===While I'm Still Here (Breyer P-Orridge 'Howler' Remix)===
'''''Running Time: 7:03''''' This remix contains dialog snippets of Genesis and Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge. It begins with the sound of Howler Monkeys at the LA Zoo, which plays throughout the track. Quarter note kicks replace the staccato beat of the original version. An instrumentally minimalistic track, other notable sound effects include a Tibetan Thighbone Trumpet which sounds in the second verse. Unofficial transcription:
Beginning (spoken by Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge):
==Live==
This song debuted live on the [[2013/09/28 St. Paul, MN|first night]] of the [[Tension 2013 Tour]], and appeared at most of the shows on that tour, transitioning straight into "[[Black Noise]]". It featured backing vocals by [[Lisa Fischer]] and [[Sharlotte Gibson]]. "While I'm Still Here" has not been played since.
==Lyrics==
While we can
Remember when
Stay with me
Hold me near
While I'm still here
The portion of the final chorus that says:
We always were
Yes, even then
Was changed in the final recording to:
Always were, yeah
Even then
