The sky is ===Non-Entity (Demo)===A demo for "Non-Entity" evidently exists on a pre-release version of ''With Teeth'' that has not the same shade of bluebeen shared.
Every single thing I believe isn’t true===Non-Entity (ReAct Now version)===Performed at the [[2005/09/09 Los Angeles, CA|ReAct Now benefit]], this was the first version of the song to be publicly performed. It features Reznor on piano and vocals with a beats played from a boombox backing him.

Missing in ===Non-Entity (''Beside You In Time'')===This live version is among the maze of monochromebonus footage contained on ''Beside You In Time''.
How did I get here==Live==While "Non-Entity" was debuted by Reznor solo at the [[2005/09/09 Los Angeles, how can I go homeCA|ReAct Now benefit]], its full-band debut was at the [[2006/05/22 Los Angeles, CA|KROQ Breakfast show]]. For the 2006 summer leg of the Live: With Teeth tour, a cage of LED lights was lowered in front of the stage, with purple lights behaving like tentacles responding to the music. At the [[Bridge School Benefit]] concert in October of 2006, Reznor performed the song backed by a string quartet. It was brought back to the setlist in the [[NIN/JA Tour]].

==Versions==
===Non-Entity===
This studio-recorded version finally saw the light of day on March 20, 2009, when it was included on the ''NINJA 2009 Summer Tour Sampler'' EP. Slow and groove-oriented, its instrumentation is simple, maintaining use of live drums, bass, guitar and vocals. It features a prominent whine similar to the one used in "[[Home]]", and is structured much like "[[The Line Begins To Blur]]", though Reznor does not yell during the verses. Its original recording dates back to the ''With Teeth'' sessions.
==Lyrics==
The sky is not the same shade of blue
Every single thing
I believe isn't true
Missing in a maze of monochrome
How did I get here
How can I go home?
The echoes in my eyes
Of all they used to see
Burning down the world
The ashes and debris
And all that's left of me
Non-entity
Try to stand in line
Try to obey
The ghosts of what I was keep getting in the way
Staring at the sun
Blinded by the light
Now I'm afraid I'm fading out of sight
The echoes in my eyes
Of all they used to see
Burning down the world
Ashes and debris
And all that's left of you
And all that's left of me
All have washed away
Non-entity
The word "echoes " appears misspelled as "echos" in my eyes, of all they used to seethe lyrics contained in the official download file.
