Versions
I Would For You
This is the only known version. A beat loop characterised by quick double kicks opens this track, with deep bass and quiet vocals creating the first verse. Choruses open up with a simpler, clearer drum loop, a different bassline, and strange guitar layering that acts like a strings keyboard patch, creating a large stage for Reznor's loud and echoing vocals. The second chorus is followed by a new distorted guitar riff, which repeats as synth and percussion layers build; these eventually give way to a solitary piano melody, which quietly segues into "In Two" in a method recalling "Lights in the Sky" becoming "Corona Radiata" on The Slip.
Lyrics
What a pathetic stray of words Just leave them laying on the floor The one posted on the door Not over here, not anymore There I was a place I could have been Step over where it used to be Since you redeemed yourself Come in Some things I'd rather you not see See I keep lying to myself Don't know what else there is to do If I can be somebody else Well I think I would for you Didn't it seem like something more So long I can't remember when All this has happened all before And this has happened all again And I only have myself to blame And I only have myself to blame See I keep lying to myself Don't know what else there is to do If I can be somebody else Well I think I would for you See I keep lying to myself Don't know what else there is to do If I can be somebody else Well I think I would for you
