Music video
The music video, directed by Meiert Avis, was released on July 20 on VEVO and was shot with a Canon 5D MkII dSLR. It features ten people (Momsen included) sitting around a table in imitation of the Last Supper. Taylor Momsen (as Mary Magdalene) starts to crawl over the table, tipping over the food and spilling the drinks whilst singing as the rest watch. Later she starts ripping apart a bouquet of roses. The band confirmed it is set after the death of Christ.

Background
Lead singer, Taylor Momsen, said the song was about "Mary Magdalene after the crucifixion of Jesus."
"It is about how Mary felt, and how she was grieving, but I think a lot of people can relate to it."
