More The song was released to comeradio stations simultaneously around 2:30pm EST on April 22, 2008, being mastered only the day before, and was then made available as a free download via discipline.nin.com, which eventually redirected to [[theslip.nin.com]].

has been played ==About=="Discipline" is the first radio single from NIN since becoming an independent recording act, following their final release under a major record label, 2007's ''[[Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D]].'' Due to the advertisement and short notice of the release, the song was posted on YouTube almost immediately after release. The [[Multitracks|multitrack files]] for this track were released at [[Remix.nin.com|remix.nin.com]]. The track art resembles a lowercase 'd'. It also resembles a person sitting with their knees drawn up to their chest, facing to the left. Lastly, the shape also resembles the portion of the [[Media:800x600.jpg|Art is Resistance logo]] that contains the star. For the physical release booklet, the red line on the "Discipline" artwork continues over to the opposite lyrics page crossing over the phrase "I cannot help myself". ==Appearances=====Halos===*''The Slip'' ===Other===*''[[The Definitive NIN - The Singles]]'' - online playlist(s); not on original Seed release* <i>Fringe</i>: Season 1: Midnight (04/28/09) [http://www.fm1021milwaukeetvrage.com/Fringe/episodes/1064799600/] ==Versions=====Discipline (MP3 download version)===The original download version is 4:29 in length and fades out at the end. ===Discipline (Album version)===The version on ''The Slip'' is 4:19 and starts to fade out at the end, but then abruptly cuts off as it segues into "[[Echoplex]]."

It features on ''The Slip'', on a DVD of rehearsal footage. Its ending is the same as the multitrack combined version, but shorter. ==Live==This song made its live debut at the [[2008/07/19 Los Angeles, CA|dress rehearsal show]] of the [[Lights In The Sky Tour]]. It was a staple that year and remained a feature throughout the [[Wave Goodbye Tour]] the following year, but has not been played since then. There are no significant changes from the album version, save an extended outro.

Am I- Am I so still tough enough? Feels like I'm running I’m wearing down Is my viscousness losing viciousness Losing ground? Am I taking too much? Did I cross the a line? I'm need my role in a wilderness That I can't define.this Very clearly defined

You know once I start, I cannot help myself

You know And now it's starting up Feels feels like I'm losing touch
