Music videos

First video

The first music video released for this song featured the band playing at a concert at Water Street Music Hall (Rochester, NY) and then showing clips of the band when not performing.

Second video

The second music video release for this song was about how every kid speaks a different "voice" but the same things happen. It shows a close-up of some kids while it shows events in the background. Most of them showing the parents arguing while the child is present whereas others feature a sick/suffering parent in the background, such as one where a father puts on an oxygen mask. As the song nears the end the children turn around and walk toward their parents. It shows the father with the oxygen mask being kissed by his son as he walks away. The video, like the first, also featured the band playing at some type of concert event.
