Basiclly I see the band performing in an old abandoned black and grey carnival (with all the old broken down rides charred and in rubble), with groups of orange balloons set in different spots on the stage. The sky is completely overcast and a really dark grey. This continues throughout most of the song.
Just as the bridge begins, the sun starts to break through the clouds. A group of monarch butterflies begin to arrive as the ray of gets larger (but never covers the sky). Out from the shadows steps the escape artist from the Burn Burn cover with the monarchs around him. It has the escape artist walking in a slow motion-ish manner, but then the camera zooms in on one of the monarchs just as it goes to land on the side of one of the rides.
The screen starts to get darker as the sunlight is once again being covered by clouds towards the end of the bridge. Just as Steve's guitar starts, the monarchs morph into bats while they start to swarm around him, so he starts to panic. He is running across the the abandoned carnival towards the stage as the bats all swarm around him trying to attack him but he manages to reach the stage, and he begins to gather the groups of balloons (this is all during the solo). Once gathering them, he begins to take off floating through the sky. The bats continue to follow but are far underneath as the song finishes with him in the sky.
