Then it zoomed to Olga sitting on a building rooftop, where the sky is pitch black and features Olga with dark angel wings, noted as a Dark Angel. Then features the group on a rooftop singing to the song.

Throughout the video, it features a woman in her home, where it appears she is depressed. She then starts crying briefly on the group. After the group sing in the second verse, it features the woman standing up from her couch and she stands with her hands wide, a similar pose to the Crucifixion of Jesus.
