The Video
A video was released, using the "(short)" remix of the song, which featured two girls dancing with each other at the beginning, cutting to a black and white footage of a woman, naked except for what looks like straps to spelunking gear and a halogen lamp, walking a wrist bound Trent Reznor with a bag over his head through what looks like an industrial warehouse complex and eventually to strap him into a large rotary harness where she spins him throughout the video. These scenes are intercut with two young gay lovers who eventually fight, a man and woman wearing ritualistic dressings and dancing, as well as visuals of a pierced penis and clitoris, all reflecting the song's dark, sexual aspects.
Lyrics
You give me the reason
You give me control
I gave you my Purity
My Purity you stole
Did you think I wouldn’t recognize this compromise
Am I just to stupid to realize
Stale incense old sweat and lies lies lies
It comes down to this
Your kiss
Your fist
And your strain
It gets under my skin
Within
Take in
The extent of my sin
You give me the anger
You give me the nerve
Carry out my sentence
I get what I deserve
I’m just an effigy to be defaced
To be disgraced
Your need for me has been replaced
And if I can’t have everything well then just give me a taste
It comes down to this
Your kiss
Your fist
And your strain
It gets under my skin
Within
Take in
The extent of my sin
