Just when everything was making sense
You took away all my selfconfidence
Now all that Ive been hearing must be true
I guess Im not the only boy for you
But thats what I get
How could you turn us into this?
After you just taught me how to kiss....you
I told you Id never say goodbye
Now Im slipping on the tears youve made me cry
But thats what I get
Whys it come as a surprise
To think that I was so naive
Maybe didnt mean that much
But it meant everything to me
 
"just when everything was making sense, you took away all my self confidence"
Trent Reznor.

"I still recall the taste of your tears..."
NIN was there during a very dark time in me life (Imagine that! Someone listening to NIN during a depression...)
Anyways, Trent Reznor will always have a place in my heart...
The Becoming
i beat my machine
it's a part of me
it's inside of me
i'm stuck in this dream
it's changing me
i am becoming
the me that you know he had some second thoughts
he's covered with scabs he is broken and sore
the me that you know he doesn't come around much
that part of me isn't here anymore
all pain disappears
it's the nature of
of my circuitry
drowns out all i hear
there's no escape from this
my new consciousness
that me that you know he used to have feelings
but the blood has stopped pumping and he is left to decay
the me that you know is now made up of wires
and even when i'm right with you i'm so far away
i can try to get away but i've strapped myself in
i can try to scratch away the sound in my ears
i can see it killing away all of my bad parts
i don't want to listen but it's all too clear
hiding backwards inside of me
i feel so unafraid
Anne, hold a little tighter
i might just slip away
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
I'm looking forward to joining you, finally
as black as the night can get
everything is safer now
there's always a way to forget
once you learn to find a way how
in the blur of serenity
where did everything get lost?
the flowers of naivete
buried in a layer of frost
the smell of sunshine
i remember sometimes
thought he had it all before they called his bluff
found out that his skin just wasn't thick enough
wanted to go back to how it was before
thought he lost everything
then he lost a whole lot more
a fool's devotion
swallowed up in empty space
the tears of regret
frozen to the side of his face
the smell of sunshine
i remember sometime
i've done all i can do
could i please come with you?
sweet smell of sunshine
i remember sometimes
-----
Sure, it seems somber, but...there's something about blind devotion that gets to me. :)
Thanks, harasser.

I could quote nearly every song by nails and give it some reason why its significant to me but I wont.just one more,to anyone out there who needs a good song to listen to when youre depressed theres none better than this one:
Hurt
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing thats 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 freind
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of
Upon my liars chair
Full of brocken thoughts
I can not repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings dissapear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become?
My sweetest freind
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
 
i love trent... the music, the lyrics, the voice. i'm convinced that no matter what bad thing you're going through/ feeling, there's a nin song you can relate to.
all of trent's songs are really emotional, but 'hurt' and 'something i can never have' make me cry every time i hear them...
something i can never have
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
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
in this place it seems like such a shame
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
come on tell me
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 it all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
i just want something i can never have
 
pretty soon this topic is gonna have to have its name changed to "All the Nails Songs" cause it seems like soon all the lyrics will be here :)
 
Harraser - Like with many lyrics threads, they commonly have reply's featuring other songs by the band. *sigh* Nine means a lot to me. Sure, I couldnt be able to name there songs by hearing them, but I know what they are. I couldnt quote many of the lyrics off hand, but I know them all inside my head. NIN holds a special place in my heart. When I want to be truly angry and laothing, hurt and depressed, this is were I turn. Trent is a genius, both lyrically and technologiaclly. This thread inspired me to throw in The Fragile - Disc one.
Expcet some NIN in my Song lyric of the day posts soon.
My contribution to this thread is
Ring Finger <--- Click To Download
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
anything you ask you know i'll do
this one act of consecration
is what i ask of you
ringfinger
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
you just leave me nailed here
hanging like jesus on this cross
i'll be dying for your sins
and aiding to the cause
ringfinger
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
wrap my eyes in bandages
confessions i see through
i get everything i want
when i get part of you
ringfinger
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
sever flesh and bone and offer it to me
ringfinger
promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger
devil's flesh and bone do something for me

i'm drunk.
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.
nothing quite like the feel of something new.
 
spencer Ive got a remix of ringfinger thats a little wierd,its done by trent but the words are changed to be about bondage,its a little disturbing but you should look for the mp3. I think its called twist but I could be wrong
 
I think I've heard twist before, somewhere... Ill hae to track it down again. Damnit, now I want to listen to nin again...
