How did I slip into (this)?
02. 1,000,000 Music & lyrics by Nine Inch Nails
Kind of hard
Hard to see When you crawl On your hands and your knees With your face In the trough Wait your turn While they finish you off Don't know when it started Don't know how Should have found out Should have happened by now Got these lines On my face After all this time And I still haven't found my place I jump from every rooftop So high so far to fall I feel a million miles away I don't feel any thing at all I wake up On the floor Start it up again Like it matters anymore I don't know If it does Is this really all That there ever was? Put the gun In my mouth Close your eyes Blow my fucking brains out Pretty patterns On the floor That's enough for you But I still need more I jump from every rooftop So high so far to fall I feel a million miles away I don't feel any thing at all... 03. Letting You Music & lyrics by Nine Inch Nails
The sky is painted black
The smoke pours out the stack One hand upon your heart One hand behind your back You train us how to act You keep the fear intact The imminent attack Everything is right on track And we are letting you get away We are letting you get away with it Upon our plates to feed The dying left to bleed How much we really need Your politics of greed The cancer takes a hold The wolf is in the fold Our destiny's been sold We do just what we're told And we are letting you get away We are letting you get away with it Your armies filled with hate Believing your charade Begin to suffocate For us it's far too late And we are letting you get away We are letting you get away with it... 04. Discipline Music & lyrics by Nine Inch Nails
Am I still tough enough?
Feels like I'm wearing down Is my viciousness Losing ground? Am I taking too much Did I cross a line I need my role in this Very clearly defined I need your discipline I need your help I need your discipline You know once I start I cannot help myself And now it's starting up feels like I'm losing touch Nothing matters to me Nothing matters as much I see you left a mark Up and down my skin I don't know where I end And where you begin I need your discipline I need your help I need your discipline You know once I start I cannot help myself Once I start I cannot stop myself... 05. Echoplex Music & lyrics by Nine Inch Nails
Nice and high and far apart
Just like they said I built this place with broken parts Just like they said You chip away the old version of you You'd be surprised at what you can do I'm safe in here Irrelevant Just like they said My voice just echoes off these walls You feel me breathe I am watching you I see it all The many ways you can't get to me I see it all I see the Hell you put yourself through Oh the things I could do (if I wanted to) My voice just echoes off these walls My voice just echoes off these walls I don't need anything at all My voice just echoes off these walls And I just slowly fade away You will never ever get to me in here... 06. Head Down Music & lyrics by Nine Inch Nails
You
What you looking at? Head down Too late for that What you want What you get Know your place Don't ever forget And this is not my face And this is not my life And there is not a single thing here I can recognize This is all a dream And none of you are real I'll give anything I'll give anything Hey you What you running from? All your hate What you've become Bet you didn't think It would happen to you All used up Half way through And this is not my face And this is not my life And there is not a single thing here I can recognize This is all a dream And none of you Are real I'll give anything I'll give anything... 07. Lights In The Sky Music & lyrics by Nine Inch Nails
She's mostly gone
Some other place I'm getting by In other ways Everything they whispered in our ear Is coming true Try to justify the things They used to do Believe in you Watching you drown I'll follow you down I am here right beside you The lights in the sky Have finally arrived I am staying right beside you I tried to stay away Just in case I've come to realize We all have our place Time time has a way you know To make it clear I have my role in this I can't disappear Or leave you here Watching you drown I'll follow you down I am here right beside you The lights in the sky Are waving goodbye I am staying right beside you... 08.

10. Demon Seed Music & lyrics by Nine Inch Nails
It keeps growing
And I can feel it breathe I have been trying To behave myself It keeps growing And I can feel it breathe I have been trying To tolerate you Well I am reaching the point Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I thought maybe I thought this would go away But it continues The only constant Every day Stronger I will use my voice And I will use my fist To destroy Everything I can Now I know What this is all about Now I know Exactly what I am There is A seed Inside of me That makes me... |
