Ved: Just tell me this Cloe, Do you love me?
Cloe: I did…once
Ved: (with tears in his eyes) But?
Cloe: (Looks away) Not anymore…I’m sorry!
Ved: Because you love him?
Cloe: (Shouts) NO…because you turned back into the jerk you was in the city? Because I realised I could never be happy with you and I would never know what you would be thinking and do you know what scares me the most?
Ved: (Uses his free hand to wipe away the tears) What?
Cloe: (In between sobs) That I would wake up in darkness…because off you again.

Ved: (turns to face her, his eyes begging for forgiveness) What if I changed…what if I stop acting like a jerk and became the man you loved
Cloe: (Shakes her head) You can’t just say that…you gotta prove it to me

On this half lit day
With your crown beneath your wings
(Camera pans around to show rocks cumbering under Ved’s weight)
Cloe: I need to go get help…I can’t pull you up myself!
(Ved casts a look under him as the rock beneath his fingers start to crack away from the cliff face)

Ev'ry word just echoes
And the empty world sings
(Camera zooms out as Ved’s body falls away from the cliff face…the sound of Cloe calling after him echo’s through the empty clearing)
Where have you gone, my feather light heart?
I never imagined I could leave.
(Camera zooms back up to show Cloe still leaning over the cliff, tears pour from her eyes as she pushes herself up and moves away from the edge)
In the glistening
Of the lost and open sky
(When Cloe is away from the edge, she lets her body drop against a tree and slowly sinks to the floor, crying against the hard wood)
Tiny piece of you sits
Simple wish waits for reply
(Camera moves back over to the cliff edge and we can see Ved’s body spread out on a rock, with the waves below knocking his body further into the sea. Camera slowly fades to black)
Where have you gone my feather light heart?
You mustn't forget what love can see.
