About
Into The Void is the second song on the Right side of the double album The Fragile. It was released as a single in Australia, where it was incorrectly labelled as Halo 16. The track Slipping Away is an extended form of an earlier version of this song, and it included on the remix album Thing Falling Apart.
Musical Themes
Into The Void is one of several songs on The Fragile that shares a melody with one or more other songs. La Mer could be considered to be the musical 'prequel' to Into The Void.
Performed Live
Into The Void was performed live several times on the Fragility tours, and began seeing regular rotation starting with the With Teeth Summer Amphitheatre Tour.
Lyrics
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away Talking to myself all the way to the station Pictures in my head of the final destination All lined up (all the ones that arent allowed to stay) Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away Tried to save a place from the cuts and the scratches Tried to overcome the complications and the catches Nothing ever grows and the sun doesnt shine all day Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
