[edit] Music video
The video was directed by The Brothers Strause. It portrays a young woman's inner conflict dealing with an abusive relationship. The woman closes off to the rest of the world, represented with the special effects of crystals forming around her. By the end, the crystals recede, symbolising her success in fighting the relationship.
