Nine Inch Nails Lyrical Quotes

This thing inside of me, it screams the loudest sound Help me, I've got no soul to sell Help me get away from myself My whole existence is flawed I woke up today to find myself in the other place Sometimes I hate everything--yet I wish I felt something When I think I can overcome, it runs even deeper For once in my life I feel complete...and I still want to ruin it Perfect little dream--the kind that hurts the most Gonna smash myself to pieces, I don't know what else to do After everything I've done, I hate myself for what I've become The devils of truth steal the souls of the free The blind have been blessed with security I'd rather die than give you control He sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see He dreamed up a god and called it christianity His perfect kingdom of killing, suffering, and pain demands devotion--atrocities done in his name I hurt myself today to see if I still feel Everyone I know goes away in the end I'm not sure what I should do when everything I'm thinking of is you Maybe god will cover up his eyes Just for tonight we can pretend it's all right My lips may promise, but my heart is a whore Through these blackened eyes you'll see ten thousand lies Dress up this rotten carcass just to make it look alive I am the hate you try to hide and I control you I drag you down, I use you up So many dirty little places in your in your filthy, little, worn-out, broken-down, see-through soul Everything else is dead on the other side Just so you know, I did not believe that you could sink so low I want you hot in my arms I wanna say all those things that would be better unsaid If I was twice the man I could be, I'd still be half of what you need You just leave me nailed here, hanging like Jesus on this cross I get everything I want when I get part of you The words spill out like fire from her lips She walks me through the nicest parts of hell I still dream of lips I never should have kissed I'm just an effigy to be defaced If I can't have everything, well, then just give me a taste I still recall the taste of your tears I'm down to just one thing and I'm starting to scare myself Gray would be the color if I had a heart A fading fucking reminder of who I used to be Hey God, I think you owe me a great big apology Hey God, I believed your promises...your promises and lies I'm on my hands and knees. I want so much to believe The me that you know had some second thoughts Even when I'm right with you I'm so far away It won't give up, it wants me dead Find a place with the failed and forgotten All the world has closed her eyes I'm drunk, and right now I'm so in love with you Lay my hands on heaven and the sun and the moon and the stars Nothing quite like the feel of something new Maybe I'm all messed up, but this is the only time I really feel alive My moral standing is lying down You're the only one that's understood You're wrenching, dragging, shaking me The more I give to you the more I die My blood just wants to say hello to you It's not as much fun to pick up the pieces The farther I fall I'm inside you As lost as I get I will find you
