When performed live with NIN on the Dissonance Tour, these lyrics were replaced with lines from "Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)"," which always followed this song:
She had an horror of rooms she was tired you can't hide beat
When I looked in her eyes they were blue but nobody home
Well she could've been a killer if she didn't walk the way she do, and she do
She opened strange doors that we'd never close again
During the Cold And Black And Infinite Tour, lyrics from "God Break Down The Door" and (slightly modified) lyrics from "Over And Out" were sung in a similar way as the above "Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)":
God break down the door
God break down the door
My time is running out
I don't know what I'm waiting for
