==Versions==
===How Long?===
This is the only known original version. ===How Long? (Instrumental)===From a CD-R promo of the album, released by [[Columbia Records]]. This track may be unofficial.
==Music video==
The music video was filmed by London-based team Shynola in October 2012, with the post production taking up that winter. It is the first music video not to feature the band members of HTDA. Filmed in Wales, it opens with a young man (Alex Stuart) wearing nothing but a loincloth waking up in a dystopian wasteland. He paints his body with tribal markings and forages for leaves, running and crawling across the bleak landscape. He sees an old man, covered with possessions, and signals down to him from a high cliff. When the old man turns to wave, the young man has vanished and rapidly appears behind him, strangling him to death with a piece of cord. Having taken all the possessions he desires and filled a water bottle, he returns to his home to bring the water to his ill and elderly mother.
