Music video



The music video was shot by director . It begins with an animated/CGI image of an egg that cracks becomes a bird. This bird flies off past several doors, and enters one into a space scene. The scene switches to Chara in an almost completely white room with a white dress. She wears her hair half-straight and half in an afro (with the division being vertically down the centre of her head). The scene switches to a drawing a Chara falling through a dark, psychedelic scene, followed by a white-backed scene depicting different drawings. Chara returns to the white room, however with a different hair-style and now drawn animals floating around her. Occasionally the originally dressed Chara appears behind her. The video ends with more psychedelic scenes and the bird flying away into space/clouds.
