the perfect drug

i got my head, but my head is unraveling
can't keep control, can't keep track of where it's traveling
i got my heart but my heart is no good
and you're the only one that's understood

i come along but i don't know where you're taking me
i shouldn't go but you're reaching, dragging, shaking me
turn off the sun, pull the stars from the sky
the more i give to you, the more i die

and i want you
and i want you
and i want you
and i want you

you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug

you make me hard, when i'm all soft inside
i see the truth, when i'm all stupid eyed
the arrow goes straight through my heart
without you everything just falls apart

my blood wants to say hello to you
my fears want to get inside of you
my soul is so afraid to realize
every little word is a lack of me

and i want you
and i want you
and i want you
and i want you

you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
you are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug

take me, with you
take me, with you
take me, with you
take me, with you

without you, without you everything falls apart
without you, it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
without you, without you everything falls apart
without you, it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
without you, without you everything falls apart
without you, it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces

burn

this world rejects me
this world threw me away
this world never gave me a chance
this world's gonna have to pay

i don't believe in your institutions
i did what you wanted me to
like cancer in the system
i've got a little surprise for you

something inside of me has opened up its eyes
why did you put it there did you not realize
this thing inside of me it screams the loudest sound
sometimes i think i could

burn

i look down there where you're standing
flock of sheep out on display
saw your lives burned up around you
i can take it all away

something inside of me has opened up its eyes
why did you put it there did you not realize
this thing inside of me it screams the loudest sound
sometimes i think i could

i'm gonna burn this whole world down

i never was a part of you burn

i am your savior (i never was a part of you burn)
i am corruption (i never was a part of you burn)
i am the angel (i never was a part of you burn)
of your destruction (i never was a part of you burn)
i am perversion (i never was a part of you burn)
secret desire (i never was a part of you burn)
i am your future (i never was a part of you burn)
swallowed up in fire

dead souls

someone take these dreams away
that point me to another day
a duel of personalities
that stretch all true reality

they keep calling me
keep on calling me
they keep calling me
keep on calling me

when figures from the past stand tall
and mocking voices ring the hall
imperialistic house of prayer
conquistadores who took their share

they keep calling me
keep on calling me
they keep calling me
keep on calling me

calling me, calling me

they keep calling me
keep on calling me
they keep calling me
keep on calling me

now i'm nothing

i smashed myself to pieces
i am gonna fuck myself up
i'm sifting through the ashes
of what i have become
i threw it all away, now i'm nothing
i let you slip away, now i'm nothing
all that i can do is break myself in two
i fucked it all away, now i'm nothing
wave wave wave wave goodbye
wave wave wave wave goodbye

Practically every one of the top 40 records being played on
every radio station in the United States is a communication to the
children to take a trip, to cop out, to groove. The psychedelic
jackets on the record albums have their own hidden symbols and
messages as well as the lyrics to all the top rock songs and they all
sing the same refrain: It's fun to take a trip, put acid in your veins

I want to reach out and touch the sky
I want to touch the sun, but I don't want to fly
I'm gonna climb up every mountain of the moon
I found a distant route, away with the spoon.

Supernaut
Supernaut

I've crossed the ocean, turned every land
I found the product of your golden rainbow's end
I've been through magic and through life's reality
I've lived a thousand years it never bothered me

Bothered me
Supernaut
Bothered me
Supernaut

They all sing the same refrain:
It's fun to take a trip, put acid in your veins

25 seconds
20 seconds and counting
15 seconds, guidence is internal
12, 11, 10, 9
ignition sequence starts
6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Got no religion, don't need no friends
Got all I want and I got no need to pretend
Don't try to reach me, 'cause I'd tear up your mind
I've seen the future and I leave it all behind

memorabilia

what do your nipples look like?

wherever i go
i take a little piece of you
i collect
i reject
photographs i took of you

well times i passed through
so many faces
so many places
i have got to have a memory
i have never been there
i have never had you

i can't remember
give me your reminder
i collect
i reject

memorabilia
now girl..only it's flavor..bow down here

keychains and snowstorms
the taste of your sweat
the look in your eye
i have been inside you
i know what it feels like
wet as it is..the whiter the honey
i collect
i reject

memorabilia
goodies come in here all day

give me your reminder
i can't remember
i collect
i reject

memorabilia

maybe just once

i can't believe
that what i feel
is finally happening to me
make it hurt
and point a finger
at my insecurities
well i guess i just don't understand
about those complexities in your mind
and i guess i just don't understand
why this world seems so unkind

maybe
maybe just one
i get just what's coming
maybe
maybe just once
i get what's coming to me

so once again
the way you feel
you'll never ever stay the same
and i'm to blame
i wonder just who made
the rules up for this game
well i guess i just don't understand
about what you want and what you need
and i guess i just don't understand
about why this is how it has to be

maybe
maybe just one
i get just what's coming
maybe
maybe just once
i get what's coming to me

so go around
you say those thousand things
you think you have to say
look at me
and tell me love's not such
a hard word word anyway
well how can you can count on me
i thought you realized for sure
and how can you just believe
i thought i deserved a little more

maybe
maybe just once
i get what's coming
maybe
maybe just once
i get what's coming to me

oh god
what's coming
oh god
what's coming to me

purest feeling

purest feeling
purest feeling

well i think i'm gonna push it
as far as it will go
give in to desire
only you will know

so tell me all your secrets
i'll stick it in your head
i wish i could remember
everything she said

purest feeling
purest feeling
purest feeling
purest feeling

well she could be a saviour
with everything she does
or some kind of punishment
for people just like us

i don't really believe she understands
what's happening to me
the sooner that she gets it
the better it will be

purest feeling
purest feeling
purest feeling
purest feeling

i have got to figure it out
i just want to know
i can't live with it

purest feeling

twist

well you've got me working so hard lately
working my hands until they bleed
if i was twice the man i could be
i'd still be half of what you need
still you lead me and i follow
the small of your back up to your chin
over to the tip of your switchblade
as you pull it out as you stick it in

(twist twist twist) it can go a little deeper
(twist twist twist) i'm wearing these chains
(twist twist twist) you make it hurt real good
(twist twist twist) (but?) i love the pain

(twist twist twist) it can go a little deeper
(twist twist twist) i'm wearing these chains
(twist twist twist) you make it hurt real good
(twist twist twist) i love the pain
(twist twist twist)
(twist twist twist)
(twist twist twist)
(twist twist twist)

turn it on

is this on? oh
i'm so tired i can't get to sleep
and the squeaking of the bed
is right in time with the song that's
repeating in my head
its uncomforting to remember how you used to like a good fuck
every once in awhile
i just want you to know
when i do it, i only think of you'

Go to the NIN files ...
Go home...
