Notably hard to write, [[Trent Reznor]] has expressed dissatisfaction with the song[https://www.theninhotline.com/archives/articles/display/555] and thinks it's by far the worst song he's ever done. He has also stated it's the one song he will not play live anymore, though as with anything, this is subject to change. The song references "[[Down In It (1988song) - |Down In It]]" by quoting its beat and drum patch during the bridge. ===Song Credits===*Production: Trent Reznor, [[John Fryer]]*Engineering: John Fryer, [[Keith LeBlanc]], Kennan Keating, Ken Quartarone*Mix: John Fryer, Trent Reznor, Keith LeBlanc ==Appearances=====Halos===*''Pretty Hate Tour Machine'' ===Other===*''[[Purest Feeling (1990halo) <br> Retired|Purest Feeling]]''}}*''[[Demos & Remixes]]''

==AboutVersions=="===Kinda I Want To" is ===Beginning with what sounds like garbled cries, the sixth track on [[''Pretty Hate Machine'' is perhaps the most solely beat-driven song on the album, lacking a clear melody and utilizing a lot of [[samples]], and has ties loops (similar to lust, though it's unclear exactly what the speaker wants to do or whom they want to do it with. Notably hard to write, '[[Trent ReznorYear Zero]] has always been very unsatisified with ''). The middle section samples the song drum beat, similar guitar work, and thinks it's some vocals from "Down In It".

*With a completely different arrangement and lead melody, less distorted audio samples and a much more upbeat feel, this demo version from the ''Demos & Remixes'' [[Purest Feelingbootlegs|bootleg]] (Demo)*resembles early 80's house music more than its "breakbeat"-esque counterpart from ''Pretty Hate Machine.'' The lyrics are the same as the final version, but feature an additional bridge in the middle wherein Reznor repeats the line "Why does it have to be this way?" over and over, harmonizing with himself. The ending also features a rapidly strumming acoustic guitar, before the entire song fades into quiet synths. The ascending synth melody that runs through the final third of the track is very similar to the one heard during the bridge of "[[Purest Feeling II]] Into The Void (Demosong)*[[Pretty Hate Machine|Into The Void]]".

I can’t can't shake this feeling from my head There’s There's a devil sleeping in my bed He’s He's watching you from across the way

I know it’s it's not the right thing And I know it’s it's not the good thing

I’m I'm not sure of what I should do When everything I’m I'm thinking of is you

Maybe God will over cover up His eyes

I know it’s it's not the right thing And I know it’s it's not the good thing

We can pretend it’s alrightit's all right What’s What's the price I pay? I don’t don't care what they say

I want to (I’ll I'll take my chance tonight)
