Scott's Metal Track of the Day - The Day the World Went Away by Nine Inch Nails

Today's Metal Track is The Day the World Went Away by Nine Inch Nails. This is off of his 1999 album The Fragile. Surprisingly this is NIN's highest charting single and the only one to break the top 20.

This song was used in the Terminator Salvation movie trailer back in 2009. It was also used in a recent episode of Person of Interest. I have never seen that showbut apparently it was used when one of the characters died.

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
