    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 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 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.

    my teenage years on prozac... thankfully nin made me feel not alone. This is an amazing live cover with guitars instead of synthesizers, which is technically bitchin.
    badass

    I've kinda always had a tough time with her vocals, deciding if I liked them or not.
    I'd be lying if I said I didn't think she killed it here.
    The People ragging on this, saying how they're "NIN fans" need to chill the fuck out about as much as the band around her does.
    If Trent had never written this and you heard this version only, most would say it's a good song. Imo.

    If there was ever going to be a cover of this song. Fuck me. This was done properly. Dig it.

    a different energy brought to it but both music and vocals captured the feeling of the original song which is more important than anything else when doing a cover. i had never heard flyleaf before but after seeing this i will definitely check them out, thanks!
