“The video [portrays] the claustrophobic feeling I felt when writing the song,” he explains. “I’d kind of gone off the tracks and cut anyone with positive influence out of my life…and felt alone.

Kyle Cogan came to us with a treatment for the video and it was so spot on that we had to do it.” - Matt Maeson
