The Imagine Dragons musical group, made up of Dan Reynolds, Wayne Sermon, Ben McKee and Daniel Platzman, is one of the most internationally recognized current pop groups. Crushed is the song that tells the story of survival of a young Ukrainian from the horror of Russian bombing.

The American group belongs to and is an ambassador for United24, a platform promoted by Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelensky to collect funds for humanitarian aid in the country. This song, Crushed, serves as an invitation to the group's listeners to collaborate for the cause.

"It is a dedication to Ukraine and a support for United24"
Mykhailo Fedorov, Minister of Digital Transformation in Ukraine.
The music video is shot in a Ukrainian town bombarded by the horror of the Russian invasion. Throughout the video they show images of the state of destruction of the buildings in the town together with Sasha, a survivor of the bombing. While the images are shown, texts appear that tell the story of Sasha's survival.

The video is sponsored by United24 to raise funds to improve as much as possible in the current dire situation in Ukraine.

Lyrics.-
I suppose she’s supposed to be exactly what they want her to be
So pretty in pink
Necklace and ring, don’t be heard
Just be seen
But that’s not who I am
She said I can feel, I can feel too much
And I wish they’d go away, go away
Cause it’s crushing me
It’s crushing me

Don’t you know that you don’t have a say and the scarlet “A” on
Your neck so pretty in red, eyes are all dead
What they haven’t said gets stuck in your head
The silence is deafening and your heart is bleeding out
But they don’t care, no they never cared at all
They never cared at all
That’s not who I am

She said I can feel, I can feel too much
And I wish they’d go away, go away
Cause its crushing me
It’s crushing me
It’s crushing me
It’s crushing me
She just wants to be free, take it or leave it

Eyes like the sunrise
Colorful rainbow

She said I can feel, I can feel too much
And I wish it’d go away, go away
Cause they’re crushing me
They’re crushing me

(I can feel, I can feel too much
They’re crushing me
I can feel, I can feel too much
Oh they’re crushing me)

Crushing me
Crash down on me
Crash down on me
