In its first week of release, the single sold 13,000 downloads in the United States. Guitarist Mike McCready said the song was inspired by Roger Waters's The Wall Live Tour, when after attending a concert in 2011, he "wanted to write something that would have a Pink Floyd type feel". The lyrics by singer Eddie Vedder concern his worries on mortality and what the future holds for the next generation.
