The lyrics may address [[Trent Reznor]] coming back from his addictions as a humbled person.
According to at least one media promo listening[http://theninhotline.net/archives/articles/manager/display_article.php?id=2], the working title for the song was slightly longer, appearing as "Getting Smaller Every Day."
==Versions==
===Getting Smaller===
This is the only original album version currently available. Crossfading in from the end of "[[Only (song)|Only]]," it begins with frantic and seemingly random distorted guitar playing, punctured by the chorus guitar riff. Grohl's live drums soon begin accompanying, leading into the first verse, accompanied by a different guitar riff. The song opens up in volume and layering for the choruses, their lyrics yelled out by Reznor with a delay effect. A third different guitar riff leads the bridge, which also features layered atmospheric synthesizers over the drum beat that build in intensity and lead into the final chorus. ===Getting Smaller (Instrumental)==='''''Running Time: 3:47''''' Released exclusively through Apple Music.
==Live==
"Getting Smaller" was played live on the [[Live: With Teeth]] tour in 2005-06, but was a setlist rarity. It was also played at least once during the [[Lights In The Sky Tour]].
