Lyrics
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything

Oh, the world is rough
It's just like hoping it will swallow you right up
And know that you're awake
The clock is ticking and it won't stop, it don't stop

Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything

I am ready for the last fight, the last fight
The last fight, the last fight
The last fight, the last fight

I am not shaking in my shoes
I am not waving in the wind
(Tick tock, tick tock)
I am not waving in the wind

Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything

Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything
Time will destroy everything

Eee, thank you, Festividder! So thrilled to have a vid for this movie! This brought so many of my Raige family feelings to the surface, I love it. <3

The shit-gets-real drop at half a minute is such a great match-up, and the use of flashbacks throughout is really effective. The section between about 3:00 and 3:40 is my favourite: the "I am not shaking in my shoes", the emotional resonance of the intercut flashbacks, and omg the giant bird -- those bird scenes were some of my favourite parts of the movie (I seriously cried in the theatre when it died).

Thank you again! \o/

I'm so glad you like it! I had a really great time vidding it, and fell in love with the Raige family too :) OOOOH, the giant bird feels! I have them too.

wow, what the hell is this movie and why didn't i see it? everyone said it was so bad in theaters, but omg, it's so PRETTY, auuuugh SO PRETTY, creepy animal things and great editing!

this vid has one of the best uses of a Garbage song that i've seen in years, it really set the tone and atmosphere of the trauma that they were and are going through.

I'm intrigued by the movie now (which I haven't seen) and a little confused and grossed out too, but that's okay.

Don't know the movie, but I like how eerie and hypnotic and epic this is. Love the slow beginning, setting the scenery, and then the literal drop in 0:32.

Very interesting. I didn't know anything about the source, so it was all a surprise for me.
