Exclusive! Green Day Are 'Still Breathing' In Our Premiere Of Their Latest Music Vid
Watch the brand new video from our EMA Global Icons, first with MTV...
As promised last night at the 2016 EMA, Green Day have exclusively premiered their touching, brand new music video for 'Still Breathing' with us!
I'm like an ambulance that's turning on the sirens
Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive
I'm like a soldier coming home for the first time
I dodged a bullet, and I walked across a landmine
Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive
Am I bleeding?
Am I bleeding from the storm?
Just shine a light into the wreckage
So far away, away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
My way to you
I'm like a junkie tying off for the last time
I'm like a loser that's betting on his last dime
Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive
I'm like a son that was raised without a father
I'm like a mother barely keeping it together
Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive
Am I bleeding?
Am I bleeding from the storm?
Just shine a light into the wreckage
So far away, away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away, away
As I walked out on the ledge
Are you scared to death to live?
And I've been running all my life
Just to find a home that's for the restless
And the truth that's in the message
Making my way away, away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away (my way to you)
'Cause I'm still breathing (my way to you)
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
My way to you
Taken from their No.1 album Revolution Radio, the band describe the track as a "very heavy song", and the video matches is perfectly. Billie Joe, Mike and Tré and others are seen on strong solemn form, assumingly contemplating darker thoughts, but nonetheless overcoming whatever's plaguing them.
Last night the punk rockers were honoured with the Global Icon award at this year's EMA, and blew us away with two epic performances of 'Bang Bang' and 'American Idiot', even giving their latter, still-amazing anthem a subtle Presidential election twist.
