This metaphorical account of the end of a relationship was released as the sixth single from Bastille's debut studio-album, Bad Blood. It was released as a digital download single on September 2, 2013.
The accompanying music video was shot in Lithuania and sees frontman Dan Smith traversing through a dream full of symbolism. The surreal clip reflects the frontman's love of David Lynch's style and themes, which was also alluded to on the band's "Laura Palmer" single. Smith explained to DIY: "For me, it really touches upon all of the Lynchian things that I always bang on about. It's a kind of dream narrative that gives the impression of a story, rather than actually telling one. I'm just really happy with some of the shots in it, and it'll be interesting to see what people think." "There's no fire in it, as well," he added. Our big aim with the video was to make sure there would be possession that had been misplaced, and no fire. It'll be interesting to see what people think."
