"Every Day Is Exactly The Same" is the sixth track on the 2005 release With Teeth. It seems to be about addiction and overcoming it. There are also possible references to George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four.

In 2007 it was nominated for the Grammy for "Best Hard Rock Performance" but lost it to "Woman" by Wolfmother.

Song Credits

  • Mix Engineering: James Mullen

Every Day Is Exactly The Same (Interpol Mix Edit)

This track is exclusive to the European 3-track promo, on which it is the second track.

Every Day Is Exactly The Same (Edit)

An uncredited remix of the song from a very limited European promo. It is actually an altered version of the original song, with some lyrics omitted, differences in the overall mix, and a shorter ending. A CD-quality MP3 version was uploaded by Reznor on remix.nin.com.

Every Day Is Exactly The Same (Live At Rehearsals)

This version of the song is exclusive to the Beside You In Time DVD. It was filmed and recorded in the band's rehearsal space in early 2005.

Music Video

There were plans for a music video to be directed by Francis Lawrence, edited by Mario Mares, with Max Goldman as director of photography, but it was scrapped during post-production, not long after details about the video leaked to the web. Reznor commented on the scrapped video on Echoing the Sound:

    Regarding EDIETS, there will be no video released. I made a mistake.
    The good news is that mistake has acted as a catalyst for me to 
    rethink a number of decisions regarding the direction and position of 
    the band I've made and will be making in the future.
    The enemies from outside and within have been identified and I am back on track.

Lyrics

    I believe I can see the future
    Because I repeat the same routine
    I think I used to have a purpose
    And then again that might have been a dream
    I think I used to have a voice
    Now I never make a sound
    I just do what I've been told
    I really don't want them to come around
    Oh no
    
    Every day is exactly the same
    There is no love here and there is no pain
    Every day is exactly the same
    
    I can feel their eyes are watching
    In case I lose myself again
    Sometimes I think I'm happy here
    Sometimes I still pretend
    I can't remember how this all got started
    But I can tell you —exactly— How it will end
    
    Every day is exactly the same
    Every day is exactly the same
    There is no love here and there is no pain
    Every day is exactly the same
    
    I'm writing on a little piece of paper
    I'm hoping someday you might find
    I'll hide it behind something
    They don't look behind
    I am still inside here
    A little bit comes bleeding through
    I wish this could have been any other way
    I just don't know what else I can do
    
    Every day is exactly the same

Additional lyrics printed in the With Teeth PDF booklet, but not appearing in the song itself

    And I've rehearsed my lines
    And I know what's coming next
