Music video
The video features Khan entering an imaginary world through a fort in her bedroom. In this world, Khan meets a little girl and they find a cave. They walk up to a door hidden in the cave where a strong wind blows the little girl across the cave and is then eaten alive by a recliner. After the wind stops, Khan enters the door and sees that she is back in her home. While she is looking in the mirror a vacuum cleaner attacks her. The video cuts to a scene where Khan is stabbing what looks like a dummy and confetti flies all over the place. Khan goes back upstairs to her bedroom and sees herself coming out of the fort.
