The idea of the narrator being or feeling "a million miles away," as sung in this song during the chorus, seems to reference or relate to the same idea as sung first in "[[Hurt (song)|Hurt]]"." It would also be mentioned again in "[[All The Love In The World]]"." Whether the three songs are all specifically related beyond [[Recurring_lyrics#A_Million_Miles_Away|repetition of the phrase]] is publicly unverified.

Also the one could possibly be a person slipping off the edge of a building, represented by the stack of zeroes. This would coincide with the lyrics.

===1,000,000===
This is the original album version. The song shares a similar structure with "[[The Collector]]"," notably how the songs begin, each with a drumming intro and following with a string instrument ("The Collector" had a bass while "1,000,000" has a guitar) which then leads into the lyrics. Perhaps its most notable feature is its structure, which separates the final chorus from the coda via [[Trent Reznor]]'s lone voice and ensuing silence before drums and guitar blast back in. Its sudden ending leads immediately into "[[Letting You]]"."
===1,000,000 (Live At Rehearsals)===
"1,000,000" continued to be played throughout the [[Wave Goodbye Tour]], appearing at about half of the shows throughout the setlist. A new live introduction was performed on the Australian dates, consisting of "[[Corona Radiata]]"-like synthesizer atmospherics surrounding a drum loop from the studio version of "1,000,000" that began at an extremely slow tempo and gradually sped up, eventually leading into the song's normal introduction. This intro was included in an HD video filmed from the stage by Rob Sheridan on the tour and subsequently shared via the official NIN Vimeo account.
From the [[NIN 2013 Festival Tour]] onward, [[Robin Finck]] would play the lead guitar part on the synthesizer. On the [[NIN 2013-2014|''Hesitation Marks'' touring cycle]], "1,000,000" was played at the vast majority of shows, but became infrequent in [[NIN 2017-2018|2017 and 2018]].
