[1][2] After an announcement regarding information for a September 2021 UK arena tour was released, the band revealed a teaser for the new music video for "Teardrops" that would be dropped the following day.

The song talks about kids growing up in today's age with tech addiction being commonplace and the problems of it.

The music video represents Sykes’ struggles with his mental health and drug abuse, but he overpassed it because of his bandmates.

[1] During the production of "Teardrops", Sykes tried to convince Fish to incorporate elephant trumpet noises into the song.

[4] It was also noted that the chord progression of "Teardrops" took inspiration from the aforementioned band's "Somewhere I Belong" on Linkin Park's Meteora that was released in 2003.

"[15]Additionally, Sykes would explain his thought process on the meaning behind "Teardrops" in an interview with BBC Radio 1: "Tech addiction is so normal for us these days.

This song is about how our moral compass is a little bit skewed because we're so numb to the bad news every single day and it's hard to know what we should actually do about that.

[19][20][21] Post Human: Survival Horror was released on 30 October, which would help keep "Teardrops" steadily in the Top 100 for the following two weeks, 49 and 90, before dropping out of the charts completely on 20 November 2020.

Directed by Sykes himself, the video takes inspirations from his battle with depression during the lockdown period, in which this would be represented in the scenes with him drowning.
