Music video
The music video, directed by Tony Petrossian, shows the band playing in a location with heavy rain. The story of the video shows a woman and a man doing romantic things to each other, but when the woman ( Taylor Cole ) tries to move on the next day, the man refuses to let her close because he is tired of her. After a while, the car will run out of fuel. After refueling, the woman tries to approach the man and lets him fill up the barrel. He pushes it away, but the barrel has emptied, the fuel has been poured on the floor. The man gets into the car and drives away. The girl runs after the car. The man stops outside a hotel, goes inside, and finds a blonde woman who is replacing the previous woman he left behind. The previous woman eventually manages to go to the hotel where he is staying. Then she enters the hotel room and soaks the man, the blonde woman and herself with the barrel he dropped earlier. She then pulls out a lighter to set the room and everyone else on fire. However, when she drops the lighter on the bed, it has no effect. The woman smiles and gives a sarcastic kiss to the scared couple crouching on the bed. Now they realize they are not going to die. The camera then switches to a dripping water hose, indicating that it was used to fill the keg with water.
