Music video

The music video opens with Dawn in a dark area with a small crowd of people around her she sings the first verse to them. As the chorus starts the lights come on and it shows thousands of people around Dawn. The people stand and join hands to make a tunnel which Dawn crawls through as she sings the second verse. She is then seen wearing a red dress and crawling up a huge wall of men, she then spray paints a heart on one of the men's chest. Dawn then falls from the wall and is caught by the crowd below and her clothes suddenly change to a black jacket, T-shirt and leather trousers. Dawn and the crowd then dance until the song fades out.

gollark: What about "offer I accidentally declined"?
gollark: You mean the rules as posited by TJ09 or random moderators?
gollark: Well, some are official TJ09 stuff, but others are not.
gollark: I personally *do* because most are not actual rules but made up by moderators.
gollark: I bet that in a few decades you'll be thrown in prison for thinking of robbing a bank anyway and DC's trade hub rules from today will be seen as allowing too much freedom.
