This is the first single from American metal band Disturbed's fifth album, Asylum. Guitarist Dan Donegan explained to Noisecreep that the song "is about the acknowledgment of global warming." He added: "We took a different approach. We've done, what, 70-80 songs in our career? We don't want to rehash old ideas. I was thinking of global warming issues. David (Draiman, vocals) already had the title and melody, and I made a suggestion to him about global warming. We're not trying to be environmentalists, but maybe our choices in life and the ignorance of how we live is leading us to another way to die and effecting the food chain."
This reached #1 on both the Mainstream Rock and Rock Songs charts. It also peaked at #15 on the Alternative Songs tally.
The music video, directed by Robert Schober ("Asylum"), shows the devastating effects of pollution and other environmental threats on the planet. The band members did not appear in the clip.
