Intro, verse & first chorus

Scott will be walking down the street, showing his frustration . He will stop outside a building and light a cigarette. he will begin talking to our first character. This elderly person will be expressing his anger and frustration, the idea is for him to be talking about immigration but obviously that will not be heard. The frustration needs to be there. During the chorus we will be seeing this elderly person going on a total rant, at the of the chorus we will see the man stop shouting for a moment and give off a smile, as though he has released his tension and gotten something of his chest.

Concept
We are not representing an opinion, we are simply showing the tension which is around us. At each scene we see a slight release of tension by each individual.
The song is about releasing tension. Since the terror attacks in Belgium, the cities are on high alert. People are tense. We need to show this tension though Scott and the people which make up the city.
