The music video starts off with the band walking down some stairs into a hall where they perform the song. Several scenes show the band members in pairs or singularly inside a glass container with the band staring outwards. Possible themes may be connected to clocks or time as shown in the music video. In the end, the band is seen walking up the same flight of stairs from the beginning of the video, and at the very end the words "White Prayer" are shown across the wall in shadow.
