it is so impressive.

[par_avion]

Nice! Really like the first "raise our weapon -- and it's over", the running sequence and "burn, burn, burn".

[bingeling]

Wow, this was so so perfect! The timing, the movement, that ending especially. Seriously brilliant job. ♥

The section 1:25 to 1:40 was just brilliant, the tempo of the action and the music perfectly matched, down to the sustain across the gap. There were a lot of moments like that in the vid, the music was used so well, very cool. And the credits, woah!
