La-a, la-a, la-a-a-a-a
La-a, la-a (ya-a-a-a-a-a)

NOTES
- “Dying Inside” was written for previous albums but was never used.
- “Dying Inside which was written on the tour for No Need To Argue in 1994. We tried recording it on the TTFD session and on the BTH session but we never quite captured it until now.” (Fergal, cranberries.ie, 30 October 2001)
