The video starts off with black-and-white visuals of Adele leaving her home, taking one last wistful look out the window, and then hitting the road.
This could be symbolic of her 2019 divorce from Simon Konecki.
In the song, Adele hints that it was because she was still young.
"I had good intentions and the highest hopes but I know right now it probably doesn't even show," sings Adele.
"Go easy on me, baby. I was still a child. Didn't get the chance to feel the world around me," she sings.
The music video has been trending in the top ten videos on YouTube, and #Adele has been trending as #1 on Twitter.
'Easy On Me' is taken from Adele's upcoming album, '30', which is set to be released on November 19.
