Background

In December 2015, Three Days Grace's drummer Neil Sanderson said "Fallen Angel" was about his mother's grief after the deaths of his brother and father when he was five years old.[3]

Music video

An official lyric video for the single was released on 2 November 2015, directed by Matthew JC.[4] The video begins with singer Matt Walst stating, "This song is about losing the people we love and wishing we could have been the ones to save them."[2] Lyrics are overlaid atop the band's live performance at the Bomb Factory in Dallas, TX.[5]

Legacy

In 2016, Sanderson said the band created a page on their official website entitled the "Fallen Angel Dedication Wall" where messages can be posted in memory of loved ones.[6]
