• Comments: This is my second video. I chose the song Happy Child by Tweaker, as I feel that the lyrics and music fit Trigun very well. Overall, I am very pleased with the results.
  
  In this video, I attempted to tell a story. Basically, the video is about what was going on inside Vash\'s head as he was on his way to confront Knives. As he walks through the desert, he reflects on his past, and the events that brought him where he is right now. Finally in the last verse of the song he reaches Knives, and the rest of the video unfolds.
  
  I am very proud of this video, and I would really appreciate any feedback you can offer. Enjoy!
  
  
  
  A few side notes: while some scenes are very similar, I didnt use any scene twice. I also feel that the lyrics are fairly important to the video, so here they are:
  
  Happy Child
  **************
  I imagine my hands are clean
  I am revitalized by things unseen
  I begin a dialogue with the road
  toothless, hopeful, about to explode...
  
  how could I have ever been so lucky
  to wake up looking in her face
  and see the flowers she put ‘round the room
  britening an otherwise crumbling place
  
  she told me that jesus loves me
  but I never knew who jesus was
  some kid somewhere fucked up
  well isn’t this what a savior does?
  
  don’t cry
  don’t feel
  don’t die
  because death is not real
  it’s good
  it’s yours
  and it should come when things have run their course
  
  I wanted her melted up inside me
  all the tears and the smiles shed for me
  she’d disappear to the world around me
  everything to be a powerful memory
  ...(so I could carry all that we’d been with me)
  
  so I brought her to the swamp she loved so well
  where I gently placed her in it
  I brought her soul to ease with kisses
  and I said to her as I’s about to begin it
  
  don’t cry
  don’t feel
  you won’t die
  because I don’t think death’s real
  it’s good
  it’s mine
  and it should be
  at your heels all of the time
  
  and she said:
  
  “and where’s the sky for me now? its good that she sings
  and who will take it down? the freedom it brings
  and drape it all around me her voice is my very head
  every cloud and cosmo for a gown?”
  
  I’m a good kid
  old style
  a happy child
  and I’m never going to have to do that again
  but if I want to, I can
  
  don’t cry
  don’t feel
  don’t die
  because death is not real
  it’s good
  it’s ours
  like the sun
  like the worms
  like the wind
  like the flowers...
