Hitting all the possible feels, Halsey released the cathartic visual for her emotional track “Without Me” on Monday (Oct. 29). Narrating an explosive, toxic relationship, the video follows Halsey and a boyfriend in a mix of sweet moments and aggressive interactions — portraying an abusive relationship fueled by alcohol, bad decisions and passion.
Rocking short pink hair, the singer stunts in sexy shots in the bathtub, in the shower and during the ardent interplay between the couple. Fun, alcohol-drenched nights turn to scenes of Halsey holding her man’s head up out of the toilet, and, eventually, watching from afar as he’s hauled away after another debauched night.
Soaring over the dreamy melody, Halsey delivers a powerful vocal performance as she emotionally confesses “Gave love about a hundred tries/ Just running from the demons in your mind/ Then I took yours and made ’em mine/ I didn’t notice ’cause my love was blind.”
As the relationship gets more and more hazardous, the ultimatum comes when the man steals money from the singer, resulting in a blow-out argument.
