Lyrics:
It started with the stones
Setting in the ground
Laying all the pathways through our town
Started with the rainfall
Battering your face
It all started when the gales came
Whistling, whistling down
My love,
It seems the dust hasn't settled
On the city we left alone
And the vultures are circling above
The city of skin and bone
It started with our lungs
Choking on exhaust
Searching for a sign until we're lost
Started with the pavement's
Loveless embrace
It all started when the gales came to carry us
So far away
It started with the stones
Setting in the ground
Think that you can call yourself a home
With a roof that would never keep the rain out

Gosh. To think that my worries at first only concerned the desk being able to hold you dancing on top of it. The end is so shocking in the social context we are living. Such darkness and innocence conveyed artistically. I admire your performance in all the dimensions of the story.

It was all sunflowers and smiles and then it got so dark. This is shocking and artistic all at once!
Idk, but every video involving Merrick has done has lead me to falling in love with the song and the dance. Thank you for adding another favorite to my song collection. Nice job
Excellent choice in using Merrick to star in this video. The kid is a legend already -- what a talent!!
Thank you Convey for bringing Merrick Hanna on to perform in your video. This was a profoundly powerful statement in the school shootings that have traumatized our nation for decades. Merrick, thanks for your stunning choreography and performance.
Great on so many levels. Always a big wow! Love love love the serious topic
This is your true calling, Merrick! Bringing lyrics to life through storytelling in dance! Stay true to this and you will go far!!
Wow lil dude! Your content just keeps getting better and better and you always step it up a notch! Just WOW! 👌👌👍👍
Wow Merrick! So emotional. I can't watch your videos without crying. You're amazing. I'm so happy for you that you get to live your dream of dancing and eliciting emotions from those of us who get to see it.
DANG you deserve way more attention this was great

The music, the dance moves, the story and the edit made this video really fun to watch. Great job Merrick!
I watched you first when I was 9 and now your just here and still dancing and I hope you keep dancing cause you're still so inspirational to younger kids.
I wasn't sure exactly where this video was going at first with the back-and-forth cuts between the light and dark sides but once they crossed over - wow, that was powerful. Especially when you see all the flowers spilling out if their pots by the end. Very powerful stuff, and unfortunately it's become even more relevant in the years since this video was uploaded. A hauntingly beautiful video ❤
Merrick, I’ve been sharing this video for over a year. This performance is gut wrenching on a good day. This week is harder than ever with the Uvalde massacre. I’m sharing this again on Facebook/Meta and Twitter. Let’s make people think. Let them see it from the kids’ perspectives. Thank you for this brilliant choreography and performance.
Dude. The first I saw your audition I literally cried. Out of sadness and happyness. You are perfect buddy
This is so incredible and powerful. Both the music and the dancing are incomparable to anything!!! Wow
Kiddo, you are deep. You're straight transmuting darkness into expression. Everyone holds the capacity for darkness and light. To me this piece represented the reminder to that. May everyone find the gifts in life that make them grateful to be alive and help them heal their pain into strengths so that they may respect the lives of others and ultimately choose to create rather than destroy. Thanks for bearing your heart out for us. You are appreciated. I look forward to more and btw... your stuff with Nonstop was fire too. 🔥👏💜🙏✨💥
Bring back the fun in learning at school. Bring back the kindness at school. Bring back the sweet talk to girls and boys. Bring back the love of school. Bring back good inspiration. Feel free to add positive thoughts to this. 💖📏📐💖
if he brought out his own merch I would buy it right away!
This is probably your best work I’ve seen to date, Merrick!!🤘😎
Wow! Fine work Merrick 👏🏻 Really caught me off guard left me with a tear in my eye. Superb storytelling with a message. Your best performance ever 👍🏼
Also, hilarious video game PSA parody, dude! Can’t believe you “beat” another kid to death with a brick! LOL

Incredible. Your ability to express through the Art of Dance is both stunning and inspirational.
very high quality social cinema. Thank you Merrick!
What a meaningful performance and a powerful message.
WOW... sending a message with a dance (again) and getting it over so well.....WOW, WOW, WOW!!!
I used to be obsessed with your AGT stuff a couple years ago! I’m glad your still dancing and I really like your music! (You have a great voice!)
This kid has got talent that he shouldn’t throw away at all and I can see he’s got bright future?!
I can’t even floss... god your so good at dancing!
GREAT JOB MERRICK AND GREAT SONG TOO!!!
Merrick hanna your one of the most talented person I've ever seen like I remember trying to do one of ur moves but I couldn't lol
Wow. That ending was unexpected. Powerful video Merrick!
First I held my breath, then I lost my breath, then my jaw dropped. That was mind blown
My god I wasn’t really expecting the ending. But I liked it, it really brought to light some of the dark things people try to ignore
Dunno how many times I watched this...

So glad to see a band give you an opportunity like this. Incredible dancing Merrick. The ending was a bit hard to watch and must have been a little daunting to shoot that section. Praying there will come a day when we don't have to hear about another school shooting. You are incredibly gifted young man. Keep dancing!!!!!
Amazing, Merrick. And I love the song. The video reminds me of Pearl Jam's video for "Jeremy," which was seen by some as too controversial at the time. Your performance, the story and the ending, so powerful, and I know this message will reach young people. I can't wait to see how you surprise us next.
You portrayed the essence of inner struggle perfectly
BRO BRO BRO YOU TELL A STORY SO WELL THAT AS AN AUTHOR I HAVE TO WRITE ONE NOW HAH-
Still sparkling 2023
Wow. This was all types of amazing with a twist. Great job to all those involved.
School started in Australia this week for the year, I initially thought it might be connected to that (forgetting that USA schools start in the middle of the year), didn’t expect the ending, very powerful, well done.
This is so cool and nice!! keep up the work 😊😊😊
Nice performance and outstanding editing! Well done, badass Merrick. 😎
I have never been this early to a video in my life
great song was shocked at the ending but love this song should have a million views
Your videos are so great and you dance so well.Been watching since AGT.
I love you merrick. You are an inspiration to all.Lots of LOVE 💖
Wow Merrick, your artistic style has come so far! I absolutely loved the contrast between the dark side and the light side of the two roles you portrayed in the video. When the sunflower pots were shot, I thought it was symbolic of happy thoughts being destroyed by depression... am I correct? Anyway, I'm so excited to see you continue improving your choreography and make amazing videos! We are all excited.

Dang! Merrick your storytelling is getting so much better, that was intense!
I cried when I saw the robot dance on America Got Talent. I am crying again, for different reasons. I went to a march in support of the children of Stoneman Douglas highschool. One girl who had survived the shooting described how she lived because classmates shot to death fell on top of her. Here I am watching a teenage boy who created a dance featuring a school shooting. Where are we as a country?
1:58 fav moment😍
A-1 production music video Merrick that was one of the best music videos I have ever seen you done keep up the awesome content bro 👏🎼🎵🎧
