    Music video

The video, directed by Phil Harder, is simple in concept; it is a performance piece with the band playing in an apartment while lead singer Ben Kowalewicz sings to the camera. However, the frames run at a slower pace, implementing slow motion for dramatic effect. As the video progresses, things in the apartment begin to explode, matching the tone and intensity of the song. Things continue to explode until the end of the video, when Kowalewicz falls to the floor of the ravaged apartment. Kowalewicz's collapse is due to the uncut version, in which he gets shot through the head.
