i REALLY enjoy this song. it does a great job illustrating two people who, acutely aware of their incompatibility with each other, still fight to save the deep connection between them. that's pathos-inspiring right there, watching two people struggle to come back together even though they know they're both doomed if they succeed. i think this is why i liked eternal sunshine of the spotless mind so much. even though carrey/winslet and the nine inch nails song are both pathetic, and irrational, they both come to the same conclusion...

just because the battle can't be won,
doesn't mean it's not worth fighting.

this is a powerful message. and yes, like most of trent reznor's work, this is a very powerful song, too. faith is truly impressive when the odds really are insurmountable.
