===Non-Entity===This studio-recorded version finally saw the light of day on March 20, 2009, when it was included on the ''NINJA 2009 Summer Tour Sampler'' EP. Slow and groove-oriented, its instrumentation is simple, maintaining use of live drums, bass, guitar and vocals. It features a prominent whine similar to the one used in "[[Home]]," and is structured much like "[[The Line Begins To Blur]]," though Reznor does not yell during the verses. Its original recording dates back to the ''With Teeth'' sessions, as this was the only time Dave Grohl recorded drum tracks for the band. ===Non-Entity (acousticAcoustic)===Performed at the ReactNOW! benefit, this was the first version of the song to be publicly performed. It features Reznor on piano and vocals with a pre-recorded drum beatmachine backing him. It was made available for purchase via the now defunct Sony Connect service as an encrypted OMA download with proceeds going toward charities aiding those affected by Hurricane Katrina.

"Non-Entity" has bee been performed live on the Live: With Teeth tour. For the 2006 summer leg, a cage of LED lights was lowered in front of the stage, with purple lights behaving like tentacles responding to the music. At the [[Bridge School Benefit]] concert in October of 2006, Reznor performed the song backed by a string quartet. It was brought back to the setlist in the [[NIN/JA Tour]].

== Lyrics ==

Every single thing I believe isn’t isn't true Missing in the a maze of monochrome How did I get here, how How can I go home?

The echoes in my eyes, of Of all they used to see Burning down the world, the The ashes and debris And all that’s that's left to of me, non Non-entity...

Try to stand the in line, try Try to obey The ghost ghosts of what I was keeps keep getting in the way Staring at the sun, I’m blinded Blinded by the light Now I’m I'm afraid I’m I'm fading out of sight

The echoes in my eyes, of Of all they used to see Burning down the world, the ashes Ashes and debris And all that’s that's left of you, and And all that’s that's left of me All have washed away, non Non-entity.. The word "echoes" appears misspelled as "echos" in the lyrics contained in the official download file.
