Changes

This is the original album version. It starts quietly with a dark, uneasy drone fading in from the end of "[[The Line Begins To Blur]]," which remains prominently throughout the entirety of the song and swells in volume in time with the simple drum loop(a technique known as sidechain compression. [[Trent ) Reznor]]'s long verse syllables are joined by a percussive yet melodic loop moving with the drum loop, fading away through the simple and repetitious chorus. The second chorus ends and drops out all elements but the drone, which stops swelling quickly and increases in volume until the drum loop enters once more and sets the drone swelling again. This leads into a loud, powerful, guitar-driven coda, its rhythmic pace matching the 16th note pulse evident throughout the track. The guitar riff changes after Reznor's high register singing, drawing this section to a close and leaving the swelling drone and drum loop to crossfade with the introductory soundscape of "[[Right Where It Belongs]]."
