"Demon Seed" is the tenth and final song on the Nine Inch Nails album The Slip. It contains the same overlapped lyrical style as "The Greater Good" and "The New Flesh," and has a rhythm that resembles the one heard in "38 Ghosts." Its time signature is 6/4, as Trent Reznor can be heard indicating it at a couple points in the song.
The image associated with this song appears to be a four part image of a square becoming more complete or "growing," much like the lyrics portray something growing inside of the narrator. It should also be noted that the red lines seen in the previous pictures are all over, as if they have exploded out of control.
This is the only song from the album that has the different sections of the song numbered, perhaps pointing out cycles or phases. Also, similar to "The Greater Good", there are lyrics provided that are not included in the album version, these lyrics being section 3.

Lyrics
1. It keeps growing And I can feel it breathe I have been trying To behave myself It keeps growing And I can feel it breathe I have been trying To tolerate you 2. Well I am reaching the point Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah 3. I thought maybe I thought this would go away But it continues The only constant Every day Stronger 4. I will use my voice And I will use my fist To destroy Everything I can 5. Now I know What this is all about Now I know Exactly what I am 6. There is a seed Inside of me That makes me
It seems that all of verse 3 and the last line of verse 6 didn't make it into the final studio cut.
