| its about self hate, an obsession for someone, he loves this person so much, they can have his all, eventhough its not a lot. He WANTS he NEEDS this person, they make him feel alright again, the sex takes his pain away; short term release xx | |

| Recently, I did a speech in my communications class (my major) about censorship. I used this song as an opener, and wow... let me tell you, the class (which has people from 18-45 years old) LOVED this song. It really helped get my anti-censorship message across, somehow. | |

| The song is great. I think the idea of what it's about has been addressed. It's just a shame that NIN will forever be remembered by non-fans as a band that made a song about violent sex. | |
