I'm becoming less to find as days go by
Fading away well you might say I'm losing focus
Kind of drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself

Sometimes I think I can see right through myself

Less concerned about fitting into the world
Your world that is cause it doesn't really matter anymore
No it doesn't really matter anymore
None of this really matters anymore
Yes I am alone but then again I always was
As far back as I can tell I think it's maybe it's because
Because you were never really real to begin
I just made you up to hurt myself (repeat x5)
And it worked, yes it did

There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me
Only (repeat x3)

Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye
And it turned out to be a scab
And had this funny feeling like I just knew it was something bad
I just couldn't leave it alone
I kept picking at that scab
Like it was doorway trying to seal itself shut
But climbed through

Now I'm somewhere I am not supposed to be
And I can see things I know I really shouldn't see
And now why and now I know why
Things aren't as pretty on the inside

There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me
Only (repeat x6)

funky drumintro and yes it had kind of an 80's disco vibe to it. Trent's vocals aren't that good in the song but overal it's one off the better tracks on this album. There are some Very cool guitarparts in the song

the track sounds more like spoken word put to a beat - which i highly enjoy... the 80s effects and synth are amazing, along with the hard hitting guitar parts... another cool track off the album....

Love it. I think this is my favorite on the new album, if for no other reason than the line "Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye"... :)

I love how how he speaks the lyrics rather than sings them. This album is almost better than the Fragile.

It's sort of got a playful quality in the way that he speaks the words, but the song meshes together quite well. Not my favorite, but a very good song nonetheless.

this song is really good..idk why some people are trying to say reznor's "selling-out" he's always done just what he wants and only that he just happens to want the same thing as alot of people
