For the second year of my Media Studies course, we were asked to pick a song and make a music video for it. This is mine, for Jack Off Jill's song "When I Am Queen". These are some screenshots for your viewing pleasure, hah.

Many thanks to my friend Debs, who did an incredible job at acting for me! Also, thanks to Stpeh who did all the make-up. :) For a more detailed account of the day and behind-the-scene's stuff, check out Deb's site Animus Singularis.

 

When I Am Queen by Jack Off Jill

When I am queen I will insist with perfect scars upon my wrists
That everything you once held dear is taken away from you.

When I am queen sweet girl scout’s face and not a one will fall from grace
If all their hearts I could replace, but until then I'll have to -

Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown

When I am queen on royal throne made out of parts of broken bones
Of all the devils I have known that suck the angels dry

When I am queen I'll have my way I'll make it drowning dolly day
And all the tears that we have cried will suck back in our eyes.

Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown

Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown

Hush baby hush baby
Hush baby go to sleep
Hush baby hush baby
Hush baby I'll make it be.

When I am queen I will not wait my body type will still be great
I will not leave it up to fate because I hate you too.

When I am queen they all will see the patron saint of self-injury
The glitter sores will heal themselves, I'll play the part of someone else.

Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown

Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown drown drown myself
Drown
