Morgan Wallen gets bruised and battered in his latest music video, for his top five Billboard Country Airplay single “I Got Better.”

The Justin Clough-directed clip uses imagery of a car accident as a metaphor for a romantic relationship that’s careened and ended in wreckage, with Wallen emerging as a survivor. The video’s initial scenes show Wallen lying on the ground in the middle of the wreckage after the pickup truck he’s riding in has flipped and crashed.


Wallen then stumbles to his feet in the middle of the road, as rain pours down, with close-up images showing Wallen in tattered clothes and covered in scrapes and cuts. He begins walking away from the crash site and as he makes his way, the cuts and scrapes begin to disappear, a nod to the emotional healing in the song.

Wallen teased the video on last month with an image that showed the singer-songwriter in bloodied clothing. He captured the clip “Interesting bye week lol.”

“I’m finally back to being who I am,” he sings in the track, which is fueled by a sense of relief from the benefits that came with ending the relationship. Wallen co-wrote “I Got Better” with HARDY, Chase McGill, Blake Pendergrass, ERNEST and Ryan Vojtesak.

Beyond releasing his new video, Wallen recently wrapped his stadium-headlining I’m The Problem Tour, and has seen his I’m The Problem album spend 12 weeks reigning atop the all-genre Billboard 200 chart. The album has earned four No. 1 hits on the Country Airplay chart so far, with “Lies Lies Lies,” “I’m The Problem,” “Love Somebody” and “Just In Case.”
