===The Mark Has Been Made===
The piece consists of a dark and quiet introduction, featuring a beat with a wah effect, deep synthesizers, strings, and guitar. This section ends suddenly, quickly transitioning to a lone wah guitar melody. It is soon joined by a loud beat and percussive bass and guitar and the return of the guitar melody from the first section. This is followed by a buildup with a new distorted guitar riff, increasing in intensity until it gives way to a beatless reprise of the introduction. On the CD and presumably cassette versions of ''The Fragile,'' "The Mark Has Been Made" ends with a different melody and short fragment of the song "[[10 Miles High]]," a track cut from these whispers: I'm getting closer I'm getting closer I'm getting closer All formats but that appears after "The Mark Has Been Made" on the timevinyl versions of "The Fragile," albeit on a different side.
===The Mark Has Been Made (''And All That Could Have Been'')===
==Live==
Backed by watery and flaming visualsfrom Bill Viola, the live version is more in-your-face. While the structure remains remained basically the same, except for the ending: the first section before the wah guitar is was shortened, and the buildup following it is was more concise. As well, The last section saw the band erupting into an entirely new guitar riff ends , one that seems to echo the live versionascending notes and rhythmic motif of "[[Somewhat Damaged]]" and "[[The Wretched]]", seemingly based with Reznor wailing on the bassline from top. It segued directly into "[[The FrailWish (song)|Wish]]." Musical notation of the live ending bassline:<br>[[Image:Markhasbeenmade_end_score.png]]
