"Burning Bright (Field On Fire)" is the fifth track on the 2016 EP Not The Actual Events. The song features Dave Navarro of Jane's Addiction on guitar. It is worth noting that the final line, "I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore," is also the final line of "We Fade Away" by How To Destroy Angels, with the omission of the words "seem to".
“Burning Bright” was released one week after NIN announced Not the Actual Events. It is a typically heavy, brooding track about destruction and struggle, fitting with Reznor’s statement about the EP: "It’s an unfriendly, fairly impenetrable record that we needed to make."

A low-concept music video, much like the one for "God Break Down The Door", was posted to the official NIN YouTube account. The audio is simply accompanied by rapidly shifting, choppy black and white static.
