My past has been playing me, my second mistakes are mistakes in me.
Girl ripping up photographs of herself and throwing them in the fire
(Mistakes in me)
Better make them all again.
Doing makeup in the mirror
It’s just a slip of the tongue.
Guitar rythm close up
You don’t realise you’re threatening the only one.
Close up smirk
Close up of Hollie's lips
You don’t fire this loaded gun.
Long shot of the whole band playing

It’s anyone.

Rapid drum beat close up

Crosses out previous diary extract and writes 'Say what you want'

I’ve heard it all before, I know that you…

Over the shoulder shot 'I know what you want'

It’s just a slip of the tongue,.
It’s just a slip of the tongue.
It’s just a slip of the tongue
It’s just a slip of the tongue
Crowd clapping in rhythm

IT’S JUST A SLIP OF THE TONGUE
Medium shots of band headbanging, spinning and thrashing
You know, you’re not fooling anyone.
Girl shouting 'You're not fooling anyone' at the other girl
Girl backs the other girl up at lockers, shouting

It’s just a slip of the tongue
You’re not fooling anyone
Say what you want. (7 seconds)
Medium close up of Hollie
I’ve heard it all before. I know that you…
Say what you want. (7 seconds)
Pushes the girl against the lockers, close up of the reaction of the bully
I know what you want.
Saying this to the girl
I know what you want.
Saying this to the camera - close up, smile on face at the end and looks down

TOTAL SONG TIME - 4:20
