About

Eraser is the eleventh song off of The Downward Spiral. It consists of an instrumental ostinato that builds up from the odd sounds of humming and "erasers" at the beginning through heavy rhythmic drumming and very oddly tuned, distorted guitars before dropping out to the vocal area which gets progressively louder as Trent Reznor yells "Kill Me!" until it completely degenerates into noise and cuts off with a high tone.

Song Credits

Production: Flood and Trent Reznor Mixing engineer: Alan Moulder

Performed live

Often played with screen projections of some sort. During the Self Destruct tours, these projections were of desert landscapes and microscopic "chaos". During the With_Teeth tours, these screens progressed from peaceful images of lush meadows and flowers to violent and disturbing images of war. During the Year Zero Warm-Up Tour, small lamps would float directly above each band member and sway back and forth.


Lyrics

    need you
    dream you
    find you
    taste you
    fuck you
    use you
    scar you
    break you 
    lose me
    hate me
    smash me
    erase me
