Lyrics

Why we can't be
Or see who cuts us under
Like a boor falling a tree
You're the thunder
Going under
Over me

Don't forget to pray
To keep it away
Away from every day
Where you wonder

Why we can't be
Or see who cuts us under
Like a boor falling a tree
You're the thunder
Going under
Over me

Don't forget to pray
To keep it away
Away from every day
Where you wonder

Notes

I approached this vid sort of like a dream, which is fitting considering the sleeping curse. I used a lot of soft movements and the fire/forest contrast to that effect. I used a single clip from Maleficient (the spinning wheel), as well as smoke footage from here.

Making this vid was challenging because when you put them together, Mulan and Aurora actually have very little screen time, and even less screen time together where they're not standing in the background as Snow or Emma speak, etc. The style I was aiming for made it even more challenging, so I decided to make references to repeated visual (Mulan's clock as time counting down for them, holding her heart in her hand, etc).

I debated keeping the reversed audio at the end, then decided to keep it and use it as Mulan reflecting on her relationship with Aurora, and how she wishes she could go back and be the one that wakes her up.
