    Can yall please stop hating.. Im from Waco Flyleaf is from Temple this girl has a beautiful voice..I am huge fan of all of Trent Reznors music and How to destroy angels.. And I bet Trent would like this song.. So if yall are true NIN fans you should love this.. Just think about walking into a bar and seeing this little girl singing this song on karaoke.. Yall would never boo her off stage.. So seriously quit..

    People should be happy that other bands cover their favorite artists songs. For good or bad. It reminds us that who we love is influential, and that other people have the respect to pay homage. Trent Reznor is one of the most talented artists in the last 25 years - of course all these other artists are going to want to play the songs that they grew up on. So respect them for it.

    I don't understand why people must criticize so harshly when people make covers of songs. I adore her voice, and her presence and what not. And I also enjoy the original version by NIN. When someone covers a song it's not supposed to be identical to the original, it's nice to hear it changed up and altered to fit that person's voice, musical abilities and so forth.

    I still recall the taste of your tears
    Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
    My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
    Scraping through my head til i don't want to sleep anymore
    You make this all go away
    You make this all go away
    I'm down to just one thing
    And i'm starting to scare myself
    You make this all go away
    You make this all go away
    I just want something i just want something i can never have
    You always were the one to show me how
    Back then i couldn't do the things
    that i can do now
    This thing is slowly taking me apart
    Grey would be the color if i had a heart
    Come on tell me
    You make this all go away
    You make this all go away
    I'm down to just one thing
    And i'm starting to scare myself
    You make this all go away
    You make this all go away
    I just want something i just want something i can never have
    In this place it seems like such a shame
    Though it all looks different now,
    I know it's still the same
    Everywhere i look you're all i see
    Just a fading reminder of who i used to be
    Come on tell me
    You make this all go away
    You make this all go away
    I'm down to just one thing
    And i'm starting to scare myself
    You make this all go away
    You make this all go away
    I just want something
    I just want something i can never have

    This was the music era I grew up in.
    You don't want to know how many of my friends played this song before entering the forever box.
    I look back on this today and wonder how stupid they would feel if they were in my current position.
    Self harm is just never worth it.
    It doesn't get easier as we adult, but I have a paid off home, several paid off cars, an 847 credit score and a FAMILY.
    Plot twist...Our parents we right all along. I bet they would feel stupid today.

    This is beyond epic.... I she’d have said “just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to me”. The power would have been off the Richter scale

      I agree. I think they have some Christian backgrouns which I presume was the reason.

    Saw Em (was supposed to be the 3rd Time, didn't catch Em the 2nd Time) for the last Time in 2008 ... for Free!! They did this Song, and it took Me by Surprise! It Was Awesome!!
