"'''My Violent Heart'''" is the eighth track and was the first song to leak from the 2007 release ''[[Year Zero]]''. It begins with looping percussion and soon enough vocals begin. Just before the chorus, a line of synth plays as a climax builds. The chorus contains mechanical and robotic noises. ===World of Year Zero reference===
===The 'Presence' Reference===
===Leak===At the [[2007/02/12|February 12th, 2007]] [[Nine Inch Nails |Nine Inch Nails]] concert in Lisbon, Portugal, a plain-looking USB flash drive was found in a bathroom stall. It was later found to hold a single MP3 file with the title "My Violent Heart". The numeric sequence "[[24.3.2]]" was found within the MP3's ID3 tag of the leaked copy.

[[Multitracks]] for this song were released in [http://remix.nin.com raw WAV, GarageBand and Ableton Live formats] via [[remix.nin.com]]. The song's drum pattern is very similar to that of "[[God Given]]".

An amazing discovery was made while analyzing the content of the leaked MP3. In the last few seconds of the song there is an awkward bit of static. Running the audio file through an audio spectrometer, a distinct image was found within the static. It is indeed "[[The Presence]]" from the ''[[Year Zero]]'' concept. In the album version of the song, the static and image are not present. They are at the end of [[The Warning (Year Zero song)|The Warning]].

===My Violent Heart (World of Year Zero version)===This is the album version of the song has . It begins with looping percussion and vocals soon enter. Just before the static at the end chorus, a synthesizer plays as a climax builds. The chorus contains mechanical and robotic noises layered in a very industrial way, creating a very rhythmic wall of sound. The bridge of the song, revealing The Presencecontains guitar parts that have been heavily edited and chopped up.
===My Violent Heart (Year Zero versionInstrumental)==='''''Running Time: 4:24''''' This unmastered vocal-less mix was released by [[Trent Reznor]] through his remix.nin.com account. ===My Violent Heart (Leak Version)===This version of the song does not have has the static at the end of the song, revealing "The Presence". ===My Violent Heart: PRM Dance Mix==='''''Running Time: 2:34''''' This fan mix by Pirate Robot Midget was initially posted at [http://www.ninremixes.com NIN Remixes] and can be heard on ''Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D.'' It contains a more dance-oriented beat than the album original and has a considerably shorter running time than the album original. Interestingly enough, the version that appears on ''Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D'' has some sound elements not heard in the original remix, the most noticeable of which is a beeping noise heard in the background. This sound is almost reminiscent of an ECG (electrocardiograph) machine commonly found in hospitals.====Song Credits====*Remix and additional production by Pirate Robot Midget at Fakefriends Studio, Netherlands ==Live=="My Violent Heart" [[NIN songs never played live|has never been played live]], the only ''Year Zero'' song with vocals to have not been performed.
