"Non Entity" is a song that Trent Reznor composed for the MTV program React Now in an effort to support people displaced by hurricane Katrina in August of 2005.
This song was first played in the aforementioned program, and later became part of the set list in the With Teeth tours. The tours also included "Not So Pretty Now," another song from the With Teeth outtakes. During a chat with fans in the official NIN fan club, The Spiral, Reznor stated that these songs were outtakes from the With Teeth sessions, and studio recordings of them might one day surface. A live recording of "Non-Entity" appears on Beside You In Time. [1]
Lyrics
The sky is not the same shade of blue Every single thing I believe isn’t true Missing in the maze of monochrome How did I get here, how can I go home The echoes in my eyes, of all they used to see Burning down the world, the ashes and debris And all that’s left to me, non-entity... Try to stand the line, try to obey The ghost of what I was keep getting in the way Staring at the sun, I’m blinded by the light Now I’m afraid I’m fading out of sight The echoes in my eyes, of all they used to see Burning down the world, the ashes and debris And all that’s left of you, and all that’s left of me All have washed away, non-entity...
