}}'''"Ahead Of Ourselves"''' is the second track on the 2018 LP ''[[Bad Witch]]''. It and "[[Play The Goddamned Part]]" were made available to listen to on May 19, 2018, at special listening stations provided at "The Physical World" ticket presale for fans in attendance.
==Live==
"Ahead Of Ourselves" debuted live on [[2018/06/16_Las_Vegas,_NV|June 16, 2018]] at The Joint in Las Vegas, the only song on ''[[Bad Witch]]'' to be performed live before its official release ("[[God Break Down The Door]]" had been released as a single beforehand). It appeared at all but one show on the [[Europe + Asia 2018]] tour, and at a majority on the [[Cold And Black And Infinite Tour]], usually following on from "[[Shit Mirror]]." ==Trivia==The line "celebration of ignorance" from the song finds its origins all the way back to the 2005 ''[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]]'' lyric poster, in the form of an early version of "[[The Warning (With Teeth song)|The Warning]]." The line is also found in the book ''The Demon-Haunted World: Science As A Candle In The Dark'' by Carl Sagan, but it is not known if there is a legitimate connection. ==Music Video==[[Image:Aheadofourselves.png|thumb|Frame from the video]]A live video[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frMcQmyzUZM] was posted to the official [[Nine Inch Nails]] YouTube account on Oct 22, 2018. It was directed by Brook Linder.
