Versions
Even Deeper
This is the original version available on The Fragile. Beginning slowly with layers of percussion and deep synthesizers, Reznor's vocals begin subdued, eventually opening up into a howl for the louder, guitar-driven chorus. Each of the three distinct sections of the song are demarked by quiet, atmospheric breaks, a similar approach as the one used in "Reptile." The predominantly instrumental bridge and coda sections are heavy on mood, featuring violin. 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 (Love Dub)
Also known as Even Deeper (Telefon Tel Aviv Love Dub), 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, yet was performed live for years beforehand. It incorporates the atmospheric sounds that were featured on the intro to the original, but it also layers glitchy manipulations of other layers as well. While this version completely leaves out any of the original guitar parts, it features a delayed and reverbed guitar part, some synthesizers, and an additional piano line. A CD-quality MP3 version of the track was uploaded by Reznor on remix.nin.com.
Live
Often, the wordless backing vocals during the second chorus are played by a keyboard instead of being sung. As well, the instrumental middle section tends to last about half as many measures as in the original. Since the Live: With Teeth tour, the last segment of the song has been sung with sparser lyrics.
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All the hands of hope have withdrawn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
