Instrumental by Nine Inch Nails, which appears on Halo 5: Broken.

Not what you would expect, based on the title. Not filled with raging guitars and shrieking distortion and pounding percussion.

But when you listen to the song, and think about it, it makes perfect sense. It becomes a bit disturbing. All that's here is a simple, mournful guitar line. Quiet and understated. It's not a cry for help, it's a whisper.


Even more disturbing is the music video, which (AFAIK) is only available on the closure VHS set.

The video consists of a man in a small room eating a steak dinner. He is covered in flies. Buzzing all around him, in his food, in his wine. Crawling up his arms, in his mouth, on his eyes.

He just eats his dinner, with no regard to the flies at all. His face is impassive. His eyes are screaming.
