Just to clear the air, this video is the most disturbing piece of film i've ever seen-

That said, i have no idea what really is going on-
I understand that the 'Grownup' character is preventing the 'Child' character from gettin his legs, and taking him away to do creepy Molestation-esque stuff on him, but im not certain thats it.

One thing a lot of people seem to miss about this video is the paintbrush aspect. The adult is trying to paint the child everytime he gets him, but never finds success- Perhaps its a visual metaphor for him trying to kill him? Because after the child gets the paintbrush, he ACTUALLY paints himself, and after that, he slumps over as if hes dead.

...so... maybe its saying the adult can only try to kill the child, or try to make the child want to die- But only the kid himself can kill himself.

Or maybe its an extension of the lyrics- "Im breathing so i guess im still alive, even if signs seem to tell me otherwise."
