Versions

In Two

This is the only known version. Beginning with quiet synth layers, the verses open with busy drum loops and repetitive bass with manipulated vocals. These are broken up by layers of high-pitched vocals backed by piano between the first two verses, which later become the prominent features of the chorus, though augmented by a big, simple beat. The song then cuts to a quiet buildup reminiscent of dynamic bridges in songs like "Mr. Self Destruct" and "With Teeth," led by a bassline of 8th notes, atmosphere layers, distant vocals and guitar. They explode into a return to the chorus beat, deep bass and rhinocerous-esque 'swarm' guitar soloing, all of which end the song suddenly and lead directly into "While I'm Still Here."

Lyrics

Split,
Split in to,
Something else
Shed,
Precious skin,
Save yourself
We,
Have to hurt,
What you were
Yes,
Yes of course,
It's gonna hurt
Nature is violent
The very nature of the beast is violent
N-n-n-now know that was someone else
N-n-n-now know that wasn't me, no
It's getting harder to tell the two of you apart
It's getting harder to tell the two of you apart
I can't believe they can ever remember which one you are
It's getting harder to tell the two of you apart
Slide,
Just become,
Your disease
Leave,
Them behind,
You are free
Hate,
What you want,
You deserve
Yes,
Yes of course,
This is going to hurt
It's getting harder to tell the two of you apart
It's getting harder to tell the two of you apart
I can't believe they can ever remember which one you are
It's getting harder to tell the two of you apart
I just don't know anymore(x10)
I just don't know
