Music video

A music video was first released onto Facebook on 28 January 2016[1] and a day after on YouTube[2] at a total length of three minutes and thirty-six seconds. The video begins with Birdy lying down on her bed and as the camera gets close to her eye, we see what is in her mind. Demons and angels appear in her way throughout the video. In the end, Birdy is again shown in the bedroom where she is still lying down. The video was directed by Chris Turner (Favourite Color Black).[3]
