About

You Know What You Are? is the second track from 2005's With Teeth. It is a very aggressive and upbeat song, featuring a gang-shouting chorus and heavy guitar tracks. A remix of this song by Clint Mansell appeared on the Doom soundtrack, and played during of end credits of that movie. The title strongly resembles a track on the Head Like A Hole single, entitled "You Know Who You Are."

Performed Live

YKWYA has become a staple of Nine Inch Nails' live performances. The song, when performed live, sounds very similar to the album version. The only big differences are more intense guitar sounds and improvisational soloing by Aaron North during the bridge.

Lyrics

I tried to sneak myself through, tried to get to the other side
I had to patch up the cracks and the holes that I have to hide
For a little bit of time even made it work okay
Just long enough to really make it hurt
When they figured me out and it all just rotted away

[Chorus:]
Don't you fucking know what you are? [x3]
Go on get back to where you belong!

You better take a good look cause I'm full of shit
With every bit of my heart I've tried to believe in it
You can dress it all up, you can try to pretend
But you can't change anything
You can't change anything
In the end

[Chorus] 
Remember where you came from, remember what you are [x9]

Don't you fucking know what you are?
Go on get back to where you belong!

[x4]
