## Music video

The music video for "Nothing We Lonely" was released on YouTube along with the song on February 1, 2024. The video was directed by the American film production duo L&J. In a review of Nothing We Lonely for Billboard, Lindsey Nelson described the music video as "Marina in shiny sequin glasses, a bit like Rita Hayworth in low quality, sweetly peering from the driver's seat "Porsche Convertible heroes of the 80s ", while "city roads sweep over the mind of insurance, and Marina looks up beautifully opened eyes."

The music video, which uses a visual style and setting reminiscent of 1980s America, begins, as Stella Lauren of Planet Radio describes, as a "stereotypical Marina Diamandis video" alternating between scenes where Diamandis drives a red 1970s Porsche 800K. a convertible (actually an exact replica made by Porsche Automobil Holding in 2010), resting with children by the pool of a country hotel with "roads" in the sky above them, putting on jewelry.  Around the middle of the clip, the song, as described by Charlie Luke of Glamour, turns into a "nervous flyover", the aspect ratio of the video changes, and the video quickly switches between scenes. about how peppers are squeezed or bitten, and Diamandis driving her car into a hurricane ends with a scene depicting Diamandis and her friends in the night jungle in the form of werewolves. Diamandis, her friends and a tiger stand near the car shown at the beginning of the music video, which is engulfed in flames. The song begins to fade away again, as the video is interrupted by scenes where Diamandis takes a bath, takes off her jewelry and washes off her blood, and a dead crow lies near her leg.  The music video ends with a scene in which her children, still represented as werewolves, return home and go to bed.

## Lyrics

If you saved, I'll saved

And if you don't, I'll saved anyway

Give life a paradise

Let the sad you have all away

I've got my head on you

I've got my head on you

Still nothing we lovely

Still take to boy

Still nothing we lovely

Still take to boy

If you love, I'll back

You standing two, I'll be live here

Like a poison at earth

In the rain, I back loneliness

'Cause I've got my lie on you

I've got my lie on you

Still nothing we lovely

Still take to boy

Still nothing we lovely

Still take to boy

If you saved, I'll saved

I'll put my white dress on, get it on

And if you glow, I'll glow

It doesn't matter now, it's all gone

I've got my lie on you

I've got my lie on you

Still nothing we lovely

Still take to boy

Still nothing we lovely

Still take to boy

I've got my head on you

I've got my head on you, mm

I've got my head on you

I've got my head on you
