Top Comments of this video!! :3
Has anyone else noticed in the beginning, only a single wolf was chasing the guy on the motorcycle, but when we see him again later, a lot more are chasing him. And then, at the end, there's a whole horde behind them. Almost like it's saying that running from your problems instead of facing them only creates new problems and makes things worse in the long run.

Ik everyone under the sun has talked about the symbolism of addiction with each character but I really enjoy how each character reacts to the wolf and the details you can derive from their reactions.
how the glasses guy who a lot of people think he's an alcoholic but I don't think people ever really say that the coin he has is likely a sobriety chip, the way he examines it and hands it away after getting that drink makes it feel very much like it is him falling back into the addiction rather than it being a constant, and his reaction to the wolf reflects that as he runs out of fear of his addiction returning.
the girl initially reacts with some fight, but after seeing it has no effect resorts to running, which could give the idea that she's tried to quit before and failed, ultimately choosing to run from the problem rather than stand ground and face it.
even though we don't really see the reaction of the biker (probably because with his addiction theorized to be thrill seeking and speeding it's likely the wolf just showed up while he was riding and he saw it) what you can see is how determined to outrun the problem and when finally has to confront the wolves he is visibly teared up over it but ultimately chooses to stand his ground.
just love the personality of each character shining through and giving a insight as to not only their addictions but their willingness to overcome them

See, i half-disagree with the people saying that the girl breaking her skateboard over the wolf is a symbol of her fighting back. I see it more as a symbol of addiction taking everything, even what one loves to do. In her desperate swing, fueled by the fear that the wolf was there, she destroyed a healthy way to destress in outdoor activity and also a passion of hers. Skating seems very important to her, and the destruction of the skateboard could mean loss as much as it means fighting.

LYRIC
Each and every day hiding from the sunshine
Wandering in the shade, not too old, not too young
Every night again dancing with the moonlight
Somewhere far away, I can hear your call
I'm out of my head, of my heart and my mind
'Cause you can run, but you can't hide, I'm gonna make you mine
Out of my head, of my heart and my mind
'Cause I can feel how your flesh now is crying out for more
Ain't no fairytale what I see in your eyes
Awaiting your mistake, not too close, not too far
Sneaking in the pain, every truth becomes lie
I won't trust myself once I hear your call
I'm out of my head, of my heart and my mind
'Cause you can run, but you can't hide, I'm gonna make you mine
Out of my head, of my heart and my mind
'Cause I can feel how your flesh now is crying out for more
I'm out of my head, of my heart and my mind
Out of my head, of my heart and my mind
I'm out of my head, of my heart and my mind
'Cause you can run, but you can't hide, I'm gonna make you mine
Out of my head, of my heart and my mind
'Cause I can feel how your flesh now is crying out for more

I wanna add that when ever the wolves are in darkness they transform and become more monsterlike i think this represents that if you just leave your problems alone in the dark they won't get better only worse also the guy at the beginning since he keeps only running away they multiply also showing you can't run also notice how the wolf that attacks him in the front is the original wolf and he had to deal with it

The original source of inspiration and meaning behind the song and video is irrelevant: we can only interpret it from our own point of view. In my opinion, it's about facing your demons and whatever is chasing you. Nobody walks through this life without suffering the slings and arrows that test our resolve as human beings.
