}}'''"Wish"''' is the second track on 1992's ''[[Broken]]'' EP, and displays that era's characteristic aggression and abrasive guitar attack. The song won a Grammy Award for "Best Metal Performance." It keeps with the general mood of the ''Broken'' EP and includes numerous angry and self-deprecating lyrical passages, but unlike other songs, also shows a desire for something more.
This is the original album version. Opening with percussion and noise loops, Reznor's quick verses work in call-and-response with an equally quick distorted guitar attack. Each verse eventually opens up into a sustained chorus based around guitar power chords. The synthesizer-driven bridge introduces a new chord progression (including whispers of the final two lines of lyrics) before returning to the verse guitar parts, a final chorus, and a coda made of the verse guitar parts again, which suddenly cut off to a quiet, ascending white noise manipulation that segues into "[[Last]]."

'''''Running Time: 3:37'''''
This a censored version of the original, distributed on a promo to U.S. radio stations. The censorship is accomplished by completely silencing music when a bad word is said. ===Wish (Radio Edit)==='''''Running Time: 3:51''''' This a censored version of the original, distributed exclusively on 7" promo vinyl to U.K. radio stations. The censorship is accomplished by word/sound substitution when a bad word is said. Instead of cutting off abruptly, the ending guitar riff is repeated to fade-out, resulting in the longer runtime.
