"''''''Only" '''''' is the eighth track 8 from on the 2005 album ''[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]]. '' It was released as a [[Only (halo)|single]] in summer 2005, receiving the designation of [[Halo]] 20. It is known for it's upbeat and synthesizer-driven instrumentation, and casual lyric delivery, reminiscent of 1989's [[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]. "Only" was the second song that saw release of the master tracks for fan remixes.

Like most NIN songs, the true inspiration for the lyrics has never been revealed. The lyrics suggest that this song is about internal identity struggles, possibly relating to split personalities. Themes in this song are similar to the film "''Fight Club", '' which was directed by [[David Fincher]], who directed the music video for this song.

"Only " contains a verse that is very similar to a verse in the 1989 song "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]. "

The video for "Only" was direct directed by [[David Fincher]] and is largly created using advanced CGI. It features a desk with a laptop(A 17" Mac PowerBook), speakers, and a variety of 'office toysan Einstein' s Cradle and PinPressions being brought to life and animated by the music. The video starts with a hand pressing the space bar on the computer, which starts its music program (iTunes with the Visualizer turned on). The Einstein's Cradle begins to sawy to the beat as ripples appear in a cup of coffee. [[Trent Reznor]] appears in the PinPressions, singing the song. As it gets to the second verse, the songs builds and the vibrations get more intense. Reznor seems to almost break out of the PinPressions as the balls on the Einstein's Cradle sway almost uncontrollably. The ripples in the coffee also have greater frequency. Finally an apple falls out of a neaby basket as Reznor disappears and the scene dies down. At the very end, a blurry image of a car can be seen driving away. The video was almost entirely computer-animated. It is reported that the only part that was live-action ws the hand at the very beginning of the video.

I'm I’m becoming less defined, as As days go by Fading away, well you (You might say I'm ) I’m losing focus Kind of drifting into the abstract in In terms of how I see myself Sometimes, I think I can see right through myself Sometimes, I think I can see right through myself Sometimes, I can see right through myself

Less concerned, about fitting into the world Your world , that is, cause it doesn't really matter anymore (No, Because it doesn't doesn’t really matter anymore) No, it doesn't really matter anymoreAnymore

Yes, I am alone, but But then again I always was As far back as I can tell, I think maybe it's it’s because Because you were never really real to begin with I just made you up to hurt myself I just made you up to To hurt myself Yeah, and I just made you up to hurt myself I just made you up to hurt myself Yeah, and I just made you up to hurt myself

Yes it did!  There is no you There is only me There is no fucking you There is only me Only

There is no you, there is only me There is no you, there is only me There is no fucking you, there is only me There is no fucking you, there is only me Only (x4) [Pt. 2] Well, the tiniest little dot caught my eye

I just couldn't leave it alone And I kept picking at that scab It Like it was a doorway trying to seal itself shut

Now And now I'm somewhere I am not supposed to be

And now Now I know why now, And now I know why Things aren't as pretty on On the inside

There is no you, there is only me There is no you, there is only me There is no fucking you, there is only me There is no fucking you, there is only me Only Only (x8)
