Lyrics 🎶
What are we doing?
We’re burning everything we love for something stupid
It’s so confusing that we kill ourselves for what the news said
But maybe ruining our lives is part of being human
Or it’s just rooted in our evolution
No use in running from something that you can’t escape
It’s what you wanted
It’s in your f*cking blood you got a taste and now you love it
And now we’re staring in the face of our annihilation isolated Wide awake awaiting judgement

Lights out we welcome the darkness Black out our eyes and believe
We made a home for the heartless To run away from reality

Living in the madness
Covered in the ashes
It’s burning down there’s no way out And I don’t know where we’re headed Everything is broken
The sky is in the ocean
It’s burning down there’s no way out
The sun goes down and it’s armageddon

The destruction in motion we’re witnessing is related
We build explosive emotions and then we just detonate’em
We play roulette with full clips then we go to bed praying
Im f*cking losing my sh*t, there’s no solution, I hate it
I can’t take it
I feel I’m on the edge and I’m breaking
I’m f*cking bothered by the fact that the whole worlds decimated
I see the faces, the anguish as it burns to the ground
We chose our fate and it’s too late no there’s no turning back now

This is the end
This is the end so live it in the moment Lights out never feeling more alive
Stop pretending that you didn’t want it Light it up, burn it down, and say goodbye


Process🪄
1. Finding a couple of fitting prompts, often with the help of ChatGPT. I've asked it to generate prompts based on the song lyrics I give it. Then just a lot of testing and experimentation with keywords in Stable Diffusion, to find prompts that vibe with the song.
2. Feed the song to this audio keyframe tool: https://www.chigozie.co.uk/audio-keyframe-generator/ matching the fps with my project (I do 25) and entering a suitable function. I use something like "1.02 + x^5" for zoom and "0.60 - x^6" for strength schedule, but I often play around with them to find different results. More functions can be found in the settings below.
3. Entering the keyframes and prompt into the Automatic1111 extension Deforum and generating an animation (I usually do this 4 times with different settings/prompts to get more footage to work with later)
4. Editing the generated sequences in Premiere and then adding lyrics/effects in After Effects. I use the multicam feature in Premiere to cut between the generated animations, resulting in a more dynamic background with mostly the best parts. I create the lyrics in After Effects and also add a bunch of effects like additional camera movements, shakes, scratches, particles, blur and chromatic aberration. Most of these are made to react to the music through generated audio keyframes.
