Music video
The video features Lights drawing comics in her bedroom, which gradually animate and send her comic self into outer space. Lights lands on a desolate planet and walks around, looking for something. She picks up a crystal and plants it into the earth, causing the dark sky to become filled with light and the plants to thrive once again - she becomes the "saviour" of the planet. The video concludes with Lights sitting in her bedroom, watching a pink lamp that is increasingly glowing with ethereal light.
