Perfume Genius has shared a new video for “Some Dream” from May’s Set My Heart on Fire Immediately. The visual, directed by Charles Grant and Hunter Ray Barker, stars Marc LeBlanc as Pigman. In the clip, LeBlanc does manual labor, plays piano, uses his laptop, and more. Watch below.

In a statement, Perfume Genius said:

The song is about the sort of dream world I keep myself in, in order to write. Sometimes I wonder if there will be real world costs for staying there too long. I don’t want to pick my head up after a bunch of years go by and see a bunch of songs but nobody to love.

Charles Grant added:

I’ve loved Mike [Hadreas]’ music for a long time. Marc LeBlanc is the star of the video—he plays the pigman. He’s an amazing actor and his performance in combination with how powerful and emotional Mike’s music is gave this whole project such amazing energy and spirit. Hunter and I are really grateful to have added to Mike’s creative world in a way that feels uniquely true to him, us, and Marc all at once…. We are all pigs.
