}}'''"Leaving Hope"''' is the final song of ''[[The Fragile (halo)|The Fragile]]'' era, closing off ''[[Still]].'' It is a slow-paced, layered [[:Category:NIN Instrumentals|instrumental]] with an extended fadeout at the end.

It uses a synthesizer pad built from samples of [[Trent Reznor]]'s voice, also utilized in "[[The Frail]]."

In December 2005, Reznor granted a gratis license to an advertising agency to use the song in a [http://mentalhealth.samhsa.gov/disasterrelief/psa.aspx public service announcement] to promote a mental health hotline for those affected by Hurricane Katrina.

The piece shares its name with Reznor's former music publishing entity.
