This song is characteristic of the band's early 90s "industrial" sound, as it opens with an eerie, quiet machine-like sound collage that transitions into a nearly identical-sounding musical composition. The lyrics seem to be directed towards an old cohort of [[TrentReznor]]'s, probably female and probably a romantic relationship turned sour.
A demo version of this song, entitled Liar (Reptile Demo), was included on the 10th anniversary re-release of The Downward Spiral.
This song was also featured in the [http://www.nin.com/current/radioshows/index.html Boston, MA radio performance],([[Peter Murphy]], Trent Reznor, [[Atticus Ross]], and [[Jeordie White]]) on June 23, 2006. ===Appearances===*March Of The Pigs (halo)|March Of The Pigs]]*The DOwnward Spiral*[[And All That Could Have Been]] (DVD Easter Egg) ===Versions===*Reptilian*Underneath The Skin*Reptile*Liar (Reptile Demo)*Reptile (And All That Could Have Been) ==Song Credits==*Production: Trent Reznor*Mixing Engineer: [[Alan Moulder]]
==Lyrics==
she She spreads herself wide open to let the insects in she She leaves a trail of honey to show me where she's she’s been she She has the blood of reptile just underneath her skin seeds Seeds from a thousand others drip down from within oh Oh my beautiful liar oh Oh my precious whore my My disease my infection I am so impure devils Devils speak of the ways in which she'll she’ll manifest angels Angels bleed from the tainted touch of my caress need Need to contaminate to alleviate this loneliness I now know the depths I reach are limitless oh Oh my beautiful liar oh Oh my precious whore my My disease my infection I am so impure [[Category: NIN Songs]]
