==Versions==
===The New Flesh===
This is the original version. Fading in with a synthesizer whine and various manipulations and reversed effects, Reznor's spoken vocals are accompanied by clocks ticking, a synthesized bass loop and chromatic piano improvisation, the latter a feature shared with "[[The Way Out Is Through]]." The layers ebb and flow through the first half of the track, eventually crossfading with a distorted full band coda, similar in composition to the muffled ending of "[[The Downward Spiral (song)|The Downward Spiral]]." As the guitar, bassline and drums fade in, Reznor yells over top, eventually joined by loud crowd loops. The entirety of this 3/4 coda fades out and filters down the low and mid frequencies, the high pitches stopping suddenly. ===The New Flesh (Instrumental)===Released on ''The Fragile: Deviations 1''. Also known as "The New Flesh" (Alt) when it was originally released on Apple Music as part of ''The Fragile Instrumental''. Both versions are musically identical.
===The New Flesh (thingsfallingapart.com version a)===One of two versions released on NIN.com during ''The Fragile'' era.'Running Time: 1:19'''''
===The New Flesh Used as accompanying music for the official [[thingsfallingapart.com|website]] for ''[[Things Falling Apart]]'', this short remix was released officially through [[remix.nin.com]] as a high quality MP3 in 2007. Also released in this fashion was another, [[Untitled (version bfrom thingsfallingapart.com)===One |untitled piece of music]]. Those two versions released on NINtracks, prior to remix.nin.com, were ripped from thingsfallingapart.com during ''and called "The New Flesh" (Version A) and "The Fragile'' eraNew Flesh" (Version B). Compared to their officially-released 2007 counterparts, Version A and Version B are basically the same, with minor mastering and fade out variations.
===Complications Of The Flesh===
'''''Running Time: 6:38''''' This remix, created by [[Danny Lohner]], combines "The New Flesh" with "[[Complication]]" and appears exclusively on Part 3 of the ''We're In This Together'' single===The New Flesh (''And All That Could Have Been'')===The song's most recognizable elements (the bassline, clock sounds, and synth whine) are used to form much of the menu music for the DVD version of ''[[And All That Could Have Been (halo)|And All That Could Have Been]]'', in addition to those elements being combined with the guitar riff of "[[Pinion]]"to form the DVD introduction. It is not included on the audio CD release.
==Live==
Although the song [[NIN songs never played live|has never been performed live in its entirety]], during instrumental portions were combined with "[[Pinion]]" to form the introduction for the [[Fragility]] tour instrumental portions were cross faded into ". [[PinionTrent Reznor]]sang the lyrics " Give it to form a prerecorded me, I can take it!" at least once over top of the introduction. This was done again on the [[NIN 2014 Europe/UK Tour]], but it was combined with "[[The Downward Spiral (song)|The Downward Spiral]]" instead of "Pinion".
==Lyrics==
1
I can take it
Sideways
Waves
Of every feeling ever felt
Come screaming…screaming
2
Hold it close
(So) I can taste it
3
I've watched this scene a thousand times
And in my head
This has begun
4
I can almost see
The blackest eyes
The new flesh
A new disguise
...Welcoming...…Welcoming…
Please
5
Give it to me
I can take it
Give it to me
I can take it Reznor also repeats an unprinted phrase through the coda of the song, which sounds like: I've become [alive]==External Links==*[http://archive.org/details/remix-nin-com-audio-00907 "The New Flesh" (thingsfallingapart.com version) at archive.org]
