==Versions==
*===Not So Pretty Now===The studio version of the song was finally released on March 20, 2009 as part of the ''NINJA 2009 Summer Tour '' EP. The recording dates back to the ''With Teeth''era. Texturally and melodically, this song has a somewhat similar feel to both "[[The Collector]]" and "[[Getting Smaller]]", but with a more upbeat garage rock style. It is driven by a chunky, distorted bassline and a post-punk revival type drum beat. The choruses during the second half feature richly layered harmonies.

Coming soon.This song made its live debut on [[2005/09/19 Phoenix, AZ|September 19, 2005]] and was played once during the [[Wave Goodbye Tour]] in [[2009/05/12 Austin, TX]]
== Lyrics ==
You let them like to open it up real wide
Then you let everyone come inside
There's always something you 've got to hide
So you lied and you lied and you lied
Make sure you grab everything that you need
You got a hole that you 've got to feed
Keep trying to fill it all up with your greed
But it bleeds and it bleeds and it bleeds
Go Well go take a little more
We'll scrape you off the floor
We love you anyhow
Nobody burns quite as bright
Well goddamn, maybe you're right
There's always battles all left for you to fight
And you might, you might, you just might
But there is something I 've got to say There is a price you're going to gonna pay
Try as hard as you can to stay
But youYou're just fading, and fading, and fading the fuck away
Go Well go take a little more
We'll scrape you off the floor
We love you anyhow
But you're not so pretty now
Go Well go take a little more
We'll scrape you off the floor
We love you anyhow
We love you anyhow
But you're not so pretty now
Better turn the lights down low
The cracks begin to show
We all love you anyhow
But you're not so pretty now
Soon Well soon you will be gone We And we will all move on
You never mattered anyhow
But And you're not so pretty now Sometimes Reznor would sing the last line of the second verse slightly different: But you're just fading, and fading, and fading the fuck away
