==Versions==
===Please===
This is the original album version as it appears on the CD and vinyl editions of ''The Fragile.''Flowing directly either from the introduction (CD) or ending (vinyl) of "[[10 Miles High]]," it opens immediately with the verse drum loop, synthesized bass, and manipulated guitars for eight bars before reducing to the first verse, accompanying Reznor's vocals with only the drum loop and a bass riff. Other synthesizer and guitar layers join in to lead into the pre-chorus, with Reznor accompanying himself as a backing vocalist. The chorus is sung low, almost spoken over a decaying synthesizer note, leading into the second verse and pre-chorus. The final chorus is extended, featuring a reversed string loop. The song stops as suddenly as it began.
===Please (+appendageInstrumental)===Found Released exclusively through Apple Music, then later on the audio cassette version of ''The Fragile,: Deviations 1.'' this version adds an extra section ===Please (+Appendage)===Exclusive to the end of the originalcassette version, this version combines "Please" with harsher electronic sounds and the lyrics "never be enough[[+Appendage]]" repeated.
==Live==
The song was performed several times during the Fragility v1.0 and With Teeth Spring Arena tours. It was also performed in soundchecks for [[Performance 2007]]. "+Appendage" [[NIN songs never played live|has never been played live]].
==Lyrics==
Time starts slowing down
Sink until I drown
(Please) I don’t don't ever want to make it stop
And it keeps repeating
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, but it just left me dead
(Well guess what?)
The world is over and I realized realize it was all in my head
Now everything is clear
I erase the fear
I can disappear
(Please) I don’t don't ever want to make it stop
You can never leave me
Will you please complete me?
Never be enough
To fill me up
The third lyric line of the first verse was changed on the actual recording:
Push it away but it all comes back again
The sixth line of the second verse only appears in the album booklet for ''The Fragile''.
