The video begins by showing the members of the band fixing their stage makeup and costumes. After all are ready, Andy Six is shown smoking and exhaling. The view changes to show Six stitching a wound on his mouth in the mirror with the other members behind him. The track "The Outcasts (Call to Arms)" is heard, with the image of the skeleton of a virgin, then the song begins. In the penultimate choir, a group of children behind them shouting "Go!" with Six, then all the children make a detour to the band, on having ended one sees Six kneeling down and praying, and between the children there appears David Sasik, the young actor who appeared in the "Knives and Pens" music video.

"Fallen Angels" is the third single by the American rock band, Black Veil Brides, and the first single from their second album Set the World on Fire. The song is inspired by the biblical story told in Revelation 12, in which Satan and one-third of God's angels rebelled against God, starting a war in Heaven and were therefore cast out of Heaven to the Earth, becoming "fallen angels." The story was introduced to Andy Biersack and the Black Veil Brides by their band artist Richard Villa:
He's very much into biblical stories, and he found the whole story of the fallen angels who were the ultimate outcasts. They weren't sent to hell, but they weren't allowed in heaven. They had nowhere to go. They weren't human, either, so they had this lonely existence. They wound up banding together and creating their own gang of sorts. We really liked that and wound up writing a song very much based on how we could equate that to our lives.

This will be our Legacy."
