The video starts out with a gun smoking as Christina is in pitch black darkness. Why? She's just killed herself . The song has nothing to do with a relationship but writer (Sia), singer (Christina), & director (Anthony) will make no direct reference to this as RCA is shopping it as a "Summer break up anthem" although it could be a double entendre it is most certainly not. "We're left as shells, we're lost to find" are the best lyrics in the song to support my "claim" (FACT) The "you've" she's referencing is "our world" obviously. Or not so much? After the opening she is in a dream-like room that's suppose to represent her past, dirt, filth & lies. After departing from that room she is in a sort of pre-hell world laying on coal until the whole scene turns orange representing hell. The male who comes over (tan as can be) is suppose to represent negativity or in a more creative way 'the devil'. Notice how it never shows his face nor does it show him in real time. That's because he's not suppose to be a human or real he's suppose to be a figment of her imagination. It's all a figment of her imagination until she enters the next scene, purgatory. Before entering purgatory she takes off her blouse (it's mighty hot in hell, lol) She's in purgatory for only a couple of seconds before she enters heaven (obviously the 2nd to last scene where the background and her clothing are all white. After heaven she becomes very "angelic like" clearly representing that she is "complete" and at peace. As the video fades away you'll notice a halo accumulating her entire being. I'm pretty sure none of the people involved in this song/video such as Christina, Sia, or Anthony are religious so it was more of a creative thing to symbolize the current state of the world hence the lyrics in the chorus "I feel like our worlds been infected, but somehow you've left me neglected." The (you've) that she's referring to is "our world" Christina is very in tune to life & what's going on around her I mean come on she's the 'global spokesperson for world hunger relief efforts' & songs on the new album like "Bionic" "Birds of Prey" 'You Lost Me' "Monday Morning" & so on are deeper than they appear no matter how mundane the lyrics may sound. How do I know all this? Don't worry about it ;-) Oh and here's a quote from the director Anthony Mandler about the concept of the video: "We are about to watch something that is going to move and transform us. In the end we've traveled through Christina's world. One that is physically, mentally and spiritually charged. Nothing is what it seems. Everything is fractured and evolving, falling away... Read between the lines. I love being introspective and seeing everything so transparently!! Your mom clearly doesn’t look at things on an objective level.
