Video

The video was directed by Grimes and her brother, Mac Boucher, under the production alias Roco-Prime, and was inspired by Dante's Inferno. Grimes shared the following statement about the video: "It's our take on Dante's Inferno. The circles of hell reflect more contemporary issues though. We shot a bunch at the salton sea which is basically an apocalyptic wasteland filled with dead fish because of human carelessness, the bullet hole hallway a la korn freak on a leash, etc. If you look closely, you can find clues. Haha, but in the usual fashion it is also abstract enough to just be a trippy visual accompaniment to the song".

Lyrics

Dreams, they feel like memories when I dream of you
Time won't stay, it'll stretch itself out from a minute to days
And I'd like to think that we don't dream to wipe it off
'Cos I've been here

Living up, giving up
When I go, can I go with you, you?
When I go, can I go with...
Go, go, go, go, go with
Go with
Go, go, go, go, go
(Blood diamonds)

Happy scenes, a stupid dream when I dream of you
They don't stay, it might all be delusion but I couldn't say
And I'd like to think that we don't dream just to dream it off
'Cos I've been here

In love, give it up
When I go, can I go with you, you?
When I go, can I go with...
Go, can I go with
Go, can I go with
Go, can I go with
Go, can I go with
Go, can I go with
Go, can I go with
You
