We had a lot of fun making this one and hope you enjoy it too.In March 2024, "Eyes Closed" was first teased following the latest release of "Children of the Sky (a Starfield song)" through various snippets, following secret codes and riddles to solve through their official website.

Another snippet was released on March 27, alongside a team-based event that sorted fans into respective teams (Croyants, Reveurs, or Guerriers) based on their choices on a quick survey.

[citation needed] Directed by Andrew Donoho, the video follows Imagine Dragons lead singer Dan Reynolds, who appears to wake up from death—emerging from piles of sand—in a strange world, where he encounters ancient ruins.

These strange-looking ruins turn out to be a dream from his subconscious spinning a near-death experience, from the aftermath of a car crash.
