It was released through Fueled by Ramen on November 24, 2021, as the fourth and final single from their sixth studio album, Scaled and Icy (2021).

It is a continuation of the video for "Saturday", and draws much of its plot from the lore established in Twenty One Pilots' preceding album, Trench (2018).

[3] The video begins with a scene of a sea dragon, which fades into a room housing the nine bishops in the fictional dystopia of Dema that proceed to execute the bishop named Keons, who is shown to have been the one controlling the dragon.

The scene then cuts to Joseph washing up on the shore of an island, which goes by the name of "Voldsøy", located beside the conceptual continent known as "Trench".

Joseph then lifts the antlers above his head, which allows him to seize control of the dead bishop in Dema.
