Lyrics and Interpretation

Codex by Radiohead

Sleight of hand
Jump off the end
Into a clear lake
No one around

Just dragonflies
Flying to the side
No one gets hurt
You’ve done nothing wrong

Slide your hand
Jump off the end
The water’s clear, and innocent
The water’s clear, and innocent

The lyrics here are very deep and can be interpreted to be related to 'suicide'. A lake is mentioned which therefore would need to be part of the video, and we think the video would be about a person who is alone, and wanting to escape from themselves. As the song is very calm and quiet, we thought we could portray a cleansing idea of a person trying to escape their problems
