This is the only known version. It begins with its bassline and some atmosphere layering, soon joined by a beat which also refines the bassline into muted chunks. Distant and manipulated vocals sing the verses below these, while prominent guitar and louder vocals with many high notes create the choruses. They also feature backing vocal harmony layering reminiscent of "[[Every Day Is Exactly The Same (song)|Every Day is Exactly the Same]]." Its second chorus suddenly gives way to a quiet bridge of bass and piano with muted percussion layers, building with distant and whispering vocals. These usher in a return to the chorus but with 'swarm' guitar layers and a more realistic-sounding, tom-led drum beat. After two repetitions of the chorus, the instrumentation ends, allowing the vocal echoes to fade away alone.

The blood from my own hand
The first line of each chorus also seems to omit the word "it".
