Music Video
On February 8th, Mike tweeted, "Friends in LA: can anyone give me a live video YOU SHOT (and own) of the Skirball fire? Must be a vid of the fire, not of a TV / news / etc (they own that footage). I want to use it for something I'm making. Use #FireVideoForMike to show me." and "Ask your friends for me. I need a video someone took in person, of the Getty Center / Skirball Fire. #FireVideoForMike"
This footage was used in the music video, released on March 29th. The video featured footage of the LA fire and Mike walking through the LA nature and the burned terrain while singing the song.

Lyrics
I used to know where the bottom was
Somewhere far under the ocean waves
Up on a ledge I was looking down
It was far enough to keep me safe
But the ground was cracked open
Threw me in the ocean
Cast me out away at sea
And the waves are still breaking
Now that I awaken
No one’s left to answer me
My inside’s out, my left is right
My upside’s down, my black is white
I hold my breath and close my eyes
And wait for dawn but there’s no light
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
I used to sleep without waking up
In a dream I made from painted walls
I was a moment away from done
When the black spilled out across it all
And my eyes were made sober
World was turned over
Washing out the lines I’d seen
And my heart is still breaking
Now that I awaken
No one’s left to answer me
My inside’s out, my left is right
My upside’s down, my black is white
I hold my breath and close my eyes
And wait for dawn but there’s no light
I’m a call without an answer
I’m a shadow in the dark
Trying to put it back together
As I watch it fall apart
I’m a call without an answer
I’m a shadow in the dark
Trying to put it back together
As I watch it fall apart
My inside’s out, my left is right
My upside’s down, my black is white
I hold my breath and close my eyes
And wait for dawn but there’s no light
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore, anymore
