Lyric breakdown

Artist: The Script song: The Man Who Can’t Be Moved

00:00 - 00:09 intro When the intro is playing there could be establishing shots and pans of the location were Danial has a permanent home waiting for the girl he met there.

(1st Verse) 00:09 - 00:14 Going back to the corner where I first saw you 00:14 - 00:19 Gonna camp in my sleeping bag, I'm not gonna move00:19 - 00:24 Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my handIn this section it will open with a shot with Danial sat on the floor with a sleeping bag beside him then it will pan to a close up of a sleeping bag beside him. Then the camera will move on to Danial writing a description of the girl, on an old piece of cardboard. However I could film this writing each letter individually then speed it up to look like Danial wrote it quickly. Then the shot will cut to words on the cardboard to the right of him then Danial holding a single photo of him and Annie together.

00:24 - 00:28 Saying if you see this girl can you tell her where I am00:28 - 00:33 Some try to hand me money, they don't understand00:33 - 00:38 I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man00:38 - 00:43 I know it makes no sense, but what else can I do00:43 - 00:47 How can I move on when I've been in love with you

In this section people will pass Danial and he will shove the photo in their direction while singing the first line, frantically. Then one of the passersby hands him money chucks in his direction. Danial is not happy with this and throws the money back at them. He will then sit back down defeated and Danial continues to look at the photo. Then the camera will zoom in to the photo, and through the editing, the photo, is the photo took when them two spent time together.

(Chorus)

00:47 - 00:52 Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me00:52 - 00:57 And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be00:57 - 1:02 Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet1:02 - 1:06 And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street1:06 - 1:11 So I'm not moving1:11 - 1:16 I'm not moving

So the next shot will show Annie and Danial wearing the same clothes, in the same pose but then it will come to life. The shots in this section will show Danial and Annie doing happy couple activities. E.g. holding hands strolling along the beach, eating matching ice creams, sitting on the rocks talking, etc. Then Annie will give Danial something e.g. a shell from the beach then the next shot will show Danial waiting at the corner tightly holding the shell or something that Annie has give him, looking solemn clutching the item tightly.

1:16 - 1:27 instrumental

(2nd Verse) 1:27 - 1:31 Policeman says son you can't stay here1:31 - 1:36 I said there's someone I'm waiting for if it's a day, a month, a year1:36 - 1:41 Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows1:41 - 1:45 If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go A policeman then interrupts the shot and tries to move on Danial, I will use disjointed shots to show Danial struggles as he tries to resist the policeman. The policeman gives up and walks away. The next shot shows Danial singing the speed of the song, but the people walking past twice the speed to show the passage of time.

(Chorus) 1:45 - 1:50 Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me1:50 - 1:55 And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be

1:55 - 1:59 Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet1:59 - 2:04 and you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street

2:04 - 2:08 so I'm not moving2:08 - 2:13 I'm not moving2:13 - 2:18 I'm not moving2:18 - 2:22 I'm not moving

2:22 - 2:25 instrumental (3rd Verse) 2:25 - 2:27 people talk about the guy2:27 - 2:34 who's waiting on a girl, oh whoa2:34 - 2:37 there are no holes in his shoes2:37 - 2:43 but a big hole in his world2:43 - 2:48 Maybe I'll get famous as the man who can't be moved2:48 - 2:52 and maybe you won't mean to but you'll see me on the news2:52 - 2:56 and you'll come running to the corner2:56 - 2:59 'Cause you'll know it's just for you2:59 - 3:04 I'm the man who can't be moved3:04 - 3:07 I'm the man who can't be moved In this section the camera will be on Annie going about her day-to-day life. Then she will come downstairs and make herself a cup of tea, and notice Danial’s news story flashes up on the TV. She is shocked because she thought she lost him so drops the cup, the camera will do a multi-take on the cup.

Chorus 3:07 - 3:12 Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me3:12 - 3:16 and your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be3:16 - 3:21 Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet3:21 - 3:25 And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street3:25 - 3:30 So I'm not moving ('Cause if one day you wake up, find that you're missing me)

3:30 - 3:35 I'm not moving(And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be)3:35 - 3:40 I'm not moving(Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet)3:40 - 3:45 I'm not moving (Oh, you see me waiting for you on a corner of the street)

In this section it will show Annie questioning whether to go back to find Danial at the place the meet, then it will show him trying to get there frantically then a two shot will show Annie and Danial meeting, slowly and romantically walking towards each other.

3:45 - 3:50 Going back to the corner where I first saw you3:50 - 3:56 Gonna camp in my sleeping bag, I'm not gonna move

The next shot would be a close up of Annie and Danial kissing romantically, but the next shot reveals he wasn’t actually kissing Annie but he was kissing a randomer, the randomer walks off in a huff, the video ends with Danial looking confused and upset.
