Music video

The video begins in a shot of a beating heart on a TV monitor, and the shot becomes a small montage of the band in a party, and also in a white and orange corridor playing their instruments. This scene alternates with shots of Joel Madden and a woman in an elevator. When the chorus comes, the band appears in individual shots in the party. This turns into the band in the corridor again, and then into Madden's elevator buddy raging at him. The party scene, the corridor scene, a new scene of three nurses dancing in a vacant corridor, a new elevator scene and the TV heart breaking apart play throughout the chorus, and then the video turns into individual shots of the band playing in the elevator. These scenes alternate until the end.
