"Terrible Lie" is often the opening song of Nine Inch Nails shows following the intro tapean introduction, which may be "[[Now I'm Nothing]]" ([[Lollapalooza]] '91, [[Wave_Goodbye_Tour#NIN. Unlike the album 2FJA_2009|NIN/JA 2009]]) or, often, a manipulated pre-recorded version where a keyboard and bass melody is present throughout the entire chorus, the of "[[Pinion]]." The live version typically omits the melody keyboard and bass harmony for the first half of the first chorus, a feature of the [[Terrible_Lie#Terrible_Lie_.28Sympathetic_Mix.29|Sympathetic mix]]. The ending of the song is extended when performed live and is often concluded with Reznor screaming "you promised me," followed by a brief sample of the words "will you forgive me?" heard clearly in [http://www.4shared.com/file/101153106/9c4183de/forgiveme_sample_shallowgrave.html this] example (from the bootleg Shallow Grave). At the end of the song, the band has been known to cause a little bit of instrument destruction (though not always). During the [[Live: With Teeth]] tours, [[Aaron North]] plays a short solo during the last few moments of the song. This is a short, three note repeating solo.
