Length: 02:00

You'll never see the courage I know
Its colors' richness won't appear within your view
I'll never glow - the way that you glow
Your presence dominates the judgements made on you

But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights
I understand what I am still too proud to mention - to you

You'll say you understand, but You don't understand
You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye
But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie

Very nicely done. Fiona Apple's voice is perfect for this.

Oh, man, HANNA. I liked the choice to go with the slow song rather than the wham bam action girl. She has so much emotional growing to do in the film and you got that so well given such a short space of time.

Mesmerizing. I think this vid really captures the melancholy mood of Hanna's coming of age. Love.

Oh, my heart. Great song choice, wonderful job with an often overlooked film.
