"I'd listen to the words he'd say but in his voice I heard decay the plastic face forced to portray all the insides left cold and gray there is a place that still remains it eats the fear it eats the pain the sweetest price he'll have to pay the day the whole world went away"

This is the best version of this song, in my opinion. It seems to have a much deeper meaning this way.

"where this song ends... i begin." fucking beautiful. I was so fucking angry and sad right now and not only has this song helped but knowing someone else feels it the way I do is so fucking reassuring. I'm sending all my good vibes to you and yours.

So many people in pain, yet it still feels just as lonely.

Then I went through a hole in my wall and proceeded to have the most surreal experience on mushrooms I've ever had.

Exactly. The name of the song itself is a great way of describing what it feels like to lose someone like that as nothing seems the same anymore as if the world has dissapeared. That's why I love Trent as he always is able to describe and articulate his emtions, not only through lyrics but through the music as well.

Always loved this song, there's a simplicity to it. Possibly my fav song.

What is it when a person who has everything going for them commits suicide? I've grappled with this for two years since a family member committed suicide and the lyrics remind me of this person in every detail. What really matters in life definitely isn't money, or materials....its much more than that. And his whole world going away left many other worlds empty. If anyone is grappling with suicide please know that I sincerely love you whoever you are.

Don't be sorry. own it. take it. tear it down. rebuild it. use it for whatever you may need. and when you no longer need it, give it away. That is what Trent did for us all by bringing his melodic madness to our ears.

i have this CD, yet forgot it years ago..it's not on spotify. Finding this version is so sweet. One of my favorite songs that got lost in the mix of life

i love how nin's music evoke such vivid images in my head.

..I've read rumors this song is possibly about Trent's grandmothers' passing, who he was very close with. I think this video is beautiful and artistic and portray's the mood perfectly. The close up shots of the flowers seem like they are portraying the flowers at her funeral. I love the artistic expression, because they look ugly and grimm in the video-which has always been more depressing to me when attending a funeral. Flowers are "suppose" to make you feel happy, cheerful, joyful when you view them, but when you feel so sad, they seem ugly, dead, and cold. I also really like the closeup's of Trent's face in black and white. 2:42 is my favorite part. Great job on the video, motorde, you nailed it.

The Fragile is a highly underrated album. Don't know why fans dislike this one. Hopefully one day a 20th anniversary edition of The Fragile is released with all remixes and quiet versions on a third disc along with a DVD with 5.1 version of the album and videos.The whispering at the beginning of the song is pretty creepy, but I mean that in a good way. The building of the song in the start is great. The remix goes well with this video. Good job.

Wow ... thanks for sharing that ... very moving.

this song is genius a great reflection of clarity to the mind spirit and body if you listen closley it feels as if you fade to anoyther place where you feel absolutley isolated from the world that has been brought to you this place is quiet and almost like the day the world went away.how can people not see the beauty in this masterpiece its almost like there guided into ignorence from how they were brought up but dont blame them for how they portey things its only reflections of thereown reality

Unfortunately he was never able to get over a betrayal from a girl he loved and went to a dark place that secretly ate away at him for years, no one would have ever thought but the pain he held deep down eventually became too much for him and he took his own life. No matter what perception you have of someone, you never know what they may be going through.

This song is about the death of Trent's grandmother Clara, but it's more specifically about her funeral. Trent speaking about priest burying his grandmother/cremating her. On the outside, he looks calm and collected, knowing it's his job. But on the inside, it pains him to have to lay another one to rest. Years of these rituals has made his face plastic.. emotionless in front of death which has left him cold and grey. His mind forces him remain apathetic about having to put someone to rest infront of many loved ones, breaking down. The sweetest price the priest will have to pay? When he has to lay the entire world to rest and the whole world goes away. The song is dedicated The priest and his grandmother.. The person who was calm while everyone else was breaking down..
