The Way Out Is Through
The song begins with scratching noises and ambient sounds layered together. An underwater-like melody begins to play, with Reznor whispering above them. The melody stops, and tone of the song shifts, becoming darker, as the song gradually builds to its climax. A looped guitar and drum stream is played throughout with electronic noises moving on top. Finally, the guitars come in, and Reznor yells out the chorus, ending the song's climax. The song fades out with more ambient noise and whispering, providing a small segue to "Into The Void."
Live
During the Fragility v1.0 tour, the song was traditionally played in a lower key and its climax marked the end of the "slow section," with the curtain rising and leading into "Wish."
Lyrics
All I've undergone
I will keep on
Underneath it all
We feel so small
The heavens fall
But still we crawl
All I've undergone
I will keep on
