pretty hate machine
god money i'll do anything for you
head like a hole
bow down before the one you serve
god money's not looking for the cure
you know who you are
hey god, why are you doing this to me?
terrible lie
hey god, i really don't know what you mean
terrible lie
don't take it away from me
hey god, there's nothing left for me to hide
you made me throw it all away
my head is filled with disease
i need someone to hold on to
i give you everything
kinda like a cloud i was up way up
in the sky
i was up above it
well shut up so what what does it matter
now i was swimming in the haze now i crawl on the ground and everything i never liked about you is kind of seeping into me try to laugh about it now but isn't it funny how everything works out "i guess the jokes on me" she said
i was up above it
i was up above it
i used to be so big and strong
i used to have something inside
i'll cross my heart and hope to die
but the needle's already in my eye and all the world's weight is on my back and i don't even know why and what i used to think was me is just a fading memory i looked him right in the eye and said "goodbye"
i was up above it
it's still getting worse after everything i tried
if she says come inside i'll come inside for her
heaven's just a rumor she'll dispel
if she says come inside i'll come inside for her
dear mom and dad, this is the hardest letter i've ever had to write
i'm just caught up in another of her spells
if she says come inside i'll come inside for her
as surely as the blades course is run
i still recall the taste of my tears
come on tell me
you always were the one to show me how
i just want something i can never have
in this place it seems like such a same
come on tell me
think i know what you meant
i can't shake this feeling from my head
i know it's not the right thing
i'm not sure of what i should do
i know it's not the right thing
maybe just for tonight
you give me the reason
it comes down to this
you give me the anger
it comes down to this
just when everything was making sense
but that's what i get
how could you turn us into this?
but that's what i get
why does it come as a surprise
but that's what i get
i'm drunk
nothing quite like the feel of something new
i swear
nothing quite like the feel of something new
well you've got me working so heard lately
ringfinger
you just left me nailed here
ringfinger
wrap my eyes in bandages
ringfinger
ringfingerhead like a hole
god money just tell me what you want me to
god money nail me up against the wall
god money don't want everything he wants it all
no you can't take it
no you can't take it
no you can't take that away from me
no you can't take it
no you can't take it
no you can't take that away from me
black as your soul
i'd rather die than give you control
head like a hole
black as your soul
i'd rather die than give you control
you're going to get what you deserve
bow down before the one you serve
you're going to get what you deserve
god money's not concerned with the sick amongst the pure
god money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised
god money's not one to choose
terrible lie
am i not living up to what i'm supposed to be
why am i seething with this animosity?
hey god, i think you owe me a great big apology
terrible lie
terrible lie
terrible lie
seems like salvation comes only in our dreams
i feel my hatred grow all the more extreme
hey god, can this world really be as sad as it seems
terrible lie
terrible lie
terrible lie
i need someone to hold on to
don't take it away from me
i need someone to hold on to
i lost my ignorance, security and pride
i'm all alone in a world you must despise
hey god, i believed the promises, the promises and lies
my morals left to decay
how many you betray
you've taken everything
terrible lie
my skin is begging you please
i'm on my hands and knees
i want so much to believe
i need someone to hold on to
i need someone
i need someone
i need someone to hold on to
my sweet everything
hey God, i really don't know who i am
in this world of piss
down in it
and i was feeling some feelings you wouldn't believe
sometimes i don't believe them myself
and i decided i was never coming down
just then a tiny little dot caught my eye
it was just about too small to see but i watched it way too long
and that dot was pulling me down
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i used to know my right from wrong
i used to never be afraid
i used to be somebody
now just this hole that's open wide
i used to want it all
i used to be somebody
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it
i was up above it
sanctified
what if i found a way to wash it all aside
what if she touches with those fingertips
as the words spill out like fire from her lips
if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified
i am purified
i am sanctified
inside you
as she walks me through the nicest parts of hell
i still dream of lips i never should have never kissed
well she knows exactly what i can't resist
if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified
i am purified
i am sanctified
inside you
i'd hoped somehow to get out of this quickly so that you'd never have to know about it, but that just isn't possible now
i don't know what's going to happen, but what can i say to you? will i'm sorry make a difference? will it ease the pain?
the shame you must be feeling
forgive me please
she's turning me into someone else
everyday i hope and pray this will end
but when i can i do it all again
if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified
i am purified
i am sanctified
inside you
maybe my kingdom's finally come
something i can never have
echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
my favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
scraping through my head 'till i don't want to sleep anymore
make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just to thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
make this all go away
you make this all go way
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now
this is slowly take me apart
grey would be the color if i had a heart
though it all looks different now, i know it's still the same
everywhere i look you're all i see
just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be
make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just to thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
make this all go away
you make this all go way
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
i just want something i can never have
that night on my bed
still picking at this scab
i wish you were dead
you sweet and perry ellis
just stains on my sheets
kinda i want to
there's a devil sleeping in my bed
he's watching you from across the way
i cannot make this feeling go away
and I know it's not the good thing
but kinda i want to
when everything i'm think of is you
all of my excuses turn to lies
maybe god will cover up his eyes
and I know it's not the good thing
but kinda i want to
we can pretend it's alright
what's the price i pay
i don't care what they say
i want to
i want to (i'll take my chance tonight)
sin
you give me control
i gave you my purity
my purity you stole
did you think i wouldn't recognize this compromise
am i just too stupid to realize
stale incense old sweat and lies lies lies
your kiss
your fist
and your strain
it get's under my skin
within
take in the extent of my sin
you give me the nerve
carry out the sentence
i get what i deserve
i'm just an effigy to be defaced
to be disgraced
your need for me has been replaced
and if i can't have everything well then just give me a taste
your kiss
your fist
and your strain
it get's under my skin
within
take in the extent of my sin
that's what i get
you took away all my self-confidence
now all that i've been hearing must be true
i guess i'm not the only boy for you
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
after you just taught me how to kiss you
I told you i'd never say goodbye
now i'm slipping on the tears you made me cry
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
to think that i was so naive
maybe didn't mean so much
but it meant everything to me
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
the only time
and right now i'm so in love with you
and i don't want to think too much about what we should or shouldn't do
lay my hands on heaven and the sun and the moon and the stars
while the devil wants to fuck me in the back of his car
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
this is the only time i really feel alive
this is the only time i really feel alive
i just found everything i need
the sweat in your eyes the blood in your veins are listening to me
well i want to drink it up and swim in it until i drown
my moral standing is lying down
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
this is the only time i really feel alive
this is the only time i really feel alive
ringfinger
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
anything you ask you know i'll do
but this one act of consecration is what i ask of you
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
hanging like Jesus on the cross
i'll be dying for your sins
and aiding to the cause
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
confessions i see through
i get everything i want
when i get part of you
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
devil's flesh and bone
do something for me
Go to the NIN files ...
