A music video was released for the single was filmed by Aggressive, directed by Alex Topaller and Dan Shapiro and produced by Shapiro and Kelvin Carver. The video, shot in black and white shows, Cris Cab strumming his guitar, or singing or in a relationship with some mysterious women. The video is an array of such women, an "arresting symmetry""[1] in light and in shadow about some dangerous relationships with these attractive women showing off with their parallel mirrored images. Pharrell Williams makes cameo appearance in the video. Visuals and bits of intimate narrative are revealed and obscured by these reflections, teasing the viewer that there is tantalizing truth to be revealed. The video end with one of the women "capturing" Cab and tying him to a chair.
