Kind of interesting. The story in the video is based on Native American folklore about coyote. In one story, Coyote feels sorry for the man as he and his tribe are freezing to death. So coyote goes to three ancient hags who have fire but refuse to share it. Coyote sneaks in and steals the flame for the man. The hags chase him until he stumbles and the flames end up being swallowed by the trees. The hags try to convince the trees to give them back the fire but to know avail. Coyote being clever, teaches the man how to rub the sticks together to get the fire out, thus teaching the man how to gain and use fire.

My brother and I discussed this and came to the conclusion that this is a metaphor for death always trying to get you and bring you back where you belong. The "death" in this instance is the wisp that the coyote is forever chasing after, until the scene where it falls through the ice, everything after that is his spirit and that is why it always makes it 'seeminingly' out of the clutches of peril. And also why it finally reveals its true form as the Spirit of the Mountain

lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I'm out here sipping from the bottle of a Molotov cocktail
Iām setting fire to my lungs
Catch a kiss with a cyanide under my tongue
[Chorus]
And if it kill me, it'll kill me
So let it kill me but I'm never gonna live a lie, no
Let the willing go the willing
I got a taste for a life of dining alone
[Post-Chorus/Drop]
āCause I'm not here again
Here again, I'm not here
No, I'm not here again
Not here anymore
[Verse 2]
I'm out here loading a gun
This lovesick hungry wild coyote, run, run, run
You thought the money would save you, one in the chamber
Blood in the water, my love
[Chorus]
And if it kill me, it'll kill me
So let it kill me but I'm never gonna live a lie, no
Let the willing go the willing
Time to say goodbye, I'm dying alone
[Post-Chorus/Drop]
Because Iām not here
No, Iām not here
Because I'm not here
Iām not here
Because I'm notā
Anymore
[Outro]
'Cause I'm not here again
No, Iām not

the way this song is sung feels like it perfectly encapsulates the feeling of someone craving warmth of attention and the companionship of others while going through a downward spiral of coming to terms with their own loneliness.
