}}'''"Into The Void"''' is the second track on the Right side of the double album ''[[The Fragile (halo)|The Fragile]].'' It was featured heavily in many promos for the album, although it was only released as a single in Australia. The track "Slipping Away" is an extended and remixed form of an earlier version of this song, and is included on the remix album ''[[Things Falling Apart]].''The song was featured in the 2000 film ''Final Destination'' and the franchise is named after the song's lyrics.
===Musical Themes===
==Versions==
===Into The Void===
This is the original album version. Quietly transitioning from "[[The Way Out Is Through]]," it begins by building layers of percussion and melody before launching into the main body of the song, featuring a danceable beat loop and synthesized bassline. [[Trent Reznor]]'s layered vocals are a prominent feature of the track, overlapping through the wordless choruses, during which they are joined by sustaining guitars playing a noisy, descending guitar part. This riff is similar in structure to the one at the peak of "[[The Mark Has Been Made]]." The instrumental bridge of the song stops suddenly, only to re-emerge soon after with a squealing synthesizer solo. A final, extended chorus ends the song, with a trademark [[Nine Inch Nails]] wall-of-sound buildup around the lyric "Tried to save myself, but myself keeps slipping away". This line is the final moment of the song, sung ''a capella.''
===Into The Void (Instrumental)===
This remix, on ''Things Falling Apart,'' contains many musical and rhythmic references to "Into The Void," but the lyrics consist solely of different vocal takes of the lines "I keep slipping away" and "Tried to save myself." Building instrumentally from percussive loops and guitars, a brief stop introduces the lyrics. Consistent in its thumping beat throughout the track, it continues to build through different melodies and synthesizer layers, eventually being overcome by distorted layers of guitar. It segues directly into the quieter "[[The Great Collapse]]."
