Versions
Even Deeper
This is the original version available on The Fragile. On the vinyl version, the middle instrumental section is extended by a few bars, and the end does not feature "Pilgrimage" fading in.
Even Deeper (Telefon Tel Aviv Remix)
This remix was released on May 15, 2007 on an album for the group Telefon Tel Aviv, titled Telefon Tel Aviv—Remixes Compiled, along with remixes of other various songs. This remix still incorporates the atmospheric sounds that were featured on the intro to the original, but it also layers on multiple glitchy electronica-type noises as well. While this version completely leaves out any of the original guitar parts, it features a delayed and reverbed guitar part, a couple synth loops and an additional piano piece. It is a pure instrumental track besides Reznor's distorted voice in the background towards the end. A CD-quality MP3 version of the track was uploaded by Reznor on remix.nin.com. The ID3 tags list the song's genre as "*gay*".
Live
The nah-nah-na-na-nah-nah's during the second chorus are played by a keyboard instead of with vocals. Since the Live: With Teeth tour, the last segment of this song ("I'm straight... I won't crack...") has been sung with sparser lyrics.
Miscellaneous
Reznor has said that "Even Deeper" is one of his favorites from The Fragile.
Lyrics
I woke up today
To find myself in another place
With a trail of my footprints
From where I ran away
Seems everything I heard just might be true
And you know me
(Well you think you do)
Sometimes, I have everything—
Yet I wish I felt something
Do you know how far this has gone?
Just how damaged have I become?
When I think I can overcome
It runs even deeper
In a dream I'm a different me
With a perfect you
We fit perfectly
And for once in my life I feel complete—
And I still want to ruin it
Afraid to look
As clear as day
This plan has long been underway
I hear them call
I cannot stay
The voice inviting me away
Do you know how far this has gone?
Just how damaged have I become?
When I think I can overcome
It runs even deeper
Everything that matters is gone
All the hands of hope have withdrawn
Could you try to help me hang on
It runs…
I'm straight
I won't crack
On my way
And I can't turn back
I'm okay
I'm on track
On my way
And I can't turn back
I stayed
On this track
Gone too far
And I can't come back
I stayed
On this track
Lost my way
Can't come back
