Después del éxito alcanzado con sencillo debut Little Talks, los islandeses de Of Monsters and Men, vuelven a aplicar la misma fórmula para el segundo video del álbum My Head Is an Animal.

Con este video, el grupo comienza a consolidar un lenguaje propio que, aún sin tener el nivel de impacto que tuvo el primero, es una clara declaración de intenciones en relación a la estética que acompañaría a todos los vÍdeos de su primera producción discográfica.
Of Monsters and Men nos presenta aquí una nueva parte de su mundo fantástico, combinando en una escala de grises cautivante, imágenes y siluetas animadas con acción real, representada en los personajes humanos. Los únicos atisbos de color del video se ciñen a tonalidades ocres y rojizas, y se limitan únicamente a los cuatro protagonistas de esta historia, para que con el correr de la narrativa vayan aumentando en intensidad y saturación con la aparición de los dos espíritus zoomorfos que los rescatan de su captura.

Una vez más, los oriundos de Islandia nos ofrecen un escenario apocalíptico y complejo, cargado de simbolismos de diferentes períodos históricos, superpuestos en varios planos a modo de collage, y levemente animados, para darnos esa sensación de estar viendo una versión animada sacada directamente de las páginas de Andrzej Sapkowski.

Letra.-
 
Taking over this town, they should worry
But these problems aside I think I taught you well
That we won't run, and we won't run, and we won't run

And in the winter night sky ships are sailing
Looking down on these bright blue city lights
And they won't wait, and they won't wait, and they won't wait
We're here to stay, we're here to stay, we're here to stay

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
A lionheart

His crown lit up the way as we moved slowly
Past the wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind
Though far away, though far away, though far away
We're still the same, we're still the same, we're still the same

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And in the sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And as the world comes to an end
I'll be here to hold your hand
Cause you're my king and I'm your lionheart

Lionheart
Lionheart
A lionheart
Lionheart
A lionheart
Lionheart
A lionheart
Lionheart

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart.
And in the sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
A lionheart
