"1,000,000" is the second track of the Nine Inch Nails album The Slip. The work fits directly onto the end of 999,999, and seems to bridge the two styles of the albums Ghosts IâIV and The Slip. The accompanying artwork is constructed of a '1' and six '0's. Also the one could possibly be a person slipping off the edge of a building, represented by the stack of zero's. This would coincide with the lyrics.

Lyrics
Kind of hard
Hard to see
When you crawl
On your hands and your knees
With your face
In the trough
Wait your turn
While they finish you off
Donât know when it started
Donât know how
Should have found out
Should have happened by now
Got these lines
On my face
After all this time
And I still havenât found my place
I jump from every rooftop
So high so far to fall
I feel a million miles away
I donât feel any thing at all
I wake up
On the floor
Start it up again
Like it matters anymore
I donât know
If it does
Is this really all
That there ever was?
Put the gun
In my mouth
Close your eyes
Blow my fucking brains out
Pretty patterns
On the floor
Thatâs enough for you
But I still need more
I jump from every rooftop
So high so far to fall
I feel a million miles away
I donât feel any thing at all
