[OOC] [NiN songlist]
NiN - Something I can never have (again)
I still recall the taste of your tears.
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.
You make this all go away.
You make this all go away.
I'm down to just one thing, and I'm starting to scare myself.
You make this all go away
You make this all go away
I just want something...
I just want something I can never have.
You always were the one to show me how.
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now.
This thing is slowly taking me apart.
Grey would be the color, if I had a heart.
Come on tell me
NiN - Non-Entity
Try to stand in line, try to obey.
The ghosts of what I was keep getting in the way.
Staring at the sun, blinded by the light
Now I'm afraid I'm fading out of sight.
The echoes in my eyes, of all they used to see.
Burning down the world, the ashes and debris.
And all that's left of you, and all that's left of me.
All have washed away, non-entity.
NiN - Discipline
Am I, am I still tough enough?
Feels like I'm wearing down.
Is my viciousness losing ground?
Am I taking too much?
Did I cross the 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.
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 the skin.
I don't know where I end, or where you begin.
NiN - Lights in the Sky
I tried to stay away, you know. Just in case.
I've come to realize, we all have our place
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,
And I am here right beside you.
The lights in the sky, are waving goodbye.
I am staying right beside you.
NiN - Hurt
I hurt myself today, to see if I still feel.
I focus on the pain, the only thing that's real.
The needle tears a hole, the old familiar sting.
Try to kill it all away, but I remember everything.
What have I become? My sweetest friend.
Everyone I know, goes away in the end.
You could have it all, my empire of dirt.
I will let you down. I will make you hurt.
I wear this crown of shit, upon my liar's chair.
Full of broken thoughts, I cannot repair.
Beneath the stains of time, the feeling disappears.
You are someone else, I am still right here.
NiN - The Hand That Feeds
You're keeping in step in the line.
Got your chin held high and you feel just fine.
Because you do what you're told,
but inside your heart it is black and it's hollow and it's cold.
Just how deep do you believe?
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you wanna change it?
What if this whole crusades a charade?
And behind it all there's a price to be paid.
For the blood, which we dine,
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine.
NiN - Closer
You let me violate you
You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you
You let me complicate you
(Help me...)
I broke apart my insides
(Help me...)
I've got no soul to sell
(Help me...)
The only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself,
I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God
You can have my isolation
You can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith
You can have my everything
NiN - The Fragile
But it's too late for me.
I wont let you fall apart.
We'll find the perfect place to go where we can run and hide
I'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side
...but they keep waiting
...and picking.
It's something I have to do
I was there, too,
before everything else.
I was like you.
NiN - Getting Smaller
Getting a little erratic here and I don't know who to trust
I guess they got a way of reading my mind
I guess I got to adjust
I've got my arms that flip flop flip flop flip
I got my head on spring
Well I thought I got you on my side
I haven't got fucking anything
I'm just a face in the crowd
Nothing to worry about
Not even trying to stand out
I'm getting smaller and smaller and smaller
And I got nothing to say
It's all been taken away
I just behave and obey
I'm afraid I am starting to fade away
Uh huh
I kind of see through the cracks when I press up on the wall
I'm not looking to stand up real high, I'd be happy to crawl
I think I'm losing my grip, but I can still make a fist
You know I still got my one good arm that I can beat
I can beat myself up with
Hey, and for what it was worth I really used to believe
That maybe there's some great thing that we could achieve
And now I can't tell the difference or know what to feel
Between what I've been trying so hard to see
And what appears to be real
Fading away
My world is getting smaller everyday
Hey hey hey hey, and that's okay
NiN - Right Where it Belongs
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks?
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?
What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods
All the living and the dead
And you're really all alone?
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees
NiN - The Beginning Of The End
Down on your knees
You'll be left behind
This is the beginning
Watch what you think
They can read your mind
This is the beginning
I got my mark, see it in my eyes
This is the beginning
Well my reflection I don't recognize
This is the beginning
We think we've climbed so high
Up all the backs we've condemned
We face no consequence
This is the beginning of the end
